IKEA

Regardless of my schedule for Sunday, we ended up going to IKEA today. I was tired and really didn't feel like making dinner, and IKEA has the cheapest healthy-ish food, and very kid-friendly. We are lucky to live fairly close (15-20 min. drive). So we drove up, and first we had dinner (lox & greens salad, boiled veggies, mac & cheese, meatballs, small bottle of chocolate milk, and water: $18 total for four). Then we did the mandatory slide exploration, played with various toys on display, checked out the mattresses, investigated multiple reflections on the wall mirrors, talked about how the lights work, and took a ride on a huge flat shopping cart (next to 2 shelves for our garage). A good cheap evening, all-in-all.
