> [@elbows](#): > > Do you, by any chance remember the name of the pillow. I’ve just been on their site, lots of pillows, looking by price isn’t the best, I’m thinking! Bergven is the pillow I just bought. I’ve been haunting the Ikea website waiting for them to get it in stock again. Now, I’m impatiently waiting for it to pouf up so I can try it out. ---

My master bathroom has a bidet. How I lived so long without that in him home I frankly don’t know. ---

I’m with you on this --the price/value ratio on this pillow is incalculable. My neck loves me so much! 😃 ---

I make tiramisú and eat one every morning for breakfast. I make ten at the time in a big glass tray, freeze them, so I can cut them up, put them in tuppers, store them in the freezer again, and my wife takes one out each morning two hours before I wake up and puts it in the fridge so I get a nice demi-glacé tiramisú to start the day. ---

Eating tiramisu for breakfast is, well, decadent 😉. ---

Looks like it’s out of stock at my local store but in stock in Renton WA. Which side of the continent are you on? ---

Looks like the closest store I can find is Canton MI and they’re in stock there. I tried to add one to the cart to see where they’ll ship to around the area but the website keeps wigging out. Dunno what’s up but it’s obviously experiencing Technical Difficulties. 😉 ---

I spoiled in 2 ways. First, I like new socks, especially the way they feel. I buy myself new socks every 3 or 4 months and toss the old socks. Second, as a whiskey drinker, I have found cheap whiskey to be pretty bad. I rarely spend less than $50 on a bottle and have many that cost more than $100. Thursday I was one of 50 winners in a raffle to buy a single barrel single malt whiskey from a renowned distillery in Seattle. I consider the $155 price tag to be money well spent. Can’t wait to get the bottle and pour me a dram. ---

Washclothes. I have to use a fresh one every time I wash. At least 2 or 3 a night, 1 in the morning. I take them with me when I travel. ---

I retired from 15 years at a piss test job, and am indulging to my heart’s content. I imagine I’ll taper off a bit after a while, but I’m nursing a knitting femur so I have a good excuse for being recliner bound. ---

I am married to a tech enthusiast with a tech job. I get to take over his devices after he updates to the newest model, which keeps me in well-maintained, almost state-of-the-art phones and laptops. All my technology problems get cheerfully solved as soon as I mention them, and if I want something he doesn’t use (graphics tablet, camera), he knows where to get cheap, new or lightly used items with precisely the features I want. Oh, and he also serves me coffee in bed. ---

My Wife and I finally ordered new living room furniture. A couch that has two recliners, and a reclining chair. They are electric so every thing it does is an independent movement. And the chair is remove control… Mostly because their are so many options that you kinda need to look at the controls. I’m gonna have fun with my guests with that. Oh yes 😈 And we are going to buy a 70 inch TV. What the hell. Can’t take it with you. ---
