It's the day after Christmas and all through the house . . . we were tired of the holiday mess and ready to do something different. Our granddaughter is visiting from AZ for her first white Christmas in many years. Yesterday we were in all day watching snow flurries and enjoying the fire, opening presents and having fun being together as a family. She played hide and seek with her 2 young cousins and uncle and by the end of the day we were all exhausted -- except for the 2 little ones of course! So today we decided that we needed to do some antiquing and maybe find something new for our various collections. Success for me -- for her, not so much.
She found a hanging chair that was calling her name but probably wouldn't fit in her suitcase. I found a vintage narrow shutter that is 64 inches long and exactly what I wanted for a beam between my living and dining rooms. It was definitely my "find of the day".
After all that strenuous looking and shopping, we definitely needed a little sustenance so I tossed a coin (heads it's pizza, tails it's pizza) so pizza it is! Giordano's in Chicago is the best ever! We both love their stuffed pizza but not what's inside so we each ordered our own -- spinach for me (YUM!!!) and Canadian bacon and pineapple for her (YUK!!!). So now we are full and sassy and a little bit lazy and back in front of the fire each "doin' our thang" on our laptops. So happy that the collector gene has traveled to another generation and that she "gets me". Love ya, sweetie!
