HOLY CARP!!!

We made a trek to Ikea this afternoon. Quite proud of us - in and out in under an hour! Just like the store, we were efficient. The item I'm most excited about - a wok. I'm doing stir fry for dinner!

| And how are you today? | |

Does the wok come with an Allen wrench? |

Ah, I did miss it here. ![]() We didn't really think to do a stir fry until we were already home. So, it ended up being chicken, steamed broccoli (one of the microwave steam bags), white rice, and peanut sauce. I would have preferred fresh broccoli so it was more crisp. Also more veggies. For the ingredients we had, it was palatable. I did enjoy it very much. I've always wanted one. Believe it or not, bach, it came assembled! |

Not really I just put oil in the wok, then added the chicken. Gotta get the laughs in! And with this edit, I will say I only edited the previously edited post to apologize to you. I felt it was weird to just have a post of "haha" Edited by LWpianistin, Aug 9 2015, 04:15 PM.

We put a nightstand together today. So far we've survived 3 trips to Ikea, and assembling 3 items of furniture without it getting to blows or arguments. |
