Here goes for a Maginot fort kitchen from more than 70 years ago…. don’t think I’ll have dinner cooked there, thanks

I bet they could have knocked you up a tasty soup, Sue! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Haha!
So interesting–thanks for the photo. Being in such severe cold recently makes me understand better what folks had to do for survival in difficult times–this is one version of it.
Oh no, this is a wartime relic. Which in actual fact never saw actionp
Not even as a practice bunker or anything?
That I don’t know
You’ve caught this really well Sue. Like you, I’m not sure I fancy it for dinner, but I have to say it’s a fair bet tidier than mine is at the moment!!
Oh, goodness!
Hard to imagine how much labour was involved to pre[are a meal in the olden days!
It’s not so long ago!
Thanks for this extraordinary insight, Sue. Well captured but it does indeed look bleak. Makes me think of cold mushy peas for some reason.
Glad you like this Tish….and I know what you mean about mushy peas….I wonder what the French equivalent would have been!
It involve tripe!
Maybe….if so, urgh!
Pretty state of the art stuff for the time I guess. Shame the Germans had such good tanks and tactics 🙂
Well, the Maginot line was badly thought out….the Germans just sidestepped it….so they were never in the line of fire.
🙂
M😀
There’s a family heirloom or two there, Sue. Or p’raps not! 🙂 🙂 Very atmospheric shot.
Who knows…glad you think it’s atmospheric….
Lovely light – and I’d be more than happy to eat a meal cooked up here., unless of course that would mean eating the dust of th ages. Not unlike a few kitchens I know here in the bush.
Oh, definitely the dust, and grime of the ages, Meg!
I think I wouldn’t mind some stew… i think it’s great for cooking leg of lamb.
If the cooker is still working!
Wow…
OH, thanks!
Such a gorgeous capture, Sue! Lovely tones and ambiance. 🙂 I would opt not to have my dinner cooked there, but it is a very photogenic sight.
Glad you like this, Paula! I agree, I wouldn’t have dinner here!
Never enter the kitchen of your favorite eatery…
I think there’s some truth in that, Robert!
Fabulous lighting 🙂
It was what was there
