IKEA Coming To Tampa !!!! 

IKEA is coming to Tampa! To many this may mean nothing, but this has special meaning to me. I LOVE IKEA!!!

Years ago, when I lived in Europe and was just starting out with family and children, we just to purchase our furniture and everything from towels and pillowcases to pots and pans at IKEA. It was trendy and inexpensive - extactly what young families want!

When I moved to this country I left all my IKEA furniture behind! Then about 6 years ago I opened a coffee shop and wanted to put IKEA in. So I had everything from tables and chairs to sofas and loveseats shipped down from the Northwest since there was no local IKEA!

So I am pleased as punch that we are now getting an IKEA right here in Tampa! It is set to open during the Summer of 2009!!! I for one can't wait! It is a great place to purchase things for my granddaughter's bedroom!!!

Ah, IKEA memories!!!! Little things that make me smile!!!!
