We're saving up to re-do the kitchen in our Townhouse (it can't happen SOON enough for me). Townhouse was built in '77 and still has original stove: Harvest Gold. :rolleyes: | ||

Joined: September 2003 Posts: 782 Location: Waurika OK | Our band was known as Leon and the Cow Chips. Our fridge is still harvest gold. My folks is coppertone and my mother got upset at me for cleaning out the coils so it would keep going, she is ready for a new one, but being people who lived through the depression, you have to wait until the one you have gives up the ghost before replacing it. | ||
