Did a little bit of...

shopping this weekend at two stores new to me. Ikea and Jungle Jim's

I didn't know what to expect when walking into Ikea, only that I wanted to get the same wine racks that Leaker has. Found new ideas for closet organization and kitchen redesign. The kitchen will probably come first, as it would be the most impressive update for the house.

Jungle Jim's is the craziest grocery store I've ever seen. I realized I need to expand my cooking repertoire to include Curry and Pasta, as their selection of Indian and Italian ingredients. (I'm saying this while eating my GFS Frozen Mexican Pizza.) Anywho, wound up buying some Cooper's Pale Ale, not Cooper's Lager, and 5 bottles of wine. Penfold's from Oz, and other random bottles that I found had amusing labels (Mad Housewife and Funky Lama.)
