I bought some items for my house and kitchen. They included the following:
A straight-from-the-oven-to-your-plate serving dish.
I had bought these a few weeks ago and loved so much I went back to get more. They also come in clear glass.
A Mini Pizza CuterWorks great for small appetizers or a one-person sized mini pizza
Tiffany blue flexible cutting board
I have to be honest that I bought them because of the color. But they are also functional!
I would probably have bought more things but we only had an hour and we had lunch at IKEA, too. They have big portions of food, so you may want to share that order of fries.
Later we had to go to the airport and pick up the parents. They had been gone for "Spring Break" (if you can still call it that for them; really more of a break from Winter). They went to Playa del Carmen, Mexico and LOVED it. They are already planning on going back later this year or next Spring Break.
P.S. They have also decided to retire in Mexico, they have been going for years and started building a home an hour or so from the ocean since my dad likes the outdoorsyness of it all. They may plan on moving locations and getting closer to the ocean (on the Pacific side). They have about 5 more years to decide, but I know they are antsy for an early retirement. Once my little bro is done with school in about a year or 2, they may decide to depart early. After having a view like this, how could they resist?
We all spend the night catching up and being invited to their next vacation. I was excited to be invited, usually the parental units like to vacation alone and have it be "just the 2 of them". A trend that started as they became Empty Nesters. After 20+ years of not being alone, I think it was time they took care of each other without the kids (myself included) around.
