In the 1920s and 30s, Hoosier cabinets helped homeowners (read: the woman of the house) to stay organized in the kitchen. Everything was off the floor allowing easy sweeping and mopping. (I get a serious case of the willies thinking about spaces under modern-day stoves and refrigerators.) My dad uses a Hoosier cabinet base and table in his art studio. Someday I hope to inherit these pieces.
