finders keepers


found this recliner over the weekend. It's on craigslist in the LB area, if you're interested! it's in really good shape and great for perusing the Joy of Cooking, trolling for a decent cookie recipe. With a bit of heavy handed negotiation, I'm sure the girl could be thrown in on the deal.
