The Stove

Wow, we've come a long way.
Can you imagine using one of these old things? For those of you who don't know, it was fueled by wood or coal. That's right. The cook had to keep filling it's belly with wood or coal to keep things cooking. That was before the days of electric appliances such as mixers, blenders, and food processors. Lots of work.



Then along came this gas stove. It must have felt like heaven. By this time we had additional electrical appliances and life was good. (At one time I thought I could never use electric unless I was forced. Then I was forced into it and it wasn't too terribly bad.)





When electric arrived we thought life couldn't get better, until flat surface came about. I don't know about you all but I couldn't live without it.
I would love to have a flat surface cook top with built-in double ovens, but I don't have that in this house. I am trying to convince my husband I don't need the pantry, but that is an entirely different story.



I have a question for you all. If you had a choice what would your choice be?
Please tell me your choices and why? Include color and style if you like. I have seen so many neat colors and styles in the last few years and I change my mind with every different model and color. I look forward to your responses.
