A little maple sugar and some bacon in the batter today.

That one came from my grandmother. When I got it, it was still new in the box with the old-school UPS postal meter style shipping tag. She must have ordered it for some reason in the 1980s and never used it.

Unless the heating coil opens, this should continue working forever.

I bet she ordered it out of the old Sears catalogs. I think that's where my parents got theirs in the early 80's.. hell it might have been in the 70's.

We had a Sears Catalog Store in town, so that (or the J.C. Penny Catalog) wouldn't surprise me.

There's a chance it could have been a gift from my grandfather's employer, because gramma wasn't the kind of person that just bought something she never used. She had the depression-era mindset.
