Scotland - Glasgow

Scotland – Glasgow arrived Tuesday July 28, 2009: 10 pm
Marietta is the finest and most gracious of hostesses! She made the 30-40 minute trek outside Glasgow to pick us up at Prestwick airport, and we got to help her break in new brand new Lexus - hope we didn't get muddy!

She had all sorts of breakfast food for us in the morning – juice, bagels, eggs, cream cheeses. Her flat is unbelievable, with 2 lofts, 2 full baths, ½ bath, washer dryer, and a view to kill for – including a terrace. The kitchen is open, with these cabinets made from some knotty wood; the doors being all scrolly in shape, with scribbly handles. She has this amazing stove, an AGA, that stays on all the time. It has these ovens that you don’t control the temperature – I love it! The top has two “burners” with lids. One side is for boiling, the other side is for sautéing. Tea towels dry on the handle in no time – I’d love to have this stove at home and just stand by it to warm myself up on those cold days.
