The post-birthday world

You know you're tragically old and unhip when your boyfriend's parents and your own parents both buy you kitchen utensils for your birthday - especially when it's because you've asked for them.




 My birthday loot this year was:
 - a utensil with a massive, terrifying blade for slicing things very, very thin.
 - an awesome vegetable choppper from Global Knives (made like a Samurai sword).
- A Kubus candlestick - a really classic Danish design by the architect Mogens Lassen from 1962.

I want to make it clear that I had an awesome and very hedonistic party as well. It ain't just domesticity around here. Yet.
