Lunch and Indispensable...

I had a lovely lunch today with one of my very best friends, Kim. I've known her for over 20 years...we went to tech school together...and worked together at the vet school.  I love her...she and I have several things in common, but to look at us, we are the complete opposites of each other.  She is one of a kind...and the best kind ever!
Today was the first time I was in her new house since they moved in.  I visited several times while it was being built, and it looks much different now with the builders and all their stuff gone.  All cleaned up and furniture in place...it is an absolutely stunning house!  Kim put a lot of herself into it...very well thought out.

What would I do without these?
I would burn my fingers, for sure!  These are little wooden tongs...to take your bagel or english muffin out of the toaster.  I've had these for a few years, but didn't use them much...mostly cuz I wasn't toasting bagels or english muffins.  Now that I am...well...these tongs are indispensable!

I got these from Pampered Chef...no clue if they still sell them.

They are nicer to use than metal tongs and are the perfect size for my little hands. 

That's all I have for today.  I hope it's warming up where you are...we're supposed to have above freezing temperatures for the next several days.  YAY!

Nothing better than lunch with a good friend! I always buy stuff like those tongs and then I never use them. (Hence many burned fingers)

Sounds like a nice way to spend the day. I never thought of tongs, and wood makes more sense. Nice idea for Bill since he makes muffins.
