If I believed in astrology, I would think that some weird alignment of the stars lead us to make three major purchases (the Ikea kitchen is the first) in one week. We'd been looking for a new bureau for Eleven for months, trolling Craigslist and a local place, Uhuru, but we hadn't found anything that all three of us, Eleven, Rex and I, liked. Rex is especially hard to please, but his recalcitrance worked out this time. If he hadn't been holding us back, we would not have ended up with gorgeous bureau (which does have all its hardware, even though the pic makes it look otherwise). Don't you love how the all-white room makes it look like it's floating?
I still can't believe I'm letting Eleven have this instead of keeping it for myself. I must be an exceptionally good mother.
