I love my turquoise Kikkerland timer. Occasionally, I have to tap it to get it to tick. I got mine at Anthropologie. I noticed them on the Velocity Art and Design website recently. What I'm really interested in is the dress form.....

Jackie, this recipe is restaurant quality. Enjoyed by all.

Sigh....inherit one 1960 Rembrandt floor lamp from parents who were done with it...belonged to my grandmother....contained original lamp workings and not up to current standards...access fabulous lamp shop in town, have the whole thing reworked...salvage the SILK lampshade, fussing over it in the bathtub.... and voila!! en"light"ened object of family history. Worth every penny (many of them, I might add).

This recipe identical (except the addition of caraway)to my Grandmother's. I've eaten it for the last 50 years. Unfortunately, my attempts yesterday produced batter all over my oven, much to my dismay. Two loaves are now 1 1/4. Should have asked my mother to make them for me. Not enough flour or too much buttermilk and a telephone conversation does not make for a good loaf of bread. In the Celtic community, this bread is known as a railway cake. I think I'll bake it in another vessel next year. Thanks for sharing your photos.

I'm guessing '40's. "I spy" art deco pottery on the top of the cabinets that might be Abingdon Pottery, manufactured in Abingdon, Illinois, 1933-1950's. I wish the picture was clearer, too.
