Since it's birthday week around here, I thought I'd dig through the archives and see if I could pull out some of my favorites. Well, I couldn't. Honestly. There's just too much good stuff. So, if you feel so inclined, I urge you to browse through all the archives yourself. And enjoy #77...

While this style wouldn't necessarily work for me in a living room space (where I would want a bit more warmth) for the kitchen or casual dining room, I really do love it. Plus, it would be easy to cozy up in the winter with a big floor rug or some curtains... maybe those infamous faux fur pelts from Ikea for the chairs!
Either way... if I could enjoy a lovely supper here with friends on this gorgeous sunny Seattle day, I absolutely would. Here's to many more fabulous rooms to come...!
