I never believed it could happen, but I am actually jealous of a Naugahyde Ottoman. Fantastic, I read this aloud to my husband, and the Chaise Lounge I am sitting on, much to their amusement. My husband laughed heartily and I could feel CL was just itching to do a collab with Molly. She'll be quite prepared for Molly's visit.
