    Have a great weekend - oh, and happy blogaversary! (and if that word didn’t exist, well it does now!! :D)

  22. I love it! We had kerosene lamps in our house when I was a child. This is my first Photo Hunt, and I’m not sure what I’m doing or where to go post your picture - help! Oh, I’ll figure it out somehow. I just copied your post for the most part! :-) Except I don’t know how to do the Mr. Linky thing…

  23. Clearly old-fashioned! Having lived with one, I can say that the light’s no-where near as good as electric, though.
