Buffet Beeches!

Ok peeps. Still no Halloween pics.

Husband was too busy to get me a card reader yesterday.

Right before I threw a Texas sized 4 year old tantrum, Husband made up for it.

Wanna know how?

Yep. That’s right.

He bought me a kick ass buffet for the dining room.

I cheered and woo hoo’d and jumped up and down as Husband and Roommate #1 carried it in the house.

Now before you get all “awww Raych, your Hubs is phenom and he has a nougat center cuz he’s so thoughtful and shiz” Please be aware that the first thing to come out of his mouth once the buffet was in the dining room was “so you can get your china out of the kitchen now. Right?”

See that?

Ulterior motive.

It’s ok though.

Cuz I’ve wanted one of these since we hosted Thanksgiving last year. Once the table was set and the food was out, there wasn’t any room for people.

I needed someplace to put all the food! (and hide my 3 sets of china)

What?

Plenty of 26 year olds have 3 sets of china…..

Ok but here’s my problem.

I had every intention of painting the crap out of this buffet.

Then Roommate #1 says “nooo don’t paint it… it’s got such nice wood!!”

My mother tells me this stuff all the time.

And for the first time in my life, I felt bad for the wood.

Stupid Roomate.

But here’s the thing: my dining room table is a light colored wood and the china cabinet (which still isn’t finished) is white.

I can’t have a dark wood buffet!

Ok so you peeps need to help me out.

Try and picture this buffet..

…in this room underneath the clock.

I know.

This is ghetto.

You’ll have to use your imagination because I STILL DON”T HAVE A CARD READER.

Let me have it.

paint or no paint? (if I do paint it will be the color of the china cabinet FYI)

And if your answer is “no paint” then you HAVE to give me an alternative plan in the comments.

Cuz I can’t have a dark wood buffet, a light wood table and a white china cabinet.

This isn’t the goodwill…

Yet.
