We’ve just come back from a wonderful trip to San Diego. While we’re there, we always visit the IKEA store. I cannot describe the wonderfulness that is IKEA, and apparently, their web designers can’t either.

We saw an excellent kitchen table that can easily seat six people when opened and folds into a small, two-person table. It is the perfect table for a small apartment where you might want to the flexibility of entertaining, but most of the time, you just need to eat breakfast.

Unfortunately, I can’t find this table on their website. They have many “folding” tables, but the descriptions are minimalist and the pictures make all the tables look the same.

Sadly, I’ll have to wait until IKEA opens a store in SLC (Spring 2007) or until we visit San Diego again and are willing to haul it back home across three states.
