This Week's "Tuesday Find" is a Wonderful Vintage Mahogany Game Table with Inlaid Checker Board!

This great little 17"  table is perfect for a small corner and that quiet game of chess or checkers!   The top has a beautiful "burl like" grain in the mahogany with a checker board inlaid with what appears to be Oak & Walnut.  The pedestal with three feet was added to this table top...definately not original, although the two seem to work well together!  If you're not one to play Chess or Checkers, this would function well as a lamp or side table.

Squirrel Brand "Creme Brulee' Almonds" are back!

Back by popular demand!!!  We just received a new shipment of "Creme Brulee Almonds" (Squirrel Brand) because so many customers asked for them that I just couldn't make them wait until the holidays!  So if you're looking for a great gift for yourself or someone else...these gourmets nuts are the answer!  If you haven't tried this decadent treat, stop by the store and try a sample!  Once you try them, you'll be hooked!  We'll also  have these in the Beautiful Mahogany Gift Box (32 oz.) again for the Holidays.
