The Kitchen  When we went to Colonial Plantation, we got to see what happened in the kitchen during Colonial times. All the food that had to be cooked was cooked in the fire. They had all kinds of tools. There were tools to hang pots on something that goes over the fire; it was called an S tool. There were tools to put it in the fire and lots more. Working in the kitchen was a dangerous job, if your skirt got on fire, well, it was bad. There was a tub of water to soak pots and pans in and if you left a clay pot in the tub for to long it would crack. It was the women’s job to clean and cook in the household. It was very interesting to learn about how people in Colonial times cooked their food.
