Uh, I'm inspired! I've been inspired. Just haven't done much about it. I think the set looks great, and eating with silverware sounds like fun, except when you have to wash them over and over so you can use them the next time.
And doesn't your wife get to use the new ones? Or does she not really want to. And do your buddies all have stackitus too? Would they even notice that the silverware they're using is 'prettier"?
This is a serious unveiling of the last LCS run you're doing here. I don't blame you. You've got to make these things last as long as you can. :)
I'm glad you're inspired, @glenalbrethsen! Sometimes there's a delay between inspiration and action. That's ok. It means it's just going to percolate in there until it's ready.
It's a lot of fun to eat with them. They're heavier than normal flatware and I like that. I feel like I'm actually holding something substantial, and not just because of the weight. They're not difficult to clean. You can just give them a quick clean with a sponge and then rinse with hot water. They're anti-microbial, so they're better to eat with than flatware.
My wife doesn't really care about using silverware. I think it's just me. She hasn't quite caught the silver bug, but that's ok. She still likes that I like it and she supports my desire to get more. I don't think any of my buddies have stakitus. It's sad. I wish I could get some of them hooked. I have been giving out silver american eagles for a while as presents, and I'm hoping that one day it will click for people that this stuff is awesome. Until then, I just keep stacking on my own. I don't know that the guys would notice the silverware is pretty. They do have a nice flower pattern though, so they very well could notice.
I only have so much cash available, so I have to spread it out when I finally get to acquire some new stuff. One day I'm going to have packages arriving every day, but until then, this is how we roll. :)
It's nice having something to post about every day. I don't have to come up with a topic, I already know. I just have to figure out which one I will write about.
