Today Claire and I ventured out to IKEA for breakfast. A friend from Bible Study told me they had breakfast there for one dollar! I can always go for breakfast...and for one dollar? It didn't take much persuasion! Today is Rememberance Day here (like Veterans Day in the US). Lots of people must have wanted to celebrate by eating breakfast at IKEA. It was packed!
When we got upstairs to the restaurant we got in line with everyone else. I noticed a lot of people had little shopping buggies that held your tray...some smart Mom must have thought this invention up! I grabbed a couple of chocolate milks and one of the dollar plates. They had a bunch of other stuff too, but I wasn't sure how hungry Claire was.
Here is what we got for a dollar. Looks good, huh? Claire pigged out. I shouldn't have shared with her, because she does NOT share well. Next time, she will get her own plate. She loved everything!
And the best part was the chocolate milk! We stopped by the kids section when we were done. Claire found a chair that spins and wanted to spin there for the rest of her life, but we managed to get away and I got to look around.
When we were in the checkout line, they had a moment of silence for Rememberance Day. I don't think I have ever had a moment of silence in a store before! I was very respectful during the moment of silence, but Claire needs some more practice.
When we got home, Charlie surprised us by coming home early. It sure did make my day to spend extra family time together.
