Eastern Wisconsin calls it soda and western Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota call it pop. It has gotten people into some pretty intense arguments. Along with the bubbler/water fountain argument.

I usually stay out of them (I actually call it a drinking fountain) but if you are in the right mood it is fun to instigate it and then watch.

Couch + loveseat with Ottoman.

Bed Settee is a couch that converts to a bed, as does a Futon, but they dont fold out, they fold flat.

Soft Drink...not soda or pop.

Actually *Soda Water* is a great mixer.

But...it looks like a sectional. ;)

I wish I had your couch, it looks really comfy and it's a good color. Silly me, I went along with MB's choice of couch. It was white. Was.

As you can see from that pic, we have pale timber floors. Most of our furniture is rosewood, so we've gone with chocolate for the couch and floor mat. I would have loved off white or cream for the couch and mat, but with two kids and a husband who is housework challenged, I thought it best to go for the other side of the spectrum. :)

Yup, looks like a sectional to me.

We call them modular over here.

A couch MUST have soft arms for sleeping ,
a sette is for old ladys to SEt in and discuss the flowers ,
a love seat is for lovers , But I can still sleep on a love seat Quite comfortably .

Modular does sound better. But if I asked for that over here, they'd probably send me over to Ikea.

Aliantha 05-27-2007 11:19 PM

well they have some nice stuff at ikea, cept you have to put it together yourself.

I have an Ikea office chair right in front of me, that still reminds me of the pain I went through assembling it. It IS a cool chair, though, and has held up for a few years.

DucksNuts 05-28-2007 12:36 AM

I love Ikea, but self assembly is a bitch!!

I have one of those huge PAX wardrobes, it was awesome planning it and picking out all the little extras...but I was cursing putting it together and will do so even more when I have to move house.

Speaking of putting things together...I put my new Treadmill together the other nite....what a heavy m f'ing thing that was!!!! 92kgs in the box and not a lot lighter outta the box (getting it out was half the battle)...silly independent woman that I am...I HAD to do it all by myself and feel quite smug when I run on it :D

Aliantha 05-28-2007 12:37 AM

Good girl!

bluecuracao 05-28-2007 12:48 AM

That's awesome. As a bonus, you probably burned a lot of calories just putting the thing together. :)

We have an IKEA wardrobe at home too, but not PAX, I don't think. The doors haven't been put on yet, and it's been...a long time. Ugh.

DucksNuts 05-28-2007 01:08 AM

The doors were soooo expensive, I have curtains on the outter sections and mirrored doors on the inner sections.
