It's funny: when it's, say, 60° outside, it'll be 60° inside, but when it's 10° below outside, we fire up the stoves to 85 or so inside.
...and, since the oven is fired anyway, Mother goes ahead and makes cornbread, which, with sorghum molasses and homemade butter makes me feel sorry for folks who have to ride out winter storms in town.

I live in town here in Western Pa. We got hit with it all. Went to windchill last night of -45. So I heat with oil radiators and got the 3rd backup one out because the other two couldn't keep up with temp drop. I'm good now but once today the power flickered for a moment.
These oil filled radiators are the closest thing to wood stove heat as they radiate outward the heat and are much warmer than the fans and other types of space heaters. I love them!
You’re cornbread and molasses homemade butter sound wonderful. I imagine it's pretty cozy where you are.
