Ahh-- I loved him from the minute he said he wanted to live in the Soviet Union where there was only one brand of everything offered. A man after my own indecisive heart. That same thought has often occurred to me in stores. I have trouble choosing even from a field of one. I start thinking, "but do I really need this at all?"

I never mentioned that not only was the Calphalon I purchased on sale at Tuesday Morning, it was the ONLY brand offered. And there was only ONE kind of that brand, AND there was only one box of that kind of that brand.
And I still went back three times.

Dan went to use it this weekend and ended up mad at me because I hovered "threateningly" and kept telling him how to talk to the pan. Then he put it back in the beautiful clean cabinet with the handle facing the Wrong Way. He told me to get the old stuff out again or go for therapy.

I am working my way now through the other cabinets, because once I cleaned the cabinet for the Calphalon, all the other dishes started complaining that their homes hadn't been cleaned in eight years, and they wanted new contact paper too. There is nothing more unpleasant than Tupperware throwing tantrums. It just keeps burping at you.

I also have a new theory about Blue Flowered Corningware multiplying in the dark and creating very small plastic containers that will hold things about the size of a grape.
