to lift my spirits I traveled to Ikea

Ikea.
My mecca of happiness.
AH! (that's me happy)

Here's what I came home with:


Wine glasses, duh! Needed because I am a klutz and break things at every opportunity. They are just so pretty and cheap at Ikea. Oh, and it looks kinda classy, which I totally am, right?


This is a really bad picture of a long rag rug, you know the type, right? Well, now we have one in our upstairs hallway, ours is a darker and has more blue. Lovely, really.


A wok, cause that's fun to cook with, but I don't really know how so send me all your wok recipes! I'll let you know how it works, but I'm guess wonderfully!


Pizza pan, totally needed. I tell you about the pizza we make, right? Tonight pesto and tomoto. Yum.


A can opener. Yes, I really am that exciting.


This lamp shade, with a base too, but not a really exciting one. Isn't the shade just so cool? I think so too. It's for my room, which was a bit of a dark dungeon, so it's a great addition.




Good purchases right?

So now when people ask me where I went for break I'll just say Ikea, cause that's my favorite vacation destination any day.

We had a HUGE cocktail party a few years ago and discovered that BUYING those wine glasses was cheaper than renting them. We own 100 of them now.

Rag rug, CHECK.

Just throw some oil, broccolllllii and soy sauce in the wok - with garlic.

I suck at homemade pizza...

Sadly, the can opener excites me.

You just WATCH - that lampshade is going to be ALL OVER the internet.
Just WAIT till the crafty girls see it...

We sometimes go to Ikea on vacay -
so I'm with ya!
