Buried treasure

I have now owned the Clocktower Cottage for 16 months. I have spent much of my time here organizing things and making it my own. I thought I had visited each nook, cupboard and drawer, but apparently that's not true. 

Tonight, while sweeping the kitchen floor, I looked down at just the right angle to see a drawer beneath the oven I'd never noticed before.  It surprised me at first--thinking that I may have overlooked something. I really believed there were no new surprises. Not there especially as I spent a great deal of time on that floor when I was painting the cabinets. How could I have missed it?



So, what's in the drawer?


Two English cake pans with a clever built-in mechanism for getting the cake unstuck from the bottom. You swing the blade around until the whole item is loosened from the pan. Brilliant idea!


Don't know what this is, but it's cute.


Two vintage enamel baking pans: one big enough for a lasagne and the other perfect for a dainty pie for two. These are in beautiful condition--pure white with a lovely cobalt blue edge. These are my favorites!
