Orn desh, dee born desh, de umn bork! bork! bork!

I picked up my Lay-by today from The General Trader, my favourite kitchen supplies store.

Well, half of it.

The other half has been delayed on the Sydney docks at Customs after the recent implementation of their new tracking system didn't work so well.

That was also after the first shipment had been diagnosed as faulty and had been returned to the manufacturer.

So I only have my new Scanpan ceramic titanium frying pans. (We were getting a little worried about the old Teflon coated ones as the Teflon was starting to come off and, as it is carcinogenic, who wants to eat Teflon?)

When the other bits arrive I can bid goodbye to my K-Mart saucepan set and use new ones where the handles are bolted on and won't come loose or undone as they age. It's probably time that I graduated to a professional set and I'm looking forward to using them.

I also got a pretty good deal as I happened to be served in the store by the woman who helped Logan and I put together our Wedding Registry. The frying pans were on special and she told us that there was a special pack that was coming that combined three saucepans at a reduced price, so I preordered, and then because she sees me in the store buying the odd thing every so often (and she likes me), she gave me 15% off as well!

I feel special.
