Not knowing what to expect inside, I was surprised by the comfort that was evident even though the place was decorated simply with a mix of antiques and newer pieces designed for a modern country home.
“This is amazing Barb.”
“You like it?”
“Absolutely. I guess I expected a lot of antiques and you do have some but, I don’t know how to say it...I didn’t expect the soft leather couch and chairs and all the wood. It looks so warm and comfortable.”
“Dana’s mother did most of it. She’s quite talented.”
“Chloe did this?” I spun around looking at everything again.
Barb nodded. “She did Mel and Dana’s place and figured out she had a knack for it. I asked her to do mine.”
“Where are my manners,” she asked herself more than me. Can I get you something to drink?”
“No thank you. I’m fine.”
