What does your Kitchen Table say about you?

Picking out the perfect kitchen table can take time and money.  Up until last month My Farmer and I had been using a hand-me-down kitchen table.  It was fine, it suited our needs, but we wanted to find our own table for our own house.  When looking for a table I wanted to be sure to find one that would cater our growing family for not only eating meals, but also fellowship and praying.  We settled on this table:


Our table fits the four of us comfortably and can be extended to fit eight.  (My Farmer joked around that the table gives us limit for the number of kids we can have!)  I love the plank-style table top.  It just makes me think that it belongs in our farmhouse!  I also loved the distressed veneer to the table.  It gives it character (and hides dirt and crumbs).

Through this blog I have enjoyed letting you join my family at our kitchen table.  Thank you for joining us and now I'd like you to pull up a chair to some other blogger's tables.  I have got to meet a lot of great people through blogging.  One group of bloggers that I have gotten to know well over probably the last six months or so has been this group of Iowa "foodie" bloggers.  All of us have unique perspectives, goals and blogs, but one thing we all have in common is a love for food.  We decided to get together to do a joint giveaway starting today, February 21st, through next Friday, February 28th.  One lucky person will win $225 for "pulling up a chair" to all of our "kitchen tables."  Here is a list of all the bloggers participating:
And here is the Giveaway!


a Rafflecopter giveaway

Good luck to everyone!  What would you do with an extra $225???  And once again, thank you for joining me at my kitchen table.

Be sure to Comment for a Cause!

(And by the way, this is how our table actually looks like with booster seats, napkins, salt and pepper and all...)

    Your table is beautiful. Do you mind telling where you got it or what brand it is?

    That's a beautiful table. Ours was used from an auction and isn't nearly as nice as yours. With this contest I could at least recover the chairs!

    Love the table! I have been table shopping lately as we are in the process of building new house and we don't even own dining room table! We have an oversized island in our kitchen now that serves as our table.

    First of all, these are lightweight. When I first picked up the "Deba" blade, I was surprised and a little taken back.best kitchen product reviews These were knives that the knife shop had displayed behind glass in a locked cabinet, so I was expecting a different feel.
