I Love it!

My Stove all dressed up for a special occasion.....

My friend Vicki stopped by the other day and I was so embarrassed to show my stove. It gets so dirty since Dean and I are constantly cooking. This stove is the best stove EVER! So, Vicki suggested to just use baking soda. THANK YOU my friend it looks fantastic.

I Huge Thank you to Kay Ellen for taking these photos to be sent to the magazine in Italy. My camera decided to not work and I knew how talented Kay is. Kay I know how busy you are these days, and I really appreciated your help.
Ciao for now
Rita

    I love the red Rita. It looks great with your awesome stove. I keep the other ones (in the yard) in my thoughts and plans for our next move. ;) I better start saving my pennies, er, nickels.

    Hi Rita, I love your stove. I don't recognize it and I would like to know the brand that it is. I found you through Romantic Homes and I am so glad that I did! Thanks, Denise
