My 1955 "foodmaster"

 

All I want to do is shred cheese.

I won this great 1955 "foodmaster" on ebay. It is just like my Mother's. I had to have one after using Mom's to make my homemade pimiento cheese spread.

 

It's so simple~

Select proper cutting cone, feed cheese in the hopper and turn crank....

 

within seconds I had a nice pile of shredded cheese....

The BEST SHREDDER, STRINGER, THIN SLICER, WAFFLER & THICK SLICER ever!

If you find one in your thrift shopping~ Goodwill, garage sales, estates sales, or find one on ebay, grab it~ You will absolutely love it!

My dream farmhouse...

 

I found my dream farmhouse....

it has everything, that I would want.

A great welcoming gate, can't you just see a fresh green Christmas wreath on it?

 

There's a hitching post. I'd get a horse, I promise.

Can you believe this long white picket fence?

I'd enjoy keeping it freshly painted, it would be a loving chore...

See the birdhouse? Right behind that group of trees.

I bet the little birdies love living here...

WHAT A VIEW!

I think it's beautiful.

 

This great farmhouse is on CR 1798 in Rusk County, Texas...

It's unoccupied, but well loved, you can tell. I bet it's someone's "weekend" home.

I'd love to know who owns it, I would ask them~

 Can I buy your beautiful farmhouse? ; - )

Little Piggy...

  

My little piggy is black and shiny...; - )

 

I was really tired of the pinkish flesh color my little piggy was, so I ask MILTON to spray paint him black. MILTON said,

He rolled-his-eyes and sprayed the piggy...

I LOVE HIM~ THE PIG.

If you LOVE him Mika, he can come and live with you!
