Comfort Corner
The carpet is thick, soft and cream coloured, while the walls are a yellow bronze colour. In the corner along one wall there is a large sofa, able to seat 4 or 5 people comfortably. Along the other corner wall there is a smaller sofa for 2 or 3 people. In the middle of the furniture, there is a low, round coffee table, perfect for colouring at or for other craft activities.
There is a scratching post and a cat tree for climbing, which are both along the wall opposite the couch. A few fluffy beds have also been put out, in varying sizes, in case any one prefers the floor. There is also a large sturdy perch and a marked off area that says "Landing Pad" in case any winged friends want to visit.
There is now a blue chaise chair in the nook as well, which has been placed near the couch and is good for both sitting and spreading out lengthwise. There are also two armchairs; one an oversized, deep gray leather chair, the other a square fabric armchair in deep blue with light purple swirls on it (Think this style except not grey).
There are two baskets off to the side. One contains fuzzy blankets, a variety of fuzzy and textured pillows, and a collection of stuffed animals while the other contains a variety of art supplies, ranging from colouring pages and blank paper to crayons and coloured pencils, and more besides.

I'm back!
Bitterballen are made by making a thick meat stew, chilling it until not quite frozen, then breading and deep-frying. Real Dutch ones are rather bland, but these have been kicked up a notch with onion, sage, rosemary, and a bit of thyme..
So, yeah. Hoist the horizontal tricolour and play "Het Wilhelmus", I am writing from Den Haag, in mijn nieuwe huis (which sounds _almost_ the same in Dutch as it does in Murkin, it's just spelt differently)... we're nowhere near completely put together yet, but! we're cooking-functional, and sleeping-functional, and cat-functional, and things KEEP ARRIVING... the motherlode will be mid-December, where we put all the things we wanted to keep from Back West on de boot and sent it around the world the long way... it's somewhere in China as I write this, and will transit the Straits of Malacca, probably tag India, run the Red Sea gauntlet, and probably hit one more port in the Med before arriving in Rotterdam. It's been AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH for two months now... but I'm finally coming up for air, sort of... Fiber drops Tuesday, and then we will have WARP GIGGLEBIT SPEEDS...
But yeah. I could use a SNUGGLE.
Re: I'm back!
I'm glad things are finally starting to settle in :) Extra yay for having the cats and things mostly functional.
Those bitterballen sound very yummy. :)
