I have to agree with most everyone else - don't touch it. Get white towels, white bath mats, a nice shower curtain and tons of chrome accessories until you both are ready to install your dream bathroom.

Last sunday at 9:30am there were so many cars I turned around and went to Berkeley for coffee and breakfast instead. I had never seen anything like it.

I would agree on going straight to the back of the market and work your way forward. It is worth going early for furniture and specific items and paying the extra entrance fee. Bring all cash and bargain like hell. Don't be afraid to walk away and come back two hours later and keep on bargaining. I often see the same items from month to month. Yet, if you just want to look at chotchkies all day long and eat falafel you can roll in at 10am on a sunny day.

Railroad Tie Coffee Table is actually by a company named ROOST who sells wholesale only. A lot of Viva Terra's reclaimed wood furniture is from ROOST. There are other companies that sell ROOST products including Velocity Art and Design in Seattle who run a spiffy little website with a whole bunch of their products.

The kitchen with a thousand bacon breakfasts caked on the stove, no plant life to be seen anywhere except the corners of the fridge and the bathroom. Dust bunnies breading at an alarming rate beyond exponential expectations. The sound of rats in the attic and feral cats in the yard. But wait there's a lemon tree.

Sorry Emi, I love your new house.
