| 3. I'm simply mad for barkcloth |

My folks had slipcovers that were dark green background with the jungle florals and one chair had the same florals with a chartreuse background. Drapes were the dark green with florals like the sofa and club chair covers. To.die.for.

| 5. Me, too. A woman in the shop where I sell makes pillows with |

bark cloth remnants and sells them. I think she does pretty well.

I have two phones like that and they both work. Sparkly's little piano students always marvel at it. "Is that a phone? How does it work?"

We always called them "nun's shoes" because that's what they wore But my grandmas also wore them. They don't make them these days. I bet they were very good for feet.
