An old kettle tale...

A kettle for Hazel to see...

In one of the photos that Hazel (My Little Chickadee) posted on flickr of her trip to Kings Landing pioneer village in New Brunswick, there was a large kettle in the kitchen of one of the houses. It reminded me of this one. When my friend, Jan, and I backpacked around Europe for nine weeks many moons ago, before marriage and children, I spied this in a tiny dark and dusty antique shop in Germany and had to get it for my dad. It swung from my canvas pack through several countries! Dad loved it and when he passed away, the kettle came to roost at my place, some 30 years down the road
