On the way to Salt Lake the other day Ryan and I dropped in on Ikea, which is always fun to navigate and explore. I love checking out all the room dispplays- it's like a giant playground for grownups. The cafeteria is also delicious and well-priced, so we had a lunch date with swedish meatballs, mashed potatoes, and lignon berry sauce, and a PRINCESS CAKE for dessert. they are my favourite dessert. Sadly, the camera died before we got to lunchtime. I'll have to put up my phone pictures.

  1. Hah. I have so many fond memories of Ikea.. Because the one around here opened up a year before I graduated high school, so me and my old group of friends used to go just to go--and meander the displays and take pictures and eat relatively cheap food. Your pictures made me smile :)

    And your dress is lovely also, as always :)

  8. I love Ikea. Most of my furniture in my house is from Ikea. It's such a fun place to get lost in for awhile. And the food is so affordable. I love their frozen yogurt for a dollar. Great pictures!
