Grandmas Go Shopping: IKEA

We are also “ladies who lunch” - college friends who have waxed and waned over the years, and now have grandkids, children’s books, and enthusiasm in common. Maythee’s grandkids needed art supplies for creating at her house, so Grandma’s Went Shopping. Of course, we didn’t realize until after that this was a universal mission, and we didn’t take pictures! But Ikea does serve lunch, so it was still a perfect meetup! Also look for KAFFEREP Biscuits, (letter-shaped cookies) and VÅFFLOR (heart-shaped waffles) in the grocery section.

And, we decided that we WILL keep doing this, and hope you will too! Send us your pics and what grandkid gems you find! Grandycamp doesn’t receive any promotional dollars from anywhere, even Amazon, so this is all just for our benefit! HERE’S more art inspiration in Grandycamp.
