BFFs

Right after Mr. Blandings and I were married I discovered that two of my favorite friends from college did not know each other. “Nearly impossible!” I protested. They had frequented the same watering holes with some regularity. “You would love each other!” I declared over and over.

1940’s French leather club chairs with nailhead trim.

One night, morning actually, about 2 a.m. our doorbell rang. I’m a bit of a chicken. I pleaded with Mr. Blandings not to go to the door. I cowered in the hallway as he rounded the corner to hear “Land Sharks!” being yelled through the side light. My friends had found one another.

Imagine my delight while clicking through 1st dibs to see C. S. Post offering pieces on the site. C.S. Post, you will remember, is owned by Chuck Comeau, who also owns Dessin Fournir.

Comeau is one of my favorite shining examples of farmland fabulous.

I have to say, I think he’s showing off a bit.

We’d love to have you stop in to our little Midwestern wonderland. Just please don’t ring the bell at 2 a.m.
