Also in the Breakfast Room was a parquet floor. 5 small wooden rectangular tiles going this way, and 5 going that way, back and forth across the room. I always liked it, even though now I know it’s supposed to be “cheap” or whatever. If I ever have the good fortune of a house, maybe I’ll put in a simple parquet floor. The Breakfast Room floor wasn’t shiny, and was pretty worn down in many places – not well maintained, honestly. But it was different than the boring straight long boards of the wood floors in the living/dining rooms, and I appreciated that!
