My whiteness, confirmed

I found this blog, "Stuff White People Like" a few weeks, ago, but yesterday's post was especially enjoyable since I spent most of yesterday drooling over furniture at Room and Board.

I didn't buy any Noguchi, Eames, or Saarinen, but that's probably only because I don't have the money. I've wanted an Eames rocker for a while, but it'll have to wait. I did get myself a new mattress. It's 100% natural latex, wrapped in bio wool and organic cotton, since my new favorite thing to be afraid of is toxic chemicals. Specifically this week it's mattress "off-gassing." It was probably sprayed with flame retardant anyway, but I tried. Lest you think me mad, I should also point out that latex mattresses are good for allergy sufferers such as myself, because dust mites can't live in them. Which is of course the real reason I bought one, but it's not as sexy sounding. It weighs about a million pounds, so I have to wait for it to be delivered on Saturday. I'm counting the days--very exciting stuff.
