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…

I. The Menu – clearly not limited to crayfish

  • tossed green salad
  • cucumber salad
  • hard-boiled eggs with mayo & shrimp
  • shell-on prawns with cocktail sauce
  • Najad salmon with horseradish sauce or mustard sauce
  • Crayfish
  • breads & cheeses
  • meatballs w/lingonberries
  • mashed potatoes
  • boiled new potatoes
  • desserts & beverages

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

IX. Someone else doing the cooking

X. The woman in the picture is probably not the one who will be serving you.

XI. Lingering smell

XII. Novelty factor
