Friday Five

1. What did you last eat -- a caesar salad with chicken for lunch

2.  What is for dinner tonight -- taking my daughter and her best friend to 5 guys and Fries

3.  What is the most expensive piece(s) of furniture you own and how long have you had it -- ummmm we have no expensive furniture, we're kind of an IKEA house but I guess probably our sectional sofa which is 3 years old

4.  What is your clothing style  lots and lots and lots of black and gray

5.  What are your weekend plans I have two days of rehearsals, our daughter has a friend over for most of the weekend and they have a theater workshop to go to, and I think we're going out as a family for dinner on Sunday

<p>What's a murphy bed?</p><p>(I could google it..... )</p>

Sorry, I went to bed before you asked :)   A murphy bed is just a pull down wall bed.  Since the spare room is also my workout space *and* it's only 7x11, I thought having a pull down bed in there would be more convenient for juggling the dual usage of the room (not having to drag up a bed frame and set up a bed every time I have guests).  I like it, but I think given how often I have guests (very rarely), I should have just sucked up the idea of building a bed :)

My dd's furniture used to be mine so it is old lol.

My dd has my childhood bedroom furniture as well.  My parents bought it at an antiques store, and I have no idea how old it is.

And I have found the quality of their stuff to be great. Is your sectional Ikea, Bea? B/c I'm really comtemplating the Ektorp sofa and loveseat and that will require a five hour trip. One way. But washable slipover means I won't want to kill DH for eating on it...which is totally worth a 10 hr drive to me...</p>

I have an Ektorp couch, and it's pretty good.  The pillows on the back have a tendency to look rumpled, but the washable cover is really nice.
