Ardbeg update

We all know that the real reason you follow Atomic Wieners is to catch a glimpse of the dashing, charming and adorable little Ardbeg. He is very much a mid-century wiener, his favorite seat in the house is on the Molly chair next to Matt, preferably in the (rare) sunshine.

Yep, there's Ted in the corner, just in case there might be food involved.

Ardie has now graduated puppy kindergarten and puppy jr. high, has been enrolled at doggie daycare, has been neutered, microchipped, and is covered by pet health insurance. These puppies sure are a lot of work...but this little guy is worth it all.

It's a bar! It's a sideboard! It's a credenza!

Here's the latest furniture addition we've added, after many months of consideration. Matt has always wanted a bar to display his whiskies and to serve drinks from, but I've wanted a sideboard for storage and serving dishes in the dining room. We've been checking out Antika every so often, since their stock changes fairly quickly. Finally we found this piece and decided to go for it...it initially seemed bigger than what we were looking for, but it's narrow and has a low profile so it seemed to fit in. Matt's tall whisky bottles fit in it, which was a hard feature to find.

We had friends over for dinner last weekend, and one of them commented, "This piece is awesome. It must have come with the house, huh?" So I guess it looks like it belongs here, in our atomic ranch :)






Now we're all set for the season premiere of Mad Men, ready to host the party.
