炉子
Stove
My mother would put me on a wooden box at the stove and tell me to call her if certain things would happen. Like if the steam turns blue, that is danger!
母亲会把我放在火炉边的一个木箱子上,告诉我如果发生了什么事,就给她打电话。如果蒸汽变成蓝色,那就是危险!
I can still memory - taste the fresh buttermilk pancakes and hot buttermilk biscuits - both made with lard! - that were cooked on the top, or in the oven, of that ancient iron stove.
我还记得——尝过新鲜的酪乳煎饼和热的酪乳饼干——都是用猪油做的!那是在古老的铁炉的顶部或炉子里煮的。
I was like any new bride, who said, 'I'm going to cook for my man.' In fact, once I started a small kitchen fire in a pan. Smoke was pouring from the pan, and I got really scared. Right next to our stove is a small fire extinguisher. You know, easy access.
我就像所有的新娘一样,说:“我要为我的丈夫做饭。”“事实上,有一次我在锅里生了一堆厨房里的小火。烟从锅里冒出来,我真的很害怕。就在我们火炉旁边有一个小灭火器。你知道,很容易接近。
