    Memorare, O piissima Virgo Maria, non esse auditum a saeculo, quemquam ad tua currentem praesidia, tua implorantem auxilia, tua petentem suffragia, esse derelictum. Ego tali animatus confidentia, ad te, Virgo Virginum, Mater, curro, ad te venio, coram te gemens peccator assisto. Noli, Mater Verbi, verba mea despicere; sed audi propitia et exaudi. Amen.

    Meatballs and Kallax. Otherwise there is no earthly reason for IKEA to exist... 😆😆😆

      ANDANDAND…the Duktig doll bed…for cats, of course! I know that the Kallax unit also fits little square-shaped Kallax cat bed inserts, too.

      Holy moly, did I ever abhor the Burbank, California IKEA. That thing was even more of a mazier maze than other IKEA stores! 😂😂😂

        I don't go to IKEA often, and don't buy much when I do, but I love IKEA!

          Over the years, I’ve bought a few things at IKEA which I’ve truly loved. Thing is, one must be careful to not make the IKEA trip into Impulse Buy Central, as described in the linked article.

          I *almost* bought a piece of their SKÄNKA cookware once, because the name cracked me up, but they really weren’t great pots and pans, so…no. 😜

            Ikea has the best laundry drying rack ever made. Never had the meatballs...

                I am still sitting on my Ikea leather couch I bought in 1999 for 1k which was expensive back then. Barely fit, getting up the stairs of my townhouse to the second level. I only keep it now because it looks good, I spent a lot of money on it, and Iam holding on to it for the bull mastiff I will sadly never get. ;-) I also bought a chaise lounger that was overpriced and comfortable. And I have a rather nice computer table I got from them as well. Haven't had any meatballs there in a a long time. They have had weddings in the cafeteria section of the Ikea in my Woodbridge, VA store.

                I almost always just look when I get out that way, and there is no rushing getting out of the store. I never fail to get lost in there. Perhaps if I left a trail of meatballs, I would find my way out much faster. I always wonder how the staff finds their way out when they first start there?

                  I bought an IKEA meatball once, but the instructions that came with it were too damned difficult to interpret and now it’s sitting in a drawer all green and fuzzy.
