Cottage Kitchen Tour

[@courtneyannbougie1219]

You never seem rattled or hurried or frazzled. I think that’s one of the draws to your channel. I enjoy how calm and happy you are. I had an old Ziegler stove at my first home a dozen thousand years ago. We had an electric range, too, but would use that once in a great while. Also had a big wood stove in the lower part of the kitchen that was much loved. Sadly, our children live out of state and across the country. My husband and I don’t have a need for anything more than our coffee maker, Lodge and Le Creuset cookware. Oh, wait. Kitchenaid stand and hand held mixers. French press coffee pots. Man. I guess we do have a lot. !!!! 😳

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you dear, I’m so glad you are drawn to the channel ❤️ I love my coffee French press. Wood stoves are much loved here too. It’s hard to live away from family, I miss mine.

[@barbaradobson9298]

What a gift to find these daffodils planted by forgotten hands from long ago. It’s like a message from the past. I loved this land too and now you’re here to live & care for it too. Remnants of gardens of the past are magical and give us a continuum of hope.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Beautifully said, I feel the same way! It's special finding bulbs of these gorgeous flowers all in the woods and around the house. Continuum of hope :)

[@debbieyzuel7887]

Your home is adorable. It seems you put your heart in everything you do. After I married, my grandfather used to buy me platters at a local auction in California. I used them for a long time, but I was afraid of breaking them. But still love them.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

What a wonderful thing to do for you! I love pretty platters ❤️

[@alicedamsteegt8955]

Greetings from West Michigan! We have some kitchen things we still use today that we bought from a lady who was moving into a retirement village around 37 years ago. We were married in 1986 and bought the inside contents of the woman's home and the deal was that we take what we wanted and then dispose of the rest. I still use an orange soup ladle and all the cookie sheets as well as a roasting pan. As part of the deal we received a washer/dryer, refrigerator, bed frames, kitchen items and so many things that I cannot remember. We used all of it but in due time much of it was worn out or sold as we moved homes but we raised our children using much of the stuff. I have my favorites today too and they are my KitchenAid that is probably 25 years old, two instant pots and though the children are grown up and on their own I still love homemaking. Alice

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love it 😍 how thrifty! What a great way to start your marriage. I love homemaking too 🥰 My KitchenAid is a favorite here too!

For a shower gift I received a Revere ware saucepan that I have used since 1949 It is still after73 years a pan that I use almost every day. I clean the copper bottom with Twinkle and I shines !.Thanks for great videos.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love that!! ❤️❤️❤️ now that’s some long use.

[@maryjones7853]

@mary Simmons, I have a copper bottom Revere pot that originally belonged to my grandmother (who passed when I was younger). I grew up with my mom (who’s now 68) cooking with a whole set. I’m 31, and I love using it to cook special dishes that help me feel connected to them.

[@elainevega1092]

I came across your channel about 4 months ago. I want to just say a special thank you for I now find myself relearning to enjoy the moment, everything just makes me smile more. Thankyou again for sharing

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

You are so welcome, and I'm blessed to just hear that! :)

[@susanjohnson5988]

My Kitchenaid Mixer is 40 years old. I'm so grateful to an appliance repairman that was working on my dishwasher that when he saw it 20 years ago told me mine was made by Hobart and I should never let it go it would last forever. :)

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

It will last forever!! Thats wonderful :)

[@lisahall9226]

Kitchen Aid Mixer, Set of quality made kitchen knives and steel. I also have my grandmothers Mrs. Rabbit cookie jar and her rolling pin as my most priceless kitchen pieces. Now I am that 62year old grandma rolling out biscuit dough with what was my grandmothers rolling pin. Blessings.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

All great tools and what a special thing to have your grandmothers rolling pin!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Wow, thank you :)

[@ReneeRichterthisonesforyou99]

Love seeing the kitchen come together. Can't wait to see that wood stove going! Favorite kitchen things? My KitchenAid, which I bought 30 years ago refurbished. Still going strong, though I bought a bigger one to make multiple loaves of bread at one time. My cast iron pans are right up there with the KitchenAid. I have the 3 we used when I was growing up (I'm 67 now) and I've added lots of pieces since then. I'm addicted to whisks, rubber spatulas, wooden spoons and good tongs so have MANY of each. Pressure cookers, I have 4, the Instant Pot being used the most and my air fryer. Our kids are grown, with kids of their own but I still love being a homemaker too...and of course a grandmother.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I cant wait to show you the stove burning happily this fall :) All amazing tools for the kitchen! Homemaking and being a grandmother is a wonderful thing :)

