                  1. So do y’all remember buritica’s intense kitchen tour? I have a follow up story... instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE4MTE3MTg5MzU4MTA3Mzkw?igshid=hwsmv5xjxrfs&story_media_id=2310641818320323814

                  Buried deep in there is a comment about a missing paring knife. I was like, Aha! The perfect new job gift. I will replace it. The thing is, I know nothing about kitchen implements. I pinged an expert (hi Cathmo!) and she identified the knife. So far so good.

                Unfortunately, William Sonoma blocks all traffic from Europe (hi, jerks) But eventually with a bit of help from _another_ friend, & having learned they also block European credit cards (whyyyyyy) we found the same knife on amazon. I ordered it. There was a two week wait. AGONY.

              I am impatient. I tell a couple of friends what I have done. I’m like, “what if someone else has the same idea and gets there first?” They say, “Cate, no one else is going to do this.” Finally, it arrives. I wait for a happy text, but nothing arrives 😢

            Eventually I text being like… “heyyyyyy did a package arrive maybe nbd” and well... JP does not seem to prioritize presents to the level I would hope. I message almost daily asking if he has found it. Finally the package room has been searched, records checked. It is not there.

          A setback. I am still Committed to this gift. I message support, get a refund, and... the original knife is gone. Do I get a larger one? Smaller one? The first package had a gift message. This time there’s no option so it will just be a knife. At least he will know it’s from me.

      My favourite bit is that he thought he could have accidentally ordered two knives but not three 😆
