ikea

I’m happy in Utica. Everyone I’ve met so far seems super nice, produce in our local market looks good, there are local farms-a-plenty if I’m feeling jiggy, a whole ski resort in a neighborhood park up the street, a zoo, cute restaurants of every sort, a health food store, a decent Target and a TJ Maxx. What else shall I want? After ten months here, it turns out there are a few things I miss. Here are my first 5 (of 10).

The internet rumor mill in Central New York is claiming THIS major store is opening in Syracuse. Is it true?

What's a business you'd like to see open their first Utica/Rome area location in 2022?

With all the vacant mall space we have here in Utica, even at Destiny USA and Shoppingtown Mall in Dewitt, can we please open an IKEA?

I love these little folks.  For years, my wife has been creeped out by gnomes...claiming that they are always looking at her.  Maybe they are, who knows?  Check out this Ikea advertisement featuring some gnomes who have had just about enough of being treated badly and now they are ready to take their revenge...
