Most of them have been stored in sheds, lean tos and barns and have their feet rotted pretty good.<br />Love the tin can biscuit cutter. Grandma and mom never made homemade biscuits after pop & fresh came along. My other grandma only did corn bread. Every single day, corn bread.<br />We always used a glass for our cookies. I don't think we ever owned cookie cutters at home. And all the things we used were old, but did the job, so why buy new?<br />Things just don't last like they used to, that's for sure.<br />Love your posts.<br />Hugs- TeteTetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697150195734655635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9061083430357183166.post-88531474499056448162011-01-20T00:25:02.237-06:002011-01-20T00:25:02.237-06:00Ms LV, that ice box's hinges reminded me of th...Ms LV, that ice box's hinges reminded me of the multiple locks in apartment buildings in New York, that I see in the movies.<br /><br />Thank you for your kind words about my blog.
