This post is updated every time we visit and dine at IKEA. We love IKEA, not just for the fun of going around, looking at home stuff, and playing with the toys allotted for kids. We also enjoy their food - aside from being affordable, they have interesting combinations. At times, they would introduce new menus, or additions like breakfast staples, desserts, and take-away frozen options, and you just got to try. Here are some that we've tried on our visits (or those that we took pictures of). September 2021 The new IKEA Westbahnhof has become our favorite place to meet friends.

7+ Fun Online Games for the Whole Family
This generation definitely belongs to the online world. Books can now be read via readers, most of our childhood games are now online, and we've learned to love them too. There are of course games and sports that are better played IRL but, with the restrictions placed, it is not as easy like before. While there's some ease up given regarding sports, we believe that we should still be careful out there.

One of those is how to view money properly. It's not to make them look at money as more important than virtues, but that having and spending money should be viewed with a balanced outlook. We should teach kids about God and having good ...
