I am so VERY lucky! Renée, the poppers were gone by the end of the 2nd day! I ate them all in 2 sittings, I'm embarrassed to say!! I enjoyed taking the pictures! The kids just cannot understand why I keep getting presents from my "Secret Santa!" [I don't even quite know how they understand the concept of "Secret Santa" (as we're Jewish!), but they do!] The DOROT cookbook is FABULOUS! I keep reading and reading it. It is so rich in stories, the recipes are almost incidental! I truly enjoy the reading and will continue to read and even reread! Renée, again, I am so greatly appreciative of everything! Thank you!

Well, Diana, you've just broken the poor "teddy bear"'s heart! See how dejected she is? Actually that's her usual pose, in the middle of the kitchen floor with her legs folded up underneath her like a camel. She is a goofball! And she's also as fat as a toad thanks to all of the treats that she's been getting lately (the vet says that she isn't...SHE insists that she isn't but I know the truth). She was delighted enough to give the box a big "snoof", that was treat enough for her. Plus she helped my son play with all of the bubblewrap :-). But thank you. She is very cute and very goofy and she makes us laugh a lot. She's a rescue rottie. Nina

LOL fly "but it honestly wasn't clear to me" Personally I could see right through them. As for the CB2 blueprint chairs they remind me too much of the cheap lawn chairs almost everyone had, but us, way back in the eighties. I doubt any of them are still around since they didn't last long. Well other than the "impression" they left "behind". Maybe CB2 should call their chairs imprint instead. As for your table Malhgold, it reminds me a bit of our old living room tables I updated for our daughter's first apartment. Just used furniture refinisher to remove the finish and then used water based walnut stain (this is part of what helped to achieve the "grain" instead of it soaking in like oil based would have after using any solvent)with a cheap brush that separated easily. And a bit closer of the new look...
