cause really, what says “budget” like a spur of the moment trip to ikea?
one where you fill your GIANT BLUE BAG with $100 worth of items you didn’t really know you needed?
how could i live with myself if i passed up drommar for only $5.99? whatever would i make my tarts in?
and one can never have enough bevara…especially at $2.99.
do you see this fabric as a wild wood-printed skirt?
i do. i think it will be cool.
and this box for $3.99 looks perfect for organizing sewing supplies…something desperately needed around here.
and this loaf pan is longer and thinner than the standard ones i have—better for sandwich loaves for school i’m thinking???
oops…how’d that choklad sneak in there? ;o)
are swedish calories less fattening than american ones?
the weird dichotomy about ikea is that when i visit i want to come home and strip my living spaces of all non-essentials. i envision clean straight lines and white open spaces…a place for all the necessities and everything in order.
but i come home with a bag full of things…
kluttor.
the swedish version, but clutter just the same.
Oh, how I wish we had an IKEA here. I've never been to one, and everything that I find online that I want is only available in stores. I guess I'll just stick to doing my budget shopping at Target.
ReplyDeletefyi - drommar means dreams and bevara means to keep. Tone
ReplyDeleteooh! a translator! yay! okay, the "bevara" i see...but drommar? maybe we're dreaming about fruit tortes now?
ReplyDeleteokay...maybe that isn't so far off from truth.
i do love my fruit tortes.