[@natashaw2373]

Lovely video my friend. I adore the cozy charm of your kitchen. You can see the happy memories and love you and the family share in there.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you so much dear 🥰

[@maryohare4141]

Very pretty and well-thought-out cook's kitchen! I also insist on lots of views and sunlight for my kitchen! Love that you are putting in those two windows! You could do one big garden bay window, put herbs and flowery plants in it, a glass shelf across top for collected colorful blue, green, red glass bottles...it would be a very beautiful, sunlit space! At Christmas, you could do a mini village, sparkly tiny lights on that glass shelf. Another idea, would be to do a skylight in your kitchen, over the island. Imagine stirring cookie dough for Christmas, looking up... and seeing snowflakes whirling overhead...you would feel like you lived inside a snowglobe! Your little ones would LOVE that! You could even outline the skylight with pine trim and tiny lights!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Oh, I love all your ideas! I once had house years ago with a skylight over the island and when it snowed it was magical :)

[@jennifermanian1420]

My favorite kitchen item is a rolling pin that both my mother and grandmother used. I also love my kitchenmixer.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Lovely :) heirlooms are the best!

[@jenkopin572]

Hi Abby. Your kitchen is going to be stunning! I’m happy you didn’t wait until it was complete to give us a tour. Like you, I too love my Kitchenaid mixer and Vitamix. I also have an inexpensive rice cooker that I love and use all the time. I would really like if you did an episode on all Instant Pot recipes.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you dear! I’m so glad you enjoyed the not finished yet kitchen tour 🥰 I will have to do an instapot video sometime .

[@margrietneels6031]

I love your new wood cookstove! I used an old one like the one you showed, back about 25 years ago that looked exactly like that one except it was half wood and half electric! And yes, the wood stove part was so tiny that it sure didn't hold much wood! I use my cast iron skillets and dutch oven everyday and have for years! I also have a Bosch mixer for doughs, etc., that I've used for many years. I couldn't do without my Tupperware peelers, my Blendtec, wooden cutting boards, red tea kettle, and pretty tea cups!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you! 🥰 I love my new wood cook stove. You have great kitchen tools 🙌

[@poodlegirl55]

I have an old pan that we call the rice pan. It is heavy and the lid has a steam vent and it makes perfect fluffy rice. I have been using it for 49 years but it was my husband's grandmother's pan before that. My daughter is wealthy and has a fabulous kitchen and home and one day when she was here she said "I'm going to inherit that rice pan." She was totally serious.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That's defiantly an heirloom that you can pass on :)

[@fourdayhomestead2839]

At the beginning of video, flower cuttings & beautiful arrangement brighten a home.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

[@pameehanson3866]

I have cast iron skillet, dutch oven and small skillet, can't live without them. My prized skillet is an All Clad a co worker gifted to me, they are very expensive but I love the weight (stainless steel) and very easy to clean. Thanks for sharing your kitchen and favorites with us today.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it ❤️ love stainless too!

[@michellejaggard9657]

I used a fridge like that when I first got married. I paid $25 for it. I did have to get a new gasket for it. The bad thing about it was almost no freezer space. It was older than that one it just had a little square box in the center. 2 ice trays that came with it (the metal kind that had the metal handle that pulled to release the cubes) and maybe room for a little bit of hamburger like a 1pound tray,It was a Fridigaire. Handle looked the same. I see your green pirex bowls. I got them new for a wedding gift. I am 69 if you were wondering, I live in the Texas Panhandle. Oh you have such a large kitchen! I just love it and you large large living room. You have decorated it so lovely. I can't wait to see the kitchen once it is finished! And the wood stove will be wonderful. I can't have one, I do have a fire place but rarely use it. The area of the country I live in is very dry, arid and windy. The only trees here have been planted by the houses. There are no forest or woods. Just very flat plains where ranching and wheat, and maze is grown. A cord of wood is $400 because it has to be trucked in at least 300 miles and with the price of fuel brings the price up. I do canning, I live in town and have 8 chicken. A back yard garden and part of my front yard in vegetables also. Next summer I plan to put in some berries. I have tried before but no luck but I don't want to give up. I would like an apple tree and a peach tree also if I can find space. I have a corner lot so I may be able to fit it in and maybe some grapes. I had a green house but it blew down. We get 60 mile an hour winds steady and up to 90 mile gusts. My yard is fenced with solid 6' pickets, lower ones in front because of my little White Schnauzer. My husband is 76, he is a Vietnam Vetrain. Prayers and Blessings to you and your lovely family. I enjoy watching you so much.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me about yourself and where you are from, I hope your garden and berries prosper this next season. I love that you are gardening and canning right in town! Keep up the good work, many blessings - Abby Jo

