Everything old is new again
So when Eleanor first went to Lowes and ordered the tile for the now-laid new kitchen floor, I never saw exactly what she'd picked out.
"Oh, it's Armstrong commercial tile, [various specifications in essentially foreign language]- you know, pretty much the same one we had installed in our last house."
No recollection whatsoever of that. It's going on 18 years since we moved from there, and I had memories of something boxy and orange that are coming from gods-know-where. Fortunately, we took a LOT of pictures back in the day. Including this one:
Yup. Something DOES compare 2U, floor:
Same tile. Same hutch. Same kid. Different tail, though.
