What's on your Menu Today (Thursday) RNYers?

our house was built in 1953, so that couch would fit right in!!

I change up my deodorant every few months. I have one at home, one in my gym bag and one in my work "work-out" bag and they are all different at the moment. Mitchum usually does well for me.

I'm a Mitchum person, too.  I've probably used it for 30 years.

Mitchum reminds me of my grandma because that is what she wore. :) But yes, it is a good deodorant... In the meantime, I stole a tube of my husbands speed stick and it is working AWESOME!

Morning DD2 and Gang.  I believe the plague is arriving at my house.  My hubby and my oldest are complaining of a sore throat and feeling icky.  My 3 year old had a fever of 102.2 last night.  It responded well to Motrin, but he had pretty bad diarrhea yesterday afternoon when my hubby picked him up from daycare. I sent him to my moms this morning, and gave her the Motrin for a dose later today if he needs it.  My mom will keep him happy and she'll definitely call me if he gets really, really ill.  I'm feeling slightly icky, but it's not horrible.  I took my temp, but I was only at 99.7, so not really anything to worry about.  

QOTD:  Well, for things like furniture and appliances, my hubby and I have the same belief that if you're going to invest in something that will be a major part of your life for years, that you get the absolute best you can afford.  We bought our couches in 2010.  They are top of the line beautiful leather with electric reclining motors on the end of each couch and the love seat.  We have 3 cats and now the puppy and they are comfortable and still holding up really well.  The frames themselves are made of steel, and each couch weighs so much that we can't pick i to move it alone.  We hired movers when we moved in 2011, because the thought of moving the couches was horrifying.  Best $500 I ever spent in my life to pay those movers.

Have a great day everyone!

Hope you all feel better soon.

Hope everyone starts feeling better soon!

I hope everyone gets better quick!

Good Morning! Well good if you don't mind snow and freezing temp's! I tend to like recliners while hubby is a couch fan. Our current dilemma is when we leave the room our puppy pulls each cushion off the couch! That and when we sit on couch together for some reasons the cushions slide out from under us and away from the back of the couch!! Hope you are able to find a set you love and hope you post photo's when  you do. Yesterday's menu ended up looking like this:

B:coffee

L: Chili's with friends so had 'old timer' cheese burger minus the bun, 5 french fries, and 1 margarita

D: tuna fish with tbl. miracle whip

QOTD:  we have three couches and three love seats.   The living room couch & loveseat and the couch in the upstairs family room are good quality (we have two family rooms - the original one in the basement (which we almost never use), and one upstairs that was added years later - but before we moved here).  The rest are not particularly good quality.  All are fabric.

If I had to replace any, I'd go for good quality again, because our not-so-good-ones were definitely cheaper, but not *cheap*, and they just didn't last.   Our decent ones have held up very well.  Of course, we keep the cats out of those rooms unless supervised, so they haven't had adequate time to ruin the fabric, either (a 10-lb cat, of course, isn't going to have an effect on the frame - but they can do a real number on the fabric!).  I'd do fabric again.   I'm not crazy about leather, and suede wouldn't fit in our house.  

The living room couch is pretty comfortable - the rest are OK.  I actually prefer this big, comfy "chair & a half" that we have in our upstairs family room (it looks like a big comfy arm chair - and it is - and it's oversized - somewhere between a big chair and a loveseat, which was great when I weighed 300+ lbs!).  It also has a huge matching ottoman, so I can put my feet up.  Otherwise, I hang out in the bedrooms sometimes (esp later at night), lounging on one of the beds reading or using my laptop.  That chair and the beds are more comfortable than the couches...

Edited (to add this link) later:   This chair & a half looks pretty similar to mine.  Mine has an ottoman, too, though).  Love this thing:
