This will match my
beige couch perfectly.

Oh yeah, that's cute.

But, what if you don't
go so matchy-matchy?

You could keep one foot
in tradition with this one,

and then throw in a little
mid-century farmhouse fun

to spice things up?

I like that.

- I'll take both.
- Cute, right?

- CUSTOMER: Yeah.
- I'll get this for you.

- CUSTOMER: Thank you!
- You just relax.

We also have these great soaps.

Not to brag, but I made 'em myself.

You're all set. Enjoy!

CUSTOMER: Thanks. Thank you so much!

Thanks for stopping in and, uh...

we hope all your moments are tender.

Thank you.

Let me know how those soaps work out!

- CUSTOMER: I will.
- (LAUGHS) Okay.

- Mid-century farmhouse fun?
- SAM: Yeah, you know,

I just tossed around a
couple of words I heard

on "Love It or List It"
last night, and it worked.

It sure did. It was a great sale.

- Kind of fun.
- TRICIA: (LAUGHS) Uh,

I gotta go pick up Shannon. Are
you okay to hold down the fort?
