Book stand update: All I have to say is that I better love this thing... After I bought all the things to strip and sand the shelf, I had to get it professionally stripped/dipped after I spent about 10 hours trying to do it myself. That cost $45. I picked it up yesterday and they did a pretty good job. Got probably 98% of the paint off. I went to Home Depot and bought some American Walnut stain, spent 3 hours staining yesterday. Polyurethaned it once last night, I'll put another coat on this morning and I can bring it inside Saturday! YAY. It's a little darker than I wanted but I kept going over it and over it because there were some weird spots...
ANYWAY some sweets for the weekend whether you are look for a dessert or a breakfast extra!

In a bowl,
Add 1 sliced peach
2 Tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
