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…

Ikea AND Ree? Now that sounds like a perfect day. I am addicted to Ikea’s coffee. I don’t know what form of crack they put in it, but it beckons me.
The closest Ikea to us is a 2 hour drive, so we make it a family outing every 8 months or so… Even the kids spend days talking about it afterward.
Huh, I think that last statement might just qualify us as small town folk 🙂
I am so stinkin jealous! It looks like you had a fabulous day! Two of my favorite bloggers in the same place at the same time…awesome!!
Pick me! 🙂
Looks like fun!
Your blog got me started. I’m am new but loving this community. I really need some inspiration so, I would love the book.

Fun! We went to Ikea last weekend, too!
Would LOVE to win it!
Very cool- love her recipes and giveaways.
How I wish we had an Ikea close by. It looks fun!
I loved this post. My husband might just owe PW his life because he is eating a lot better due to her cookbook. Not an experienced cook here……working towards being called a decent one….and I loved her cookbook. The fact that it has pics for each stage made me feel so much more confident in my ability to cook. Love it!
As for Ikea….pretty much furnished my whole first house with it…like Target, walk in with one thing in mind but walk out with a hundred other things!!
Girls just wanna have fun! Thanks for sharing your PW escapade…..
Ree and IKEA in one day…what a fabulous day.. Love your rhyme! So cute!
I need to get to Ikea ASAP to peruse the outdoor section, the new furniture looks amazing! I’m so excited that you had an extra Black Heels signed for us “Letterheads”…I loved reading her blog posts and can’t wait to read the book!
OHHHH, my I Love PW!!!!!! And I know you giris had a blast together!!!!!!!!
