Beautiful Gift!

Our dear friends, Kathy and Barry Marder, whom we've been showing on the blog and who just left for home in Florida a few days ago, left us a very unexpected gift: the most beautiful wood placemats! The kids presented them to us this morning. Barry and Kathy, thank you so very much for such a thoughtful and lovely gift!

(We wont' have any trouble placing guests' plates on these beauties...people are always dropping by. So now we can show them off. These are ooohhs and ahhs for sure!)
