Long term readers will know that we’re finishing off the first stage of this new (to us) house. We’ve finally got the new kitchen going in and that’s the last part of it: except for the furnishings. We’ve got a new wood burner going in so I’m quite taken with the idea of this blomus stainless steel fireplace set. Have to see what the wife thinks about that.

She’ll be a lot more interested in this blomus stainless steel teaset: yes, we are still entirely archaic in our sexual division of labor here.

In fact, given that division of labor I might actually want to get this blomus stainless steel firepit as one of the boy’s toys for out back. Although, to be honest, I’m not sure I’ll be allowed it: our sexual division of labor is such that I still don’t get to buy my own toys: tasks may be assigned, but all the money is "ours".
