A Cottage

by Kathryn Goldman


My kitchen has wooden floors and the walls are painted olive green. I have 2 ovens and 1 stove which has 6 burners. My kitchen is small with long countertops that are made of green marble with tan spots which matches the colors of my floor and walls. My refrigerator is big so it can store lots of food. My kitchen has an electronic screen built into one of the walls. You use your fingers to click on recipes you want. It will tell you all the information you need to know of how to make whatever it is you want to cook. I have a small garden in my kitchen which produces vegetables and herbs. In the kitchen there is a table which is made out of wood. My chairs are also made out of wood with a nice dark green cushion with flowers on it and can seat up to 6 people. I have a spice rack with many different spices. My cabinets are made out of a light wood. I have pictures on my walls of wine bottles, fruits, and sceneries.


Melanie Christen

My name is Melanie Christen. I love small homes and farms. I am a very happy person in my little cottage. My favorite seasons are winter and autumn. I am very kind and gentle to others. I help out my neighbors whenever I have the chance.

I have peach skin with beautiful blond hair with streaks of brown. I like to set my hair in a long braid. I have blue eyes with tons of freckles around my nose. My cheeks are rosy red and I have small pearl earrings. I always wear dresses and skirts. I am 5½ feet tall. I have white shoes with flowers on them, but I prefer to wear my white stockings with my brown Dutch shoes.

I like to hang around with farm animals and I love my dog, Iowa, named after the state I live in. I like the colors red, blue, green, purple, orange, yellow, and teal...practically every color of the rainbow!

I have a passion for cooking and baking. My favorite food is country fried chicken with hot sauce and BBQ pulled pork sandwiches. I like Jim Dandy ice cream sundaes, and have one every other week.

I have four brothers and one sister. I have a husband named Joseph and three girls and two boys. I am 39 years old. My favorite thing to do in my spare time is cross-stitch, knitting, sewing, or reading.

My house is in Iowa. The town I live in is small and simple. It is pleasant and sunny each day with a slight breeze. It is a crowded little town filled with quiet people. There are many houses in my neighborhood. There are several neighborhoods in the town that are built around a shopping center. All of the neighborhoods have about 25 homes in each and they are all small cottages like mine.

My house is easy to find because I have many different colored flowers in front. I feel very safe in my town. My neighborhood is filled with kind people always helping each other.


It is a small cottage with three floors. There are three rooms and one storage room upstairs. The walls are made of wooden planks. The house has 2 bathrooms and a different patterned carpet in each room. It has a lamp in each room, too. Each room has a different looking curtain. There's a wooden cross and a closet in each room.

The kitchen is small, with a stove, oven, cabinets, sink, refrigerator, and a small wooden table with wooden chairs. The kitchen floors are wooden. The living room has a sofa, a bookcase, a wooden piano, and a small coffee table. The dining room has a small table and wooden chairs with a heart carved in the middle of the chair backs, and a small china closet. The table has a beautiful table cloth with lace trim.

There's a small T.V. in the basement. The basement has a nice dark green carpet with wooden walls and a computer desk. It also has a sofa, a big bookcase, and a rocking chair. There's a small laundry room with a bathroom attached to it leading out back. In the laundry room there's a refrigerator/freezer to store food. It has an ice compartment and a water dispenser.

My cottage has a small fireplace with real wood, and an air conditioner for summer. I have a different scented candle in each room, such as cinnamon, vanilla, or mint.
