Last Friday was f-u-n, fun.
We rode up and down escalators…

…and ate Swedish meatballs and mashed pa-taters…

We tripped out on trays…

…and smiled at striped duvets…

We sipped tea on aisle four…

…and found lots of little goodies, all over the store…

We got hid our hands in our bags, and sang with invisible mics…

We ran into unbelievable prices that made me say “yikes!”

When we were done at Ikea, we headed over to Borders. We sat on the floor, and counted our quarters. (Not really….it just rhymed.)

We met lots of cool folks hanging out in the store…

…and I’ll never forget seeing this guy and his family stroll in through the door…

We had a blast chatting it up with the incomparable Miss Ree…

…and I had her sign an extra copy of her book, with love from TLC…

SOOO FUN! I’m so jealous you got to meet PW and Marlboro Man!!!
Awesome! What fun!
I love P-Dub! She introduced me to you, TLC and now I love You too!
I won’t get a copy of her book signed(I’m in MN), so it would be nice to win it…
Have a happy, rhyming kinda day!
Love, Trace
How fun, you are so lucky you got to meet Ree!
Looks like you all had a blast! Very thoughtful of you to get an extra copy signed and GIVE IT AWAY! 🙂
p.s. your smilies always make me smile!
Oh, I love The Pioneer Woman, I am so jealous. I would love to win a signed copy of her new book, how fabulous!
i SO want to meet pw & her marlboro man some day!!! jealous!
lovin’ this & lovin’ the chance @ the book! thanks girl!
Looks like the best time had by all. I would love to own this book…..
Wow, PW and Marlboro Man? Lucky girl you are!
I don’t now how I missed the big event! I live in Atlanta and didn’t know she was coming. Must have missed that post in her blog! Thanks for giving one of us lucky listeners a chance at feeling like we were there too!
That looks like so much fun! That book looks so good! Thanks!
I love IKEA and the Pioneer Woman! Thanks for a giveaway!
I need this book. I am a city girl married to a country, tractor-loving man. I’d love to read how Ree made that transition gracefully without losing herself in the process. I’d love to become a new, improved “me” with elements of my old self but better for having been “countrified.” 🙂
I LOVE PW (we share a love for dangly earrings, butter, and photography)…I found you through her…and now I LOVE TLC (you and I love all that are DIY, shabby chic and home design)!!! So very jealous for two reasons:
1) Swedish meatballs are amazing!
2) You met Miss Ree!
Ree and Ikea all in the same post! Heaven!
Hi! I am a HUGE fan of both of you and would LOVE to win the book! Thanks for the opp!
Would love to have her book. Was that a picture of Marlboro Man’s hiney?
Very cute.
Donna
Yep thats Marlboro Man alright. I recognize the BUTT.
Great pics. Thanks for sharing.
I would love to win! She is soooo funny. Her blog has the best recipes and pictures of delish food.
Cool giveaway! So thoughtful. I wish I could’ve been there! 🙂
I love pioneer woman, I actually started reading your blog because of the link on her site months back. Looks like a fun trip!
I’ve already got her cook book, and would love to make this another addition to my library. Sign me up!
Oh, I’d love to read that book. I loved the version of that story she posted on her blog.
Wish I could have been there! Nice break from the floors!
I would love a copy of this book. I saw at Wlamart the other week and wanted it soooo bad, but then I realized I needed to buy groceries instead! I love your blog too…I’m moving next month and would love you to just come decorate my whole house! 🙂
I’m fascinated by both your blog & Pioneer Woman (and we don’t have an IKEA nearby…:( so this whole post is fascinating to me!).
Please add my name to this 700+ list of admirers (like a needle in a haystack!) 🙂
i can’t believe she was down this way and i MISSED HER!!!!!
I love Ree. She is how I found you. I love you!
What fun! I was looking at her book in the store last night.
Isn’t IKEA just fantabulous????
I would love to win her book…I had the opportunity to meet her when she was here in Columbus, Ohio….I have both of her books and love them! However at the time I just did not have the extra $ money to pick up a copy and have her sign it for my mom….If I am lucky enough to win I will pass along the book to my mom!
I such a super fan of all ya’all… Ya’all inspire me everyday… Thanks for all the good bloggin’
This is on my wishlist! Please pick me =)
It would be so great to win a signed copy of her book rather than waiting for 63 other people at the public library to read it first!!!
Oooh! Pick me, pick me!! I’ve been wanting a copy of the book, but decided that budget dictated that I wait for the paper back (too long)!
I would love to win! I love your blog!
I am going to Houston, TX next week and can hardly wait to shop Ikea. We don’t have one in Mississippi. Every chance I get I visit one. Hope, hope, hope I win the book. I am so jealous that you got to see Ree and family!
If I win can you sign it to, Layla?
What a dreamy day you ladies had!
I have the same day scheduled for April 9th with my girlfriends – cannot wait!
Sounds fun!
Fun day!
What a great giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
What fun!
Love all the pictures! I’d love a chance to win. 🙂
Looks like fun was had by all!
What a fun post!!! Would love to win!
Love your Blog and PW’s Blog! 🙂
Missed Ree when she was in Dallas for a book signing last month. Would love to win a copy!
oooh I would LOVE a chance to win her book!
Looks like you guys had a blast =)
Oh man oh man oh man! A TLC/Ree combo?!!! I’m pretty sure I would love to give this to my mama who is the biggest fan of both of you! Pick me, pick me! 🙂
