A new piece of furniture is coming to live with us today. It's a couch - a tiny couch that will spend quality time with us in our den.

We liberated this little couch from it's sad life in the clearance room of a discount furniture store.

While we liked it for itself and for no other reason, we were absolutely sure that it should come and live with us when we turned the tag over to learn about its pedigree.

There, on the back was an indication of the colour of this forlorn little couch.

It read: Blue Steel.

'Nuff said. It had to come live with us.

(I want to thank the creator of the Blue Steel website for the picture.)
