.. where Ikea is mowing lawn on a tractor

Hello there! It’s me, Ikea!

wohoo! lawn-mowing is great fun u know! because that’s exactly what i was doing last week! and, because of the very very very very nice warm weather (it’s been like 30*C EVERY DAY last two weeks!!!) i have been extremely busy outside. in fact, i barely have time to take fotografs! (or post them.) but here comes:

a bit hard to see from behind the wheel, don’t you think, hehe! but actually not so bad. for example, i saw the puppies very well in advance, look:

and here’s another one!

and here’s one chasing me, hehe! (and yes, they are the same puppies i was visiting the other day with the rain.)

i have to say i have not heard of any other giraffes mowing lawn with a tractor before, have you? but it is very much fun as you can go pretty fast and have to have your eyes opne for puppies. it is good that i have great big eyes, u know.

what about you, have you been mowing with a tractor lately? let me know your fun doings in comments! have fun and cu l8r!

ooh, almost forgot!! ikea4fun is now in Riga, Latvia! that’s just great thing.

.. where Ikea goes wild-strawberry-hunting with Saab och Volvo

Hello there! It’s me, Ikea!

Apparently, there is this other thing better than strawberries – you’re right – wild strawberries! so, with a little planning, we successfully excecuted this idea from couple of weeks back. unfortunately Undu wasn’t there because we could not find him as we set out for the expedition. actually, nobody knows where he was during that time. although i think he was sheeping…

so then, it was up to me and teddies. we set out to explore the wilderness with Volvo in charge:

as i turns out, they have a pretty good nose for wild strawberries! also i found out that wild strawberries are teddies’ number three favorite berries. number two being cowberries and number one – blueberries! well, that’s quite obvious really, just look at their face, hehe. but i have to say, Volvo and Saab eat pretty much everything. like paper for example!
in fact, even on our way i already spotted some, like here for example:

so, before the teddies could find out, i quickly grabbed..

.. and wohoo, it tasted well! :)

so, in no time we managed to hunt down a great spot of wild stawberries! in the fotograf u can see everyone concentrating on this little game we invented in the process. it is called “fun foraging” and it’s very simple – to find and eat as much berries as possible in least amount of time. it is great fun, quite recommended! here’s some fotografs of teddies playing:

->> Volvo jostling his way to the catch..

->> Saab about 1 second before the little red treats are no more.. (u can see Volvo just behind him in the grass!)

->> Volvo now posing for the camera. just for a second really!

->> and here’s everybody sunbathing, totally loaded with strawberries i’m afraid!

it was in fact quite hard to move after such intense and fun game that we had. i think i even stretched my neck a little (it’s ok by now). apparently, Volvo won the game. we agreed with the teddies to have a followup for the hunt soon too. they suggested to go for the blueberries this time and i agreed. im not such great fan of blueberries myself, but i think it will be fun to see Volvo and Saab playing fun foraging again, hehe! what about you, have u played fun foraging? perhaps you have a different name for it – let me know! have fun and cu l8r!

.. where Ikea is having lots of fun :)

Hello there! It’s me Ikea!
well, it’s not the blog mystery that’s so fun as u might think. and i have to tell u it is quite mysterious and it might not be over yet! i have to keep an eye on Angel, he’s my prime suspect right now.. but, it has been quite a lot of fun happening other than blog mystery. for example, i was watching football!! not that i haven’t watched football before, but it was the oranges who played and won, jei!! here’s me and undu watching:

another fun thing i discovered is that with the twitter. for example if u use #NED there is a little flag of Netherlands! and when u use #worldcup then u can see a little ball!! very nice! !

but also, i was busy with some other fun things. for example, this other day i discovered this very long road:

it goes right into the sea, i’m afraid. with all this sun outside, of course i could not resist to do some sunbathing, hehe!

then, last weekend i was doing bag-hopping-on-a-stone! have u tried it? it looks pretty much like this:

it is very good fun and a little scary. especially if u are a giraffe, like me! u can do it on your own, but it usually helps if u have someone helping with the bag. because it CAN be a little heavy. u know, if there are books also inside the bag, for example. or other things.

also, u can do bag-hopping not only on stones, but pretty much everywhere u go. u know, it can get you very nice places! for example i got to this very very very nice place with all the wild strawberries!!!!

wohooo, i think wild strawberries are climbing right up into my top 100 best things to eat chart!! in fact, i am contemplating putting together an expedition to go wild strawberry-hunting in very near future. i know the teddies are in, not sure about undu. he’s not so much into vegetables, u know! but i have to convince him, he knows these woods and meadows inside out. also, he always has some fun story to tell!

so what’s up in your neck of woods? any wild strawberries by chance? let me know and cu l8r!!
