I love visiting Ikea even if I never buy much. I just love looking at the rooms they put together, especially the ones where it tells you how much square footage was used. It’s really impressive.
We visited the Bolingbrook Ikea Sunday morning and we actually bought more than two things. We got two ceramic bowls, three small flower pots, some cutting boards, a spatula, a set of 6 colorful little snacking bowls, and some trivets. I especially love the ceramic bowls because they aren’t deep like a normal bowl, so they’d be perfect for a stew, nachos, or a salad. I look forward to using them. As for the small flower pots, we’ve decided to grow our own herbs. I still haven’t decided which ones, however. Right now I’m thinking cilantro and chives, but I’m not sure about the third one. I want to grow something I like to use but am too cheap to buy because I don’t use it often enough. Any suggestions?
