A contre-courant

I've watched something on tv the other day where they said that people gave less and less importance to dining-rooms. And companies selling furniture had started to adapt themselves to the situation.
(lol, yeah I know, I'm about to jump into a very exciting topic ;-)

People tend to have their meals on their sofa in a few minutes only. Preferably in front of tv.
Sometimes by choice, sometimes because of lack of space... As it's been the case for us..

We've desperatly tried to find a way to get a real table for meals. Our flat is really small and every corner occupied with a fireplace or a door. That was impossible to put a table without blocking the way.

Till we found that the ONLY answer to our lil probbie was a 80cm diameter round table! A Bigger one wouldn't fit, a smaller one wouldn't be ok for more than 2 people.

But average tables are bigger than that!

We've been looking for it since months now. And finally we found it! A garden table!

You can't, no, you can't imagine the pleasure it's been today to have a normal meal on a table.
Terrific
Much more decadent than a meal on a sofa.

Simple pleasures are definatly the best ones ;-)
