And then I begged for plasticware. For fun. And for the environment.

I’m having a birthday party dilemma. Cy’s birthday party, specifically. And if I lived close to an IKEA it would be solved by now. I REALLY want to put together a B-Day “kit” with reusable and festive plates, etc. I thought it’d be a great thing to have around, and I could even LOAN it to other people and be SUPER GREEN AND NICE. (I swear I read about this online. It’s not my idea, but I can’t find the post…)

And I’ve shopped around online for 100 million hours and cannot find a better price for BPA free kid’s dishes than IKEA. But we don’t live near an IKEA.

So. Um. I’m wondering if anyone who goes to IKEA often would be willing to buy me 4 sets of these:

and 4 sets of these:

and four sets of these:

and send them to me (flat rate box? boxes? maybe?)

and then I will give you money? But please email me first so that I don’t end up with 45,987 of them? I would be SO muy grateful.

And so would he.

I know. Shameless.

    Erin,
    I live very close to an IKEA store (2 of them actually…) but I don’t think it would be very handy to ship you the stuff overseas… besides… I have never seen such items in Italian IKEA stores, there must be slight differences between the stuff they sell here and in the US. Good luck for your research!!!! I miss you and think of you very often, especially when I enjoy your updates on a daily basis!!! Give “a big hug” to Cy!!!Lowy
