Blanche Loyall says no need for electric
"Some say I ought to have an electric stove" says Blanche Loyall, "But if you have a good wood stove that cooks like this one, there's no need".
"I've been cooking on this one for 54 years. It was my mother's. Some folks say the life of a wood stove is about 10 or 12 years, but this one is still good".
Miss Loyall or "Aunt Blanche" as she is best known, does all her cooking on the old "Pointer" that is in the kitchen of the house in the Sand Lick area of Green County. The house is on the farm where she was born 85 years ago. Her actual birthplace was destroyed by fire when she was a child.
Never married, she has occupied her years with farming (working in the fields), raising chickens and cooking meals (always on a wood cook stove) for whoever happened to be around at meal time.
Memories of sweet cakes, cornbread and beans, and biscuits from the warming closet of Aunt Blanche's stove abound in the minds of those people lucky enough to have visited her kitchen through the years.

A typical noon-time dinner is shown above: boiled old ham (back burner) apples and potatoes at the front, beans on the top of the warming closet and biscuits inside. Earlier in the day she baked a cake in the baking oven. Photo by Wilma Despain.
