I got my new flatware today. The stuff we had started to rust! It's very groovy and designer-y, which is perfect for us being designers and all.

I first spied it in one of the big box housewares stores, but they didn't carry any serving pieces. I pulled up the web site of the mfg. on my iPhone and found they were having a killer sale on a 65 pieces, service for 12 for $99 plus free shipping. Well, the bargain shopper in me could not resist that. It also has a 50 year warranty. I doubt I'll still be using this when I'm 90 but who knows?

A picture's worth a thousand words...

But I wasn't fast enough. I was driving down Freret Street today and passed one of the new, groovy bio-diesel city buses. I was admiring the bus when I noticed the route info said it was "FERRET" Cracked me up. Maybe I'll go track it down...
