Hi, Geoffrey,
Hope you are having (or had,
I'm not sure when you were
coming back) a great vacation.
I just wanted to check in to
see if you would be able to
make me some cabinets before
September 22, when I open. I
love the tables so much and I
think the cabinets would look
great too. Please give me a
call when you get back to
California.
Best,
Maureen

Jill thanks for your reply to the ad, and yes, i will take ... but i can't hold it, so the best thing would be to call me on my cell.-

Hi Jeffrey, thanks for the candles. They are wonderful. I lit one last night and have one on YOUR round table as well (which, by the way, looks fabulous in my house)! It's wonderful to have a story to go with the pieces of furniture in my house. I love that idea. Keep on doing what you're doing. I'll keep an eye out for more stuff your making.Maybe there might be something I can't living without!

Hope to stay in touch,Jill


Thank you for our gorgeous
table.

Round for around $360..


Furnitureman,

Thank you
for the our new table. We will love it well. I'm sorry the drive took you so
long. Hope it didn't muddle up your
day too much. If I hadn't had my meeting, I
would have had you in for tea
or something of the sort. I will recommend you to anyone
I know of who's looking for
sturdy beautiful handmade things (and
my mom might hit you up too). You're also welcome to use me
as a reference for prospective customers, or quote my raving
reviews on your website. I very much appreciate your kindness
and good-natured communication. Hope your trip is fruitful and
fun. Wow, sounds like you did have a
better day than I did, though mine was pretty darn good just
the same. It started out the
night before when things magically
fell into place and a nice man
agreed to bring me a table. Then in
the morning I went to my
meeting (and I wasn't late!) which was
a power point presentation on the human breast (I'm a
midwife.) It was interesting
but sometimes I think people take the fun out
of everything when they
over-analyze it scientifically. It's just a
breast! A wonderful breast but still just a breast. Women have
them, babies eat from them.
Point taken. Then I had a nice drive
home and smiled lovingly at the table which came from a tree
that had already been cut down
somewhere long ago and someone had put it
all together lovingly with his hands and now we can all gather
around it, eat some good food, have some long talks, drink a
beer or two. Maybe my grandkids will sit at it one day and
remember what mark came from
what family dinner. We'll make art
on it, knead bread on it, play games across it. And then my
partner Carlos and I went to
teach our salsa (dance) class and
everybody had a good old time.
Then we got home and he made me a
Cuban feast of platanos, black
beans and rice, bistec and avocado
salad.
So, that's where food comes in.
Oh, man, I should have warned you about the prices in this
town! It's kind of a local
rule...don't eat out! Though it sounds like
the food was tasty. You'll have to let us invite you to dinner
at our house (no numbers
attached) if you ever are willing to come
this way again! And your
friend, Craig, too. Well, I'm glad all worked out.
Having a good attitude sure
makes life smoother, eh? I very much
appreciate yours. It's true
that while there is a monetary
economy that runs the world and
causes all sorts of problems like wars
and poverty, there is also a very strong economy of kindness
in which serendipity is on your side if you put goodness out
into the world.
Take care and safe travels and
keep in touch.
Peace, Brooke

Fellow foodies: Check out Deconstructing
Dinner, a radio show out of
Canada all about food and
environmental issues, put on by
Kootenay Co-op Radio:
"Independent Media for a Food
Secure Canada." You can stream
or download past shows on
everything from packaged foods
to coffee. If you listen to the
show "Slow is Beautiful," and
then read my short story here
on the blog, you'll see what I
was getting at. The Furniture
Man is definitely connected
with the ideals of the slow
movement, which urges people to
slow down and be more present
in their lives, to foster
community -- artisan work vs.
the increasingly high-speed,
mind numbing lifestyle that's
supposed to spell success and
happiness according to our TVs. http://www.cjly.net/deconstructingdinner/

First of all, thanks furnitureman for a
great harvest table. We had bought the table, made
from cypress, from you in the
spring and absolutely love it. We were
wondering if you had any
shelves that are longer than taller,
72" long rather than tall.
Would it be possible to order one?
David.



Good Morning furniturman,
I absolutely love it and will
not be brining it back - can’t
wait to get the companion
table. I did decide however,
that I would like a bench that
fits inside the original table
instead of an extra long bench
to extend the length of the
table and its companion. Just
tell me what measurement you
need and I’ll send it to you. I
hope your trip to DC is
everything you hoped. Take care
and let me know when you’ll be
back in town to discuss the
bench and companion table.
Cheers,
Rebeka
