Bought us spoons and knives and forks and we have a complete set of silver but we still didn't have much we didn't have a lot of things we needed but we had nice silver and nice china. Do you have special china too
MF Well some
CF When we got married we didn't have a dish, do you believe that
DM Neither did we, we just had some old stainless steel
CF But we got there
DM You're like we are we just accumulated things over a couple years now we're in pretty good shape
MF It takes awhile but you'll get there
DM Do you still do all your cooking on the coal stove
MF Uh huh on the coal stove, I make coffee like for breakfast on the gas when the stove is low but but I do all the rest on coal stove
CF Nuthin' like King Coal Stove, honest to God, we can make brea and everything and boot rags
DM Stove rags
MF Yeh stove rags, boot rags
DM I haven't heard them called boot rags, but they're the things with brown butter flour all mixed up with milk
MF No milk, just potatoes and a little flour and a little salt and add a little water to it and roll it out and bake it on top of the stove
DM On top, no pans or anything, right on top
MF Just on top of the lip
