Famous or Infamous?

I received the most exciting phone call this morning! My friend, Jeanine, was on the other end of the line saying, "Your kitchen is in Romantic Homes Magazine!" Since I had no idea what she was talking about, I said very eloquently, "Huh?" We sell the magazine at the store and I had just gotten a new bundle yesterday, but hadn't even opened the package because I was going to take them right over to the store. Of course, while I was on the phone, I started tearing into the pack all tied with string and padded with bubble wrap. It was, I'm sure, a very lady-like way to open a package! Sure enough, my pink stove is on page 7.

I had sent an email to the editor last Winter just letting them know how much I had enjoyed a particular issue while I had a houseful of sick kids. I threw in a picture of the pink stove at the last second just because I thought they might all get a good laugh from the fact that I have an old enamel pink stove that I got from the garbage. And what'd ya know... they published it. I'm sure glad that I didn't tell them that I had to put a mouse trap in it one time!

21 Blessings...:

LOVE the stove! Lets see the rest of the kitchen! :>) (Now I have to go get a copy and really check it out. but your picture is beautiful)

Dawnie said...

I would get an extra issue so that you can cut that little section out and mat and frame it then hang it right above the stove, (or set it in a little easel or something) how cute would that be... just don't let Ms. Pink get a big head about being the most famous stove on the block or she might stop wanting to COOK and stuff, and well... it all goes down hill from there... She'll start wanting her own jewelry and fashions, and start making you clean her hourly in case the Paparazzi show up, etc... hehe!

Congratulations, thats just awesome!

You have a pink stove? You lucky girl. I've always wanted a pink stove. And I want one of those 40s style fridges in pink too! :) Congrats on the magazine publication. Now you're going to have an army of women from coast to coast coveting your stove! Better chain it to the wall. :)

Thank you for your nice comments about my daughter's wedding over at cityfarmer. I've always envied all the stranger-friends that dish out such complimentary comments. It's like a sisterhood and starting today I'm aiming to join the ranks. It truly is a small small world, after-all. Julee

Just found your blog, and then to see that wonderful pink stove that I saw in RH! Well, it's just too much!
:)
It's fabulous; I loved seeing the other pictures of your pretty kitchen too!

Polly,
When I saw the photo on your website...I instantly thought of the issue with the "pink stove"...I remember showing it to Josh and saying "look...I want that!" And I have often wondered if it was the same one...and look at that...I was right! ;)

Sweet Cottage Dreams said...

I saw it, too! How cool was that to be in RH? I love that magazine and love your stove!!!
