  I loved  the show 'Designing Women'  from the get go. Four smart, funny, sarcastic women who run their own interior design company (Sugarbakers). What's not to love? So many of the episodes are classic, but  the episode where Bernice gets a nose job tops my list.  Here's how it shook out.  Bernice surprises everyone at Sugarbakers with the news she is having plastic surgery to make herself look younger. After seeing a computerized reconstruction of her face, she insists on taking a loan against her life insurance policy to pay for the operation. However, when the surgeon makes her nose look like a pig's, everyone is afraid of telling Bernice the truth.

T hus, began our summer spent retrieving rocks from the river; for what would become the most famous bathroom in town. It was a good size room with a long wall of mirrors, a claw foot tub, the essential toilet and a window.  Pop's idea was to

This is one of my all time favorite lines from the movie Legally Blond. Elle helps Paulette get her dog back, and with new found confidence Paulette tells her boyfriend she's takin' the dog. To me, this is a victorious statement. I use the line when I feel I've overcome something difficult or taken a chance and it pays off.  This blog lay dormant for over a year, until I decided. "I'm takin' the dog, dumb-ass"  My favorite line and a some of my favorite furniture - together at last.
