Believe it or not, I find this topic enthralling

Remember my excitement over getting new silverware? Unfortunately, the silverware turned out to be low quality as one would expect silverware from K-Mart to be. We have to return it. And resume the search for silverware we both like.

We will be making a different "grownup" purchase today, however. Two of our pots have had to be thrown out in the last week because the teflon is shedding. We've decided that it's a sign that it's time for some good, grownup cookware. Our plan has always been to make due with our crappy quality stuff and our hand-me-downs until they're unusable and then replace them with the good stuff, so it's now time.

We need to spend this evening out the house anyway because the co-op downstairs will be shutting down for the semester, and since we can hear every word they say down there, tonight's noise may just kill us if we stay home. So today we're going to Bed, Bath, & Beyond and getting a nice Calphalon set. We'll keep some the pieces we have that are still good, but we're getting a whole new set. Thank goodness we've been doing well with not over-spending lately, because even with 20%, that's a big purchase.

Unfortunately, however, this means that we'll have to put off buying knives for awhile. We really need decent, new knives, but ours still work well enough that we can cook, so it's a lower priority.

Oh my goodness, I just wrote an entire entry about purchasing cookware, silverware, and knives. I'm so boring.
