Another kitchen



In contrast to the yellow kitchen, here's one I found via the Shorpy blog. And I must admit, I love this one too, for it's simplicity. Add a refrigerator and a kitchen table, and I'd be right. I rented a flat up until 1993 that still had a similar stove and it worked perfectly. So I'd be happy to have this in my house. The view out of the window is rather ordinary though.

Now for some fun...

I love love love the Shorpy blog! Great photos, interesting, intelligent and amusing comments, I could spend hours looking at everything. This one's from there...the challenge is to spot the guys in amongst the dolls!