[@deeberryhill5656]

Good evening Abby Jo! Such a beautiful blog. Thank you! My oldest piece of cookware I use is a cast iron frying pan my Mother-in-Love gave me and taught me how to "Southern cook and cure". She also said it would be useful for keeping her son inline. I fell in love with HER during that conversation and am blessed to say she was the most precious Mother-in-Love EVER! We lost her 10 years ago and I am proud to say that even after 37 years of marriage I never have used it to straight out her son as she did a perfect job in raising the most amazing man! God bless! Your new Canadian friend!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love this sweet story of your mother-in-Love got me teary eyed :) God bless you, dear!

I have a tool that I have had for 50+ years. It was a gift from my ex-husband’s. dear Aunt. It was ordered from Yankee Magazine. They said you would use it for everything. It is a small spatula, with a rounded , somewhat wider end. One side is slightly serrated on the end. It is missing a brad. The finish is completely off the handle. I❤it.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

How lovely, what a treasure!

[@janezempel248]

I have a cast iron frying pan from my grandparents' farm from the 1920s. I've used it almost daily for the 44 years of my married life and they must have loved it too because it was one of the things they rescued from the farmhouse when they had a fire in the late 1920s.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That is a special frying pan!! You should write that story down so your family will always know where that pan came from :)

Good evening from my home to yours. I loved your video. So calming and relaxing. Such a beautiful tour of your wonderful kitchen and sitting area, with stories about items, and how your family uses the areas. I have some cutlery from my grandmother, glass tumblers and some saucepans that are over 20 years old. They are some of my favourite and most well used pieces. I have a small tiled board, to rest hot dishes on, that I made at a church school holiday program in 1982. I nailed together the board, did the tiling and grouting, and wrote my name and the date on the back. First and only time that I have done that. I use it every time I bake. Thank you for your gentle and hygge videos.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it! I think it's wonderful you have things yoiu still use from your grandmother :) And very cool you made something that use in your kitchen everyday!

New subscriber here and I love your channel and content. To answer your question about what I love the most in my kitchen. Well there’s a lot but for sure, my Tupperware storage containers. I store all my ingredients in airtight containers. It took me several years to gather them all and I am always on the look-out for more but I’m pretty content with what I have so far. I’m also always thrifting for Pyrex dishes.

My mother also had a set, she passed away in 2005 and my daughter is still cooking using Mother's set. Guess mine will go to a granddaughter! My heavy duty wooden spoons. I tossed all the thin ones and bought a few really heavy duty ones, not in a set but each one seperate that I knew I always cooked with. LOVE wooden spoons and last I guess would be my spray olive oil bottle and salt and pepper grinder,

[@countrymousesfarmhouse497]

How perfect to pick tulips and daffodils in your yard. I ove that. That wood cook stove is just right, a beautiful blend of all the quality aesthetic we love but the practicality of glass doors and large oven . Just amazing. I'm a big fan of glass doors too , flames are mesmerising and so relaxing . I have an antique Crown #1 wood cook stove that we have carted from house to house. Its one of my favourite things ,we are yet to put it in. It is pretty small, small firebox and oven, and definitely doesn't have glass but the flavour of food cooked in it makes it completely worth that. Ive thought so many times about getting maybe an Aga or something but realistically, its just not going to get much use here in our warm climate. I have some of my mums Corning ware and ive collected more as we broke some . I just love that they've been in continuous use for so many decades and the pretty patterns on the sides too. Last year I collected more small ones for when we take meals to loved ones. They are gorgeous and the food seems more special than in a plastic container which was how I used to do it. I have my mums rolling pin and my grandmothers ice cream scoop from her little shop. I only have to see them in the drawer and I have memories come back. Very special. My favourite thing about your kitchen is definitely that island. I'm looking for a great little cupboard like your previous home, to put a butcher block top and wheels on it. So pretty and functional. Thank you for the tour my darlings 🥰🥰🥰 Have a beautiful Spring 🌷⚘🥀🌹

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love Corning ware too. Aga’s are amazing, but you do live in a very warm climate! I can’t wait to show off the wood cook stove this fall, you will find me in front of that stove in a rocking chair ❤️ love kitchen items from family, memories are special! Sending our love.

