So thank you, I do not think it was charisma I think it was the genuine look of shock on my face that I could be so stupid as to bring a "weapon" through Homeland Security surrounded by armed guards. My mind was somewhere else when I was packing. So my knife..my beautiful Shun Santuko knife that I worked with every day for the last year, was going to either be confiscated or..and here is the real miracle..they gave me a chance to go check my carry on.

Really they should have just taken the knife, but I must have looked so shocked, sad..I dont know I was probably pouting, had puppy dog eyes..! I've been told that if I pout I can get anything out of anyone, and seriously I do it and I don't even know I am doing it.

God I cant believe I just admitted that in a public forum.

*so embarrassed*

Well those big bruiser, Homeland Security guards were so concerned about my reaction to not being able to take my knife once they realized that I was a Chef and not a terrorist..that they really did try hard to help me. In the end it was too late to check a 2nd bag and I had to just give the knife away. Its so stupid but I was so upset. Then I stopped to think of all of the nice things that people have done for me in my lifetime and I gave it to a nice lady who worked for the airlines who said she would give it to her son in law who was just learning to cook and did not own one good knife.

Suppose that was paying it forward in some way.

*shrugs*

It was not a good week. Or month. One loss after another.

Aww sweets.

*hugs*

I hope the guy who ended up with your knife treats it well and appreciates it.

Now I'm trying to imagine you with the pouting and the puppy dog eyes.
No, stop it with the puppy dog eyes! *chortle*
Stop it, I said!

I have favourite knives. One of them is a purple ScanPan. Kris has a habit of putting it back in its sheath the wrong way round. I have no idea why his brain thinks it goes in that way.

Actually another one of my very favourites is a smallish cheap no-name one that just says "stainless" and "made in Japan". It sharpens up beautifully. I think I stole it from my mother.

Please pass some my way, I just engaged in publicly humiliating myself with my knife story *smirk*.

On another note..I love Portugese wines..especially a good Port.

Mmmmm...velvety, silky, full of fruit that explodes on the tongue...raspberry, cherry, plum...I especially like the play between a fine chocolate that is seductively rich and a warm port. An intoxicating combination.

OMG I already humiliated myself with that story and you are laughing at me too!

*whimpers*

Trust me, no one, but a select few..and no one at this point in my life, gets to see either the pout or the puppy dog eyes, its a natural side effect of huge fricking disappointment like losing my favorite knife that I make a living with.

*sigh*

Ursy you stole a knife from your Mother?

Why do you do these things? Was she going to take it through security at the airport? Gee I kinda wish someone that I loved would have stolen my knife. lol

Give her a beer and let's see what happens!

Don't whimper, I'm not laughing at you & you didn't humiliate yourself. You opened up and showed a vulnerable part of yourself. The experience may have been embarrassing but you have comfort here, with us.

Oh trust me I have humiliated myself in stories to Ursy for years. She has been one of my go to friends when I am feeling beaten down by the world.

Really I would never publicly admit to such a thing as pouting. So in a way, this truly cracks me up. It is a behavior unbecoming of a Daddy and a Sir, but thank you, very kindly for your support of my revealing my inner boy. *grin*

Well, I guess then I can admit that I am not aware of what Daddy/Sir behavior consists of. I have never been exposed to that type of dynamic *blushes* As long as it is healthy behavior, I see no harm in anything at all - inner child or otherwise.

Now, see, there is no set behaviour for a Daddy or Sir, each one is different; as they are also different with each girl.

Healthy? Healthy as carrots I'd say!

Aww love.
I can't laugh at you when you whimper *squishes*

Yes, I've stolen a few random things from my darling wonderful Mum.
I think it was that "leaving home for the first time and taking a bit of it with you" kind of thing. I went to Uni miles away from home, and if I coudn't take her back to college with me, I wanted to take "bits of her". <3

I wonder what bits of "home" Bek will steal from me one day.

I iz quite kittun like but not many people really get to see what I mean. I canz be trusted wif beer!!!! It's BEER I can't wastes that!!! Thankz for tha soup though . In all fairness I am far more liklely to spill hot sauce on myselfz. It's a natural talent. Why doez shirts not haz hot sauce resistance? Wrinkle resistance doez no good to me. I never learnz that white shirts attract stainz either so I try to not wear white. I still spill thingz
