Salt Lake City


I spent last week in Salt Lake City, and I'm headed back there tomorrow morning. Unlike most of my recent adventures, I didn't have any great culinary experience to inspire me to create some sort of new delicacy. What did inspire me most on this trip was a visit to IKEA. I love that store. I bought a few things and hoped that my purchases wouldn't send my bag over the dreaded 50 pound limit at the airport. It's bad enough to pay the $15 bag fee, let alone having to pay extra for it being over the limit. Anyway, back to IKEA. Everytime I'm in that store I get inspired to go home and do something creative at home. I spent the weekend rearranging some furniture, and placing my purchases throughout the house. I also spent some time reviewing the catalog to make sure there isn't something else I need to pick up when I'm back this week. I didn't do any cooking this weekend, Dan is out of town, so no brunch at LOLA, however I did make my own version of their Mexican Mimosa. I decided to share with you a painting I did for my apartment. I hope I get even more ideas and inspirations this week.
