Fika at Ikea

Every Swede's favorite Saturday fun - Ikea. We're getting another
Billy book shelf. But first some sugar and caffeine...

Billy bookshelves make the world go around. We have 2 and my husband is insisting that our next one won't be Billy. SO I want Expedit!

Lovely kitties.

and after you've had the fika you go into the djungle fighting a fierce battle to get what you want ;)

We're addixted to Billy CD/DVD shelves here at Chez CookSister - they are the BEST! And people can say what they want about Ikea, I love it. We just make sure we go as soon as it opens and leave by lunchtime, then the crush is actually not bad :)

or if you are lucky such as I am, you can go during the week and then choose home delivery if furniture is involved :). Now I am at the point however that there's no more room for book shelves. One book in another goes. It is an efficient way to curb the craving for books, along with the craving for chocolate as you read the books ;).
It's an excellent place to go if you want to get things that you really won't have separation issues with. I can live with the loss of a 5 sek spatchula, or get a good set of steel whisking bowls for not what a chef pays for steel whisking bowls. I have both and with the price difference, I have got to wonder.
