Hej!
We had a fun morning at Ikea with a Swedish friend. It was horribly busy, but after we'd finished lunch, my friend showed me the shortcuts through the store so we could escape without dragging the children all the way round.
We reminisced about all the things we missed from Sweden (that you can't buy at Ikea!): päronsoda and sockerdricka are my two favourites, but I consoled myself with a couple of cans of Kopparberg non-alcoholic pear cider and a big block of Daim chocklad! Mumms!
We also talked about how hard it is to buy Swedish books abroad, even online, since most Swedish bookshops require a Personnummer (well I do have one, but I don't actually know it... I probably have a card somewhere, but it goes against the grain to use it really) and most of them won't actually ship utomlands. Ahp (with a sharp intake of breath)!
