late to the party...

hey girls, busy day and probably again tomorrow, but I should have more time to hang here later this week :)

- I ordered the Hammer Time tshirt!  I'll definitely PIP H wearing it for you after Christmas.

 - question: where can I get my knives sharpened?  We just got them from Macys so I have no idea what to do, but they SUCK right now.  Also, do you think those blocks that 'mold' to them are better for holding them?

- almost done with my Elf's present and will have H mail it off this week!

    Yup!
  • One tip... sharp knives should never be washed in the dishwasher, in general this includes steak knives. Heat also makes them dull faster!

    thanks!  I definitely don't put them in the dishwasher, but mainly because I would always accidentally cut myself grabbing things out, lol.  now I have another reason :)

  • If you use a wooden block to hold your knives, be sure to put them in UPSIDE DOWN so that the sharp part is UP. Otherwise, you will be cutting in to the wood each time you pull out or put away a knife and it also dulls them faster.

    yeah... this just crossed my mind the other day :-/ lol  Do you know if those kind where the knives can go anywhere are any better for the blades?
