A Historical House That Feeds


~HISTORIC KIRBY HOUSE~
Fine Dining in a Victorian Mansion

A relaxing meal on a Friday evening.
This Summer we ate at the Abilene, Kansas KIRBY HOUSE.
This was part of my 57th Birthday Celebration Get Away with Hubby.
Took a walk around the outside of this fine structure and will share.
Fine Dining in a Victorian Mansion was a nice place
to spend some alone time with my best friend and Hubby.
I'd do it AGAIN.

SORRY.....NO pics of the food.
But the food was deliciously GOURMET.

So enjoy the PINK mansion!

A pleasant house to dine in.

Kirby House is on my bucket list! I would like to go to Abilene in the winter, to attend their Christmas home tour. That's on my bucket list too! Thanks for sharing, you confirmed my desire to visit there!

So many beautifully restored Victorian houses to see in Abilene. Enjoy driving the streets and taking pictures. The Kirby House Restaurant was a great place to have a quiet get-away dinner with my sweetheart. Food was great, the house and decor is very pleasant. If you are going to bucket list Abilene you will also want to eat the famous fried chicken at the Brookville Hotel, and if you find time, take in lunch at Mrs. K's Farmhouse. Mrs. K once gave President Eisenhower a paddling on his birthday, signed proof hangs in the entry. I think I have talked myself into being ready to go back.

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
