i offered to take them off her hands if she'd make me a deal, but she's so fantastic that she gave them to me for free. then, to make it even better, she not-so-subtly suggested that she and her husband would deliver them to my apartment if i baked something for them in return. um, free delivery of perfect end tables and all i have to do is BAKE? this was basically a dream come true.
not having a whole lot of time on my hands i had to go for something semi-homemade, but i wanted it to live up to my high standards of delicious treats. enter ghiradelli brownie mix. this stuff is the BOMB. for real, best brownies ever. so i mixed it up, baked it and gave them away when my tables arrived. i highly recommend picking up a box for yourself, whether you're making them as a barter item or just to eat at home.
the great tables in question:

not too bad, right? if only every weekend were this great.

What a great deal! Seriously. And um, yea, I fully agree...those are the BEST brownies. They are dangerously yummy. There are some really good ones at Trader Joes too, Truffle Brownies I think?
Anyway, great trade. Well done.
Cute tables! I'm so proud of you. So when you made the brownies for them, I'm guessing they allowed you to try them ? :) Sounds like a good deal to me!
Wow...those are nice end table! What a score! And I love brownies so I guess I should come visit you so you can make me something delicious!
wow. How you get things for free so often is beyond me.
