FINALLY! The job is done!! The new carpet was laid on Monday....and I spent all day Tuesday putting things back together. I sorted, AGAIN, through baskets and boxes of toys,books,crafts,etc... bringing stuff back into the room. This time, trying to be more selective!!
Which meant, of course -- hauling stuff back OUT TO MY CAR for the Goodwill. (6 more bags actually LEFT the property!)

As it turns out, I had this Pottery Barn area rug in the back seat of my car ($4 at the Salvation Army)... |
|
I've always had an area rug in this room...heck -- this one goes with every wall. Whadaya think, Frankie? |
My MDF friends had REQUESTED a popover lunch...and I've been putting it off all summer because of ALL THE STUFF that's been sitting on the porch, waiting for the new carpet to be laid...
Hey -- carpet laid on Monday, Tuesday I'll put it back in order. The summer heat has taken a break, so Wednesday seemed like the perfect day to have them out for lunch.
|
Because NOTHING IS EASIER than popovers!! |
|
With my Mom's chicken salad and some fresh fruit...PERFECT!! |
|
Sandy, Carol, and my sister Ronda... |
|
Evelyn on the other side. |
|
The STAR of the luncheon was Mom's chicken/macaroni salad. DELISH..!! |
The new carpet looks great - and so does your porch lunch! I hope your weather stays comfortable. We're heading into low 90's again - in the Seattle area!
