It's a story about my awesome husband and how he almost burned down IKEA.
Here's the story in his own words:
"So I went to see the phenomenon that is called IKEA. And while I was perusing, I noticed they had cinnamon buns for $1. (What a great idea to have food while you shop...that's for the dudes.) Anyway, I payed my dollar and was told the buns were self serve. So I went over and got my little wax paper hygienic whatever-those-things-are-called and calmly reached under the glass to get my cinnamon bun. I had a moment of hesitation trying to decide which delectable cinnamon treat would be mine. That moment of pause had consequences... Suddenly my little hygienic-paper-thing burst into flames! But, I'm an Eagle Scout so I remained cool, calm and collected under fire-quite literally. I blew the fire out. It wasn't that big, but it was still noticeably flame-y.
Still holding my smoking paper, I looked up at the cashier lady who was looking at me with eyes as big as the cinnamon rolls (which were not small). She just looked away. I don't think she knew what to do. Not wanting to be wasteful, I used my charred wax paper and retrieved my cinnamon bun as I carefully avoided the heating element this time. I got a little bit of ash on my cinnamon bun, but it still tasted delicious. To be safe, I left the store shortly after I ate my bun, so I could avoid any potential criminal charges."
Before I go, I feel the need to say "WAY TO GO CARDINALS!" They are the 2011 World Series Champions! To be honest, I don't really follow baseball...but I do like Matt Holliday and he plays for the Cardinals, so I wanted them to beat the Rangers...and they did! But from what I've heard, the team owes a lot to this little guy:
