This picture is my favorite thing in the house--the gerbil cage. I took one picture of it with a butter knife on top to give you an accurate image of how narrow it is, but I put this one in accidentally instead. Dad says it's about 18 inches across on the outside, and the gerbil cage itself (where the clothes are put) is 12 inches. It reminds me of when Matt used to talk about their "blenders" in Japan--their version of a washing machine.
This is our monster fridge. It's about as big as it looks. It's a challenge to shop once a week, 'cause there's just no room for things, but it's fun.
This chandelier is in our bedroom, and I just fell in love with it. It wasn't until I took the picture that I realized how dusty it was, but you can all breathe easier, 'cause I washed all the glass and ceramic stuff this weekend, and it's shiny and beautiful. Our bedroom is large, has room for a king bed (two twins put together), a large dresser (which we don't use) and a full wall of closets (which we do use)!
You can see our lovely windows and tree-filled back yard, as well as her wall hangings, one tapestry and one sort of a silk-screen.
And this is Hank all settled down for a sandwich for lunch.
You can see why I love our little home. It's a treasure of European flavor and art and coziness. Thanks for letting us share it with you!
That's all for now. Our class starts in 3 minutes!
