Congratulations to Nancy of Goat Rodeo for being Mo's inspiration this week. Her pulled pork sandwiches provided the word PULL for Manic Monday.
Do you realize there are 17 separate entries for PULL in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary Online? And many more phrases that use PULL:
There's PULL tab, PULL-Down, PULL the plug, PULL the trigger, PULL one's leg, PULL a robbery, PULL a prank, PULL an all-nighter, PULL a face, PULL a fast one, PULL the strings, PULL a punch, PULL one's weight and more.
I don't think Mo realized the diversity of the word PULL or maybe he did.
Isn't the word PULL starting to look like you should pronounce it PEWL?
Anyway, here's my contribution to Manic Monday:
DRAWER-PULLS
from Henri II Buffet Cabinet (c 1890)
reproduction antique drawer pulls from my bedroom furniture
from a dresser my father made in the 1960s.

When push comes to shove, those pulls are beautiful.
I think I've got the handle on this one ;-)
Hey whats next weeks going to be "tug" lol! You no like Canadian Geese?
Oh the puns are flying here today. hehe
I was just wondering how much it would cost to replace the 34 pulls on my kitchen cupboards.
We wanted to change the pulls on our kitchen cabinets, but we couldn't find hinges to match.
Happy MM!
You pulled the meme very far, lol!
Those are some pretty pulls! I love antique furniture, the workmanship is just beautiful and that history that it breaths on you...ahhh :o))))
Happy MM, teach!
As always, I learned a lot at your blog. Which is why I love it!!! I always pull for you. Yes, that was bad. Bad Nancy abusing the Poet.
I love all the pic's of the pulls. I too am a lover of the old antique stuff. I especially love to look at old glass door knobs. Great job with MM!

Mary, your blog entries are always so diverse. I love reading your blog.
Beautiful ....now not too fond of the meat being vegetarian.
You got a lot of pull Teach, let me see, could we pull together and support John McCain. Smile.
Very beautiful pulls!
Awesome post.
Drawer pulls are much better than "pull my finger!"
Thanks for participating in Manic Mondays!

Those remind me of cabinets my mom and dad had.
