Porch sittin'

I decided that our new title for our blog is little more appropriate ( and it may change a few more times til I settle on just the right name) for us, perhaps because I'm obsessed with sitting out on our patio (for morning coffee, afternoon wine o'clock, or later dinners) or it could be because Dustin and I have an open door policy when it comes to our dear friends. For whatever reason, we'll see how and if the new blog title sticks.

We just recently found the coolest table at Southeastern Salvage that we put out on our back patio. We don't have much furniture or landscaping done, but this table makes us sooooo happy. It was a purchase that both Dustin and I agreed on without hesitation (doesn't always happen in the aesthetics department) so we scooped up the last one they had! The table top is round and heavy and roughly hewn with a steel rim hammered onto the outer edge, like a wagon wheel. The legs are slightly turned, giving it a french garden meets mediterranean feel. We paired it with some cheap teak folding chairs and piled an inferno of old candles in the center of the table and we are officially in business for dinners on the patio.

Simple dinners are best. Some nights we do a little salmon and veggies on the grill and other nights we just do a tray of olives, red peppers, smoked salmon, chips and guac. Either way, you can join us on our patio just about every night and find us munching on some snacks and drinking some vino! Please come over and keep us company!
