I had another visit to one of my most cherished places in Sydney over the weekend. That's right - IKEA!!!! I really do love that place but I was on strict credit card lockdown this time. In fact, my Aussie went with me so I really was on my best behavior. Our goal for the day was to get a dining room table, six chairs and six chair cushions all the while avoiding the Marketplace. The Marketplace is my favorite part, chock full of all kinds of things that you didn't realize that you were missing from your life. How gracious of IKEA to remind me!? And they are very strategic about the location of the Marketplace, funneling you through it to get to check out.
So although I didn't get the $90 oven-safe/stove-safe blue casserole dish with matching lid, I was able to snag the 365+ medium oven-safe frying pan for a mere $30. I pushed for some curtain panels for our front door but met resistance. It's okay though. My Aussie is going on a week-long ski trip in August that I cannot join him on because of work. So I'll practice my patience (and my credit card swiping) in the meantime.
