Blue Balloon and a Chef’s Knife

Last year Adam told his mother that he wanted to have a big balloon for his birthday.  This year his mother remembered.

Adam and his big balloon

He asked for a Chef’s knife for his birthday.

I noticed that someone also got him a Gordon Ramsay Cookbook.  We paged through it…he said “We don’t have very many of the ingredients on hand.”  I said “Put them on your Mom’s grocery list.”

Can this young man be thinking of a career in the Food Industry?  Maybe..time will tell.  He still has time to figure it out.  He just began his Junior year in High School.

  2. My husband bought a knife like that. I'm a little afraid of it, it's so sharp. :-)

  3. That's a really good gift! A sharp knife is the best. I respect mine that I bought about 10-15 years ago.

  5. They say you are less likely to cut yourself with a sharp knife. All I can say is that when you do, the cut may be mighty deep. Looks like a good birthday for Adam!

  12. Oh, a big balloon! And the chef's knife was even better. Regardless of career choices and all that, he will learn a lot and enjoy himself. :)

  17. Now that IS a big balloon! I have a couple of those knives and they are the bees knees. I love chopping or cutting anything with them. I don't like that chef Ramsey...I think he's the one that has a temper and yells all the time but I could be wrong. Glad he got what he wanted...that's always nice.
