Stimulating Shopping

Yesterday was a day of shopping. Denis had a few things on his list for his apartment; I just like shopping.

We went to several places, but I will only discuss the highlight of the day:

IKEA!

There is an IKEA in LA! Actually, there are two. Two! We just went through the one. Denis was getting sensible things for his apartment. I was making a bunch of impulse buys. It was so fun! I have been so careful lately with purchases, but yesterday at IKEA, I just had fun.

Mostly useless junk, but so, so fun.

In the evening, one of our errands took us close to the area where a Goorin Brothers hat shop was. I’ve gotten a few hats from Goorin, and I’ve loved them. I continue to get emails from them and fantasize about buying more hats. There was one in particular that I saw online and wanted to try on, so we stopped. It was out of stock. Dang. It was still fun to look though.

So many varieties. Such good quality.

I fly back to Maui today. I’m not leaving until the afternoon, so I’ll get back at night, but it’s still not an overnight flight. I’m glad for that.
