I feel so lucky to live around the corner from my neighborhood Farmers' Market in NYC! Since I belong to a CSA, I tend not to need very much produce. But I regularly buy milk, butter, yoghurt, cheese, juice, eggs and fruit. Sometimes fish or chicken. And almost always, freshly made tamales as a Sunday morning treat.

oops...I meant to say "the contrast between wood and paint".

Yet another option would be to leave the stain as is on the main part of the piece (I think it looks great) and paint over the lighter part in a high gloss enamel paint (as mentioned by SherryBinNh). But instead of trying to match the wood tone, paint it in a completely different colour - say white, or black, or a bright colour, whatever suits your fancy and works with the room. The contrast between wood and might might look swellegant and modern.

I recently had a *horrible* experience with latex paint fumes that would not go away for at least 2 weeks a major nightmare! And the room is still half-painted as I refuse to use the rest of the 'bad' paint, but can't justify buying new paint. What a great gift this would be.....!!!
