Bed Bath and Beyond

Even fitting out the basics of an apartment costs quite a bit of money. I am now a lot more appreciative of hand-me-downs when I first moved out a few years ago.

Bed Bath and Beyond is a quality place for both kinck knacks and decent furniture items. Bec and I spent a solid 4 hours there to get our stuff. It was good to know that our tastes are relatively similiar, with minimal arguments over the fitout of the apartment (although there was a substantial amount of indecision over a cooking pot). The great thing is they package it all up for you and deliver it on the same or next day, depending on the time you purchase, for a relatively cheap amount.

So whilst Saturday was the purchasing, Sunday was the unwrapping and the beginning of the actual settling down into New York. The serviced apartment has always been temporary. Now that there's furniture and other things like toilet brushes in our new apartment, it's feeling a lot more like home. The more I see this apartment, the more I realise that of the ones that we were deciding upon, it was the best choice.

So for all those coming to visit, we'll look after you :)

And I'm down for watching the Yankees live, especiallly beating the Toronto Blue Jays 7-5 today. I have my own hat!
