I know, I know, it’s a slow news day (and I’m feeling lethargic after lunch), but I thought I’d throw this debate out there anyway:
IKEA is having their annual Kräftskiva (or all-you-can-eat Swedish crayfish party) on August 19. $9.99 for adults/$2.49 for kids under 12.
My question: Is this something you’d attend?
Before you jump to answer, here are some points to consider:
jump to avoid the work that you really should be doing…

- meatballs w/lingonberries
- mashed potatoes

II. It’s on a Friday
III. The place will be a zoo
IV. The drive to Frisco
V. Opportunity to pick up a gross of white curtains
VI. Distance from the ocean
VII. Value for the dollar
VIII. No liquor