My Le Creuset bought in 1968 and still using them today. They will be 54 years old this year. At the time only the color flame (orange) was available at the Dayton’s Department store in Minneapolis. Cast iron fry pans. My Chinese cast iron woks from the Wok Shop in San Francisco.

This was a really fun video 💕 I can’t wait to see the wood stove 💕. The flowers are absolutely beautiful.

I was just given embroidered kitchen towels by her (eeek, so happy) Most of my home has my Mother’s things, A Great Grandmothers, my Grabdmothers , and My Mothers in laws things. People are always surprised that about 75% was given to by someone and it has come together over the years to make a lovely “picture”.

Hello! I have my set of Paul Revere Copper bottom pans that I use every day. I’ve had them since 1974 and love them.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That’s wonderful 🙌 what good cookware!

[@debbiesittard7979]

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

What a lovely idea ❤️

[@Musique68]

What a beautiful home and life you've created for your family 💕

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you, I'm thankful for this home and the life we have together :)

[@gather.sip.flourish]

Such a lovely video!! Thank you so much and I just ordered an apron...can't wait until it comes! PS...I ordered the red one too:)

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it. The aprons are a little smaller I noticed in size so I ordered up on the size. But that could just be me.

[@patticurran308]

Great video! Your home is lovely and I am looking forward to seeing your new windows and backsplash. Love your dress!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@GiselaSuski]

Thank you again for the video - I learn so much. My Osterizer blender is over 50 years old.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it 🥰 They sure made appliances good 👍

[@narellefialkowski2270]

I really enjoyed the tour, I can't wait to see the kitchen indeed the whole house finished. I would have loved a wood cook stove, in Australia they are so expensive I will look forward to see you using your's. I have plates and dishes from my original dinner set from 1976 that I still use today, as well as casserole dishes that I still use.Thanks Abby Jo.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you, I cant wait to show more as we get done too! I love that youy are still using your original set of dishes! That's great :)

[@lynludwig1323]

Fabulous video as always Abby Jo 🤩😍👍...Your warm inviting kitchen,living space is going to be so nice with the wood stove glowing on a cold day and that extra light with new windows 😁..Can never have to much light . For many years I had only ever had a hand mixture to use for baking..It did all I ever needed ..But had a food processor and a crockpot and a bread maker ...I did not get my Kitchenaid mixer until I moved to USA ....I did not bring any of my old kitchen appliances with me as our electrical plugs etc are different in New Zealand ..

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you, Lyn 🥰 I’m so excited to get it all done by the holidays ❤️ Oh, I never thought about the different plugs 🔌 over there!

[@cheryldennard-mayo6890]

Thank you, I so enjoyed this video. Some of the items I couldn’t do without and love is my KitchenAid Pro we use the juicer and meat grinder the most it was a Christmas gift from my husband 15 plus years ago. Second is my Instapot it’s an 8 quart, to be honest it intimidated me for almost the first year I had it. I do basic things stews soups eggs in it but love the time it saves me in preparing meals for my family. The last treasures of my kitchen are the platters that belonged to my mother and my grandmother and one from my great grandmother I used to save them and only use them for holidays and special occasions but I enjoy them now and try to use them in my daily servings.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love that you are using your platters now on a daily basis 🙌❤️ things should be used! Isn’t KitchenAid attachments amazing? 😍

[@diennaschiro9524]

Hi AddyJo,will thanks again for this video always enjoy watching you and hearing you speak and that you can just go away I had to do work and pick beautiful flowers it’s like that where I live I have one window of amazing and I can look out at the birds theater and watching them eat and I can go out and pick up the flowers that are growing in the yard and they last a long time to win the house I live up north so right now is the time of season for tulips and daffodils in the area all the Beautiful wildflowers see you next time.

Beautiful flower arrangement. Love your kitchen.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you!

