| I've only recently discovered the spoon |

Edited on Sat Sep-10-11 01:47 PM by UTUSN
Most of my many years I used spoons only for soup and ice cream. In the past year it has dawned on me that forks are for piercing, spearing, skewering and that all manner of foods are easier dealt with by scooping with a spoon: Salads, solids that have already been cut up, eggs, whatever.
Be kind: Stay near the "late bloomer" characterizations rather than some others.

| 13. Back in the days when English was a classy language, that was a runcible spoon. |

In these degenerate latter days it's a spork. Sign of the apocalypse.
