You know that point where the milk hasn't quite gone off, yet, but, when added to tea, you end up with congealed bits on the sides of the mug and on the surface?
Oh, yeah, I know that. My coworker D and I take turns buying milk for our tea, and the fridge in the kitchen is never good enough, so the milk goes off really quickly. Of course, usually this isn't a problem because D uses a quarter-cup of milk per mug of tea. Or more. We go through a lot of milk.
Flea, that looks like a nice place! I'm glad the trip was successful.
We got the Restoration Hardware book/catalog in my office, and it is killing me with want. Like, I had no idea I wanted something like this [link] but DO I EVER.
We just got that, Jesse. I've been browsing house porn for days.
Yay, flea!
Mmm, Restoration Hardware. I don't know that I've ever bought anything from them but I do love to browse there.
I kind of want to go to an event with Neil DeGrasse Tyson and hold up a big sign that says I AM OKAY WITH PLUTO BEING A DWARF PLANET
I've been browsing house porn for days.
It's ridiculous/incredible. I am in love with the midcentury-steampunk thing.
The only thing I have from Restoration Hardware is a replica India Company tea set: it's a little tea pot with two smaller pots that sit on top, for the sugar and the cream. Unfortunately, it's coated with silver, which makes it (a) impossible to handle when it's filled with hot water; and (b) tarnish. So it looks nice but I can't use it and I have to polish it.
I was so disappointed when I finally went into a Restoration Hardware. I thought it was going to be an old-timey hardware place...not furniture porn.
I love to browse. DH doesn't like their distressed pieces, though. He's a huge fan of John Pawson and we'd live like Cistercian monks if he had his way.
I was totally Sue WRT Restoration Hardware. I actually went there for the first time looking for odd-sized 1920s vintage drawer pulls. They have nice drawer pulls, but not for vintage furniture!
Calli, that chair! OMG.
I want to challenge Neil DeGrasse Tyson to a a game of Scrabble. No reason. I just want to.