[@drbbass]

Abby, thank you for the tour of your lovely kitchen. I have a favorite cast Iron pan from my parents’ home. When I was younger, I didn’t use it very much but as time went by, I started cooking with it more and more. It’s now one of my “go to” pans to use. I also have a Dutch oven that my mother used frequently and I think of her whenever I use it. Diane/Massachusetts

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it :) Love a good cast Iron pan!

[@pamelabernhardt7877]

I know this is late coming but I use my kitchenaid, instant pot, lodge cookware, vitamix almost daily, kettle and coffee press for tea, and i also have a grain mill. Makes the best pastry!! I live in a 1900 house I want to restore back to its original pieces. Just wish it was in the woods! ❤️❤️ I live in Sault Ste. Marie, you’re so close to me!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I love it! All great kitchen tools. And hello to you neighbor :)

[@brandym7270]

Your wood cook stove looks amazing. I can't wait to see your kitchen when you guys finish it, including when the wood cook stove is installed. I know that it's gonna look great.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you 😊 I can’t wait to show you when it’s done ❤️

I would love to have a wood kitchen stove. With the times it would come in very handy!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I have always wanted one and they are a really good back up :)

[@farminginmyapron1718]

Well that was a fun Sunday afternoon visit! My most used kitchen tools are both of my mixers (Kitchenaid and a Bosch), my immersion blender (I just got it last month and don't know how I managed with out one for so long!), and an egg whisk I picked up at the thrift store that for lack of better words looks kind of like a spring with a handle. It beats eggs so quickly and thoroughly I'll probably never use anything else. Thanks for letting us "nose around" your kitchen and sitting room : )

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Awww 🥰 thank you friend! Those are both great mixers. I’ve always wanted to try an immersion blender, hmmm 🤔 now you got me thinking.

[@debbiecrouch709]

Love all the wood n huge windows so much life through to view. Beautiful flowers 💐 I have a French press still in the box but I wanna start using, if you have time would you show all the steps to make the coffee in the press, also the chocolate in the dish and the completed mocha process! As always I enjoy your videos.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I would love to :) I will have to do a video on coffee and tea drinks soon. Love my french press :)

[@rebeccabodmer5498]

Love your home; have always dreamed of having a wood cookstove but probably not going to happen as my husband and I are in retirement. So will look forward to seeing you use yours in the fall! God bless from Montana

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you 🥰 I hope you can live vicariously through my wood cook stove 😊

[@kathleensutton-brown8521]

I love watching your videos.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Glad you like them!

[@mistyhuber4831]

Hi, AbbyJo! In answer to your question about long term kitchen tools, my work horses are my cast iron skillet, a set of stainless temp tone pots and pans, stainless utensils, a set of clear Pyrex mixing bowls, all of which we’ve had since we were married 22 years ago. And also a plastic mixing spoon that’s from the early eighties. These tools are used daily and have lasted 22+ years.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That's wonderful to have tools that last the test of time :)

[@ccfarm]

Greetings from MO! I love what you've done with ur home.

[@bkj2508]

Your kitchen looks gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing with us. I am new. About 3 weeks ago I found you. So I have been going through your older videos. I just am watching the one about nightgowns ,the Great depression. Love it. My grandfather did the same as your great grandfather did. He got his money out too. Yes, I love nite gowns too! My gran used to wear night caps too. Just wanted to ask, did your grandma (great) use caps on left overs?they reminded me of shower caps we used to wear when we didn't want to get our hair wet. My mom and grandma Used to wash plastic ware. She even put an aspirin in her flower water..my grandpa used to teach me German . Anyway ,I could go on an on. So yes, I enjoy you talking about yours. Thank you!!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you! How interesting, I wonder how many people got their money out befor the great depression? I love that she wore night caps :) That just makes me smile. I' dont remember about caps on the food? I love that you also have beautiful stories from your Grandparents :)

[@zaninemcloughlin4812]

Hi there. Just came across your channel a couple of days ago. Loving it. Already hooked. I have a Moulinex hand mixer that i still use that was a wedding present to my mother 54 years ago. Unfortunately they do not make them like that anymore 😔.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Welcome aboard! Those are nice hand mixers, I agree they done make a lot of things like they used to.

[@loiswalker3599]

I will soon be married 55 years! And I still use the stainless steel cookware we got when we were married! Still very good condition!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That’s wonderful 🙌❤️ both being married 55 years and your cookware still going strong 💪
