Cat on couch


Two of our local thrift stores deliver.

One had a half-off sale.

We landed a lightly distressed pleather couch, a wooden dining table, three kitchen chairs, a desk, a dresser, plus delivery for $172.50.

Cat sold separately.

Well, the couch looks like it has the Huckleberry seal of approval!

There is one downside to pleather; it doesn't breathe. You might want to toss a blanket over the couch. That way it will be warmer in the winter and less sweaty in summer.

I'm pretty sure Huckleberry would approve of that too. :-)
