I JUST WANTED A PIECE OF CHOCOATE CAKE!

Yesterday I thought about the delicious rich chocolate cake IKEA serves.  Mentioned it  to MC and he agreed  why not go.....We didn't have anything else on the "Calendar"?

It is an easy drive to IKEA in the late morning and early afternoon.  No traffic!  Leave around noon and return before 2:30.   No problem!

Of course before we went into the cafeteria we walked around .......Trouble!!!!

We found a piece that is  perfect and it was so, so reasonable!!!

We were home before three,  and here we go.....

 
THIS TIME HE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS...FIRST



  Are you "seeing" this?   It's a round coffee table, a few inches larger than the chandelier...great proportions.

 Before dinner, we had a new round coffee table......even "styled"!  




This table is unbelievable.  It's from the same collection as the wall unit  we put up in the dining area...BUT...the BEST PART.....
PRICE
$49.99

 Back to the Chocolate Cake!   Never did get it!!!  They had a "new" Apple Cake and we chose to try it......BIG MISTAKE!!!!!  
It wasn't nearly as good as the Apple Cake they had before....will have to go back for the

 CHOCOLATE CAKE!

  1. Great purchase!! I love Ikea so much, but it is about an hour away for us and in terrible bay area traffic so we only go when we know we are getting something there. I have been craving chocolate cake and you have added to my craving. I get one piece at our grocery store, it is chocolate, and fudgey, Heaven. I don't dare bake one or I would eat the whole thing!!

  4. That is the most perfect piece of chocolate cake in your living room. Love it! And of course, you already have it put together and styled….you two are something…Never pick the apple over the chocolate - the chocolate is always better in my book!! Happy weekend…

  9. That is a perfect table....I wonder what it would look like painted gold like people have done with the shelves! You should have stuck with the chocolate:-)
