And so I went on line - and came across this double bed headboard
with the cutest little footboard
John says - why do you have to become friends with everyone you talk to?
Suzan says - what do you mean?
John says - Well how many emails does it take? You either take it or you don't
Suzan says - it's call negotiating John -
Suzan says - and sometimes there's back and forth - sheesh !!!
And this is the way the negotiations went - read right to the bottom to see what a sweetheart I was dealing with!

Good Evening!
The bed frame is for a double mattress and the price?
How about $80?

Thanks for the quick reply – but if the entire bedroom set is for 200 – I was hoping I could get the bedframe for 40.00
Thanks again – and good luck!
Kind regards,
Suzan
I was more than willing to negociate. But you took all the fun out of the experience.
You hurt my feelings :(((
I suggest you visit the free section. You'll find what you're looking for...Plenty of great offers.

Let's quickly fix this !!!

Lol – what is your lowest price you’re willing to accept?
I really wasn’t trying to take the fun out of anything ( super super stressed out – renovating an entire house and looking for a headboard
For our guest room - )
Really sorry – never meant to offend !
Can we start over?
Hey, Susan!
Tell me: When could you pick it up?If $50 sounds like a fair price, it's your.

It only comes with the box spring. If all of this is convenient for you, I'll be around tuesday morning for the pick up.
What do you say?
Fany :))

This morning, I dismantled the bed for you. Super easy. No bolts or screws.
If you like the night tables, they're yours :)

Really? I think I love you Ms Garceau !
Thank you SO much
And sometimes that's the way negotiations go - just like friendships - they hit a rocky patch and then everything turns out beautiful in the end!
She also threw ( literally ) an adorable clock - ( milk paint ??? ) and a mirror - plain but wood
And then John called to tell me there was a table there - that her Grandfather had made and what did I think?
OMG - I'm too overwhelmed to think -but the price she offered it to us?
Yes please!!!
It's going to be our main outdoor dining table - I'm IN LOVE. This is a keeper - and makes me seriously consider expanding the kitchen to turn this into a butcher block island
John says - HAVE YOU LOST THE LAST LITTLE BIT OF YOUR SANITY?
John says - WE'RE NOT RENOVATING THE KITCHEN - WE JUST DID THAT
John says - TO ACCOMMODATE A TABLE WE FOUND ON CRAIGS LIST?
John says - HAVE YOU LOST THE LAST LITTLE BIT OF YOUR SANITY?
John says - WE'RE NOT RENOVATING THE KITCHEN - WE JUST DID THAT
John says - TO ACCOMMODATE A TABLE WE FOUND ON CRAIGS LIST?
Well we'll see - does anyone else love this as much as I do?
( it'll be outside but in a protected area - until I expand the kitchen LMHO )
A butcher block table - MADE. BY. HAND.
You know that furniture speaks to me, right?
Oh the things this particular piece has been telling me - about Sunday dinners - and a couple worrying over bills during the depression - and homework spread out over it - and dogs being fed under it and pie shells being rolled on it - generation after generation.
At the end of the day, this find probably is among the top 5 that I've ever found - and seriously very very close to being on the top of that list even.
I'm ready - more than ready - to start giving it new stories to add to the layers..............
( e.g. a new couple worrying over renovation bills )
Thanks SO much Fany - such a pleasure doing business with you!
xoxo
And on another note presents arrived yesterday from across the pond - waaaayyyyy across the pond - as in Australia - from Dee over at the OLD FAT HEN - hop over and see the gorgeous candles she makes - and of which I was an extremely lucky recipient!
She calls them Australian Bush - and I don't know which scent mine is - but it's heavenly !!!
For Christmas I was gifted with a batch of loose Peppermint tea - and I was just mentioning to John last week that I MUST pick up a tea ball so that we could try it out - and lo and behold
With my signature Paris token !!! Can't tell you how much I love this !
There was also goodies
This Violet Crumble is exactly like our Crunchie bar - which I love
John says - Oh look she sent one for each of us
Suzan says - ummm no, she sent ME two of them
This card will be framed without a doubt
THANKS SO MUCH DEE - you can't know how touched I was to receive such thoughtful gifts...........
Now I'm praying you don't take any offence here - but the last gift scares me - I've never seen it in my life
( I thought it was a hand cream until I read your card LMHO )
Soooo - before trying it - I decided to google it to see what it was like ( as opposed to just tasting it LOL )
What does vegemite taste like?
Any preferred methods to prepare it? or should I save my money.

It tastes like fermented yeast that have died and puked. I tried it as a psychology experiment, so I recommend you try it, spread it on some melba toast, but if you don't like it, don't be surprised.

- Thanks for describing the taste for me.

If you have never tasted it, and you are already an adult....you will most likely never like it. It is salty beyond belief and just horrible. Most people who like it, are introduced to as a child and learn to like it.
It is excessively salty, so if you are going to eat it, eat it with something else. Good on sandwiches, but you should put other stuff on it: Tomatoes are good, cheese, mayonaise... Or toast it with cheese and a non salty meat. I like it on a toasted turkey sandwich with swiss.
Pretty similar to marmite.
Extremely good in a toasted sandwich with cheese, or spread on toast with a poached egg on top.
I was never given it as a child, but I love it.
Blech!
It has a taste kind of like the aftertaste in your mouth after you've taken a multivitamin. It's definitely an aquired taste, and not easily aquired at that!
If you really want to experience the british influence, you're much better off with a cuppa and some biscuits!- Imagine sucking on a rusty nail that's been soaking in salt water for a year... actually it's not as good as that!
- It tastes like salty snot mixed with soy sauce. Oh come off it, man, you've swallowed you're own snot.............admit it.
yuck :(
Suzan says - But Dee sent YOU the Vegemite - I'll make you some on toast !!!
And as soon as I saw the name it brought this to mind immediately ( I still watch this series almost every night - it never gets old for me )
Has anyone tried Vegemite?
Has anyone tried Vitameatavegamin?
Have a wonderful Thursday everyone - we're babysitting this week - man oh man am I getting old -
on Friday we have three of them - pool day for sure ! ( and I'll be working on that headboard at night )
