.....and it's steaming hot - this kettle lives on top of my stove and is my go to kettle whenever I want a nice cup of tea. I love the design and the red spinner whistles on the boil - This is my entry for the current contest, Something In the Home.

Everyone should have a go to kettle Laura. I can almost hear it whistling. I'm not a big fan of tea so all I need is a go to coffee maker. 😁
Good one for the contest and best of luck to you.

It looks amazing, as does the reflection of your kitchen in the kettle. Tick mentions the coffee maker, and I do use a coffee maker daily, but my parents always "percolated" their coffee and it tasted way different than the coffee maker coffee we have today. Enjoy your wonderful tea and best wishes for success in the current contest.

Laura, I've never seen a such sophisticated kettle before. If the whistle produce a sound like the whistle of an old steam locomotive, it's an nostalgic one as well, 😁 !
Inventive and good idea to make this photograph as an entry for the current (Something In The Home) contest.
I wish you the Best of Luck with it.

Beautiful kettle Laura and I am a tea drinker - have a cup every morning and mid-afternoon - but my utilitarian stainless steel kettle pales in comparison to this lovely.

Great image and a contender of the contest. I do have to admit, I can't read the title of this entry without completing the words "and we're so easily called away" from "Admiral Halsey" by Wings.

"We're so sorry, Uncle Albert
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry, Uncle Albert
But the kettle's on the boil and we're so easily called away"
