Little Things

It's weird how happy some stupid little thing can make you. For instance, this adorable little pewter coffee scoop. I got it last fall on my annual fall weekend trip to my favourite Nova Scotia porn town, Mahone Bay. It came from the pewter-porn- shop Amos Pewter. Every morning when I use it to scoop coffee grounds I marvel at it's clever fusion of adorable-ness and functionality. Using it instead of an ordinary spoon makes the act of making coffee a little more fun. Also, whenever I see it, I get a pleasant burst of happy feelings remembering what a good trip it was. I balked at paying $21 for it at the time, but couldn't resist it. Now I see that it was well worth it.
