Oh, that's a really smart system. I've ruined so many good acid bottles by using them on plain quartz just because I got unsure. The vinegar trick is clever, I'll have to try that. The tape idea is great too, anything to stop that mental loop of doubt when you're back at home.

Man, my buddy's antique table was his grandma's only heirloom.

My sister adopted her daughter and sent me a picture of the kid covered in spaghetti sauce. I was supposed to be showing a house but I got all choked up in the driveway. Had to pretend I had allergies so the clients wouldn't see me getting emotional over my phone. It's amazing how those little updates can make you feel connected from miles away.
