FAMILY SHOPPING DAY

Last week  I had asked my husband to go to IKEA with me...haha.    We were actually looking for a entertainment piece to sit his huge TV on in the football room.    The football room is now being transformed into the new family theater room (I told you I have a ton of projects going on).

We have the 2 yr old home in the daytime, but decided to pick up our 6 yr old from school at lunch time and take her with us as well.    I thought it would be a fun trip...kinda like a museum where you just are walking through rooms of stuff to look at (okay maybe it's just like that in my head)

The girls had a great time....they were oooohing and aaaaahing the whole way and saying "I  want that"..lol

After we made our way through the top level, you end up never the IKEA restaurant area.   We decided to grab a bite.   I have had their hot dogs and their ice cream but nothing more.

Cool trays

My husband grabbed a Greek Salad and a wrap (which he ate before I could take a pic)

I went for the meatballs, veggies and potato/broccoli medallions

Now.....I am also a blogger on the Woodbridge Patch website and I posted this account of my day there as well.   I mentioned that 1-2 days later, it came out about the horse meat.   I didn't say that this particular store was guilty of it,  just that the company came out and said there were traces of horse meat in their food.  

Well let's just say that readers were not happy and left some not so nice comments on my 1st post for the Patch.   But I answered in a calm and collected comment but I welcome all feedback so no sour grapes here.
