Anyway, my parents had one of <a href="http://enattendantlafin.tumblr.com/image/98325331238" rel="nofollow">those ugly thing</a> to hold the Scott towel rolls.

We were sometimes called when people were breaking up a household and we were able to take over complete kitchen environments from the fifties, sixties, seventies, and of course pieces from pre-war times. It was never a special area of interest ; I like it, but never was able to determine by one short glimpse when where what like my than colleague - she could see in the fraction of a second what was in a large kitchen, while I stared at shiny objects ... Also the terminus "Saran Wrap" is / was unknown to me. From what I read it is not really recommendable to wait behind the front door wrapped into his stuff "'til hubsy" staggers homey, "dolly wifey" had a good chance to suffocate, that silly tart.<br /><br />The last time I saw the bread box was this morning, there is a large <i>Irdenware</i> thing in the kitchen, white, round ; and because someone broke the original lid that plastic thing one uses in the micro to cover stuff has to double as lid for the bread box, <i>Brottopf</i>.<br /><br />The paper towel roll stands somewhere on the counter ; the alu stuff is never used, I think the roll is still from the 1980s, lies in the drawer of the kitchen table. There also must be some ancient clear wrap, don't know whether adhesive or not. Guess its bought by my mother, who died more than twenty years ago. I never need that stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24611442.post-2254927639411818802014-09-24T08:14:06.265-04:002014-09-24T08:14:06.265-04:00MISS SCARLET: Did someone mention CAKE?
