Figure 25: Fireplace, pot,
iron, and broom Ms. Catherine always had a stove that she used for cooking, but Archie Waiters recalled that, when he was a child, his grandmother Maum Florence used a pot like this to "cook in the fireplace--peas, collards, chicken, anything." Ms. Catherine made this house broom in the old-time way, using a narrow strip of soft cloth, tightly wrapped around the upper portion of the broomstraw. (Photo 1994) |
