I just got home from spending my birthday money.

In addition to a handful of other sundries, I got a couple of VERY exciting things.

A ruched, red satin corset for the Iveys.
An 8 inch Wusthof chef's knife.
A bottle of Caymus.

These are big ticket items.  These are some serious gourmet shit.  I am a little weak kneed about FINALLY having a proper chef's ( Read more... )
