love this very much!!!!
Very nice :-) I have one just like it and makes a good place to lay little things in .:-)
I remember when Drs smoked in hospitals on their rounds ! When my dad had a stroke his cardiologist told him to quit smoking and the Dr was smoking in ER while he told my Dad that . My Dad replied to us IF he can smoke why can't I ? But there was smoking on OB floor by Drs ,nurses and the patients with newborns imagine that today !
Smoking was everywhere. When I used to cut hair (Barber) -- WE -- while cutting hair would smoke. That would have been the early 1980's still.
How times change.....
