RE: From The Land Of Ikea - Comedy Open Mic Week 3
No, I haven't :(
We recently moved to an IKEA desert (to be clear, the closest IKEA is a five hour drive from our new residence) so we no longer go to the store. IKEA experiences are now punctuated by two large smelly dudes scowling at us while unloading huge boxes of IKEA freight out of a short-haul delivery truck onto our driveway. No meatballs. No intrepid cart-rides down the super wide aisles. No absurdly large bags in stark, primary colors into which go items we are unable to pronounce.
On a side note, was in Iceland recently (apologies, not trying to conflate the Scandinavian people into one homogenized unit) and learned about their obsession with putting salted licorice into everything. The flavor sort of grew on me... are you Swedes doing this little trick too? Still haven't been to Sweden yet, someday soon :)
Oh yea we are also about the licorice when it comes to candy. It's really weird for a lot of people that we have such salty treats but we like salt in general. Coming from such a cold place preserving food with salt I guess has given us a craving for it.
