Well at least we've never had to buy a toaster :-D :-D :-D

OH does not sit in a rocking chair knitting socks as I removed the rocking mechanism many years ago.

She does however have a couple of automatic sewing machines which are put to constant use for her hobby of crafting.!

Now you may ask, witch craft? :-D :-D :-D

Kathryn, OH forges her own knives :-|

She just breathes on them to get them glowing red hot before beating them on the anvil; to sharpen them she just runs her tongue over the edges...very Tolkeinesk :-D :-D :-D

I call her Smaug ;-)

My dad used to make machine knives, it was his job to sharpen them.
I wonder if OH may find this interesting? :-D
