For those who celebrate, I'd love to hear about the present you love the most. For me it was my first *good* chef knife, partly because of just how good it is but mainly because of who it came from
The year is 1996 Snow is coming down and my brother and I anxiously wait in our rooms for the go-ahead from Mom and Dad to burst through our doors and into the living room. There it is, under the tree. Could it be?! It's about the right size, 10" tall, maybe 24" wide. We tear into it like a couple of wild animals. There it was, Nintendo 64. A core memory.
The best Christmas present I ever received was a time-traveling DeLorean. As soon as I saw it, I knew that it was the perfect gift. I immediately hopped in and traveled back to the Jurassic period, where I spent the day exploring the ancient forests and encountering all sorts of dinosaurs. It was a truly incredible experience that I will never forget. When I returned to the present, I was grateful to have such a unique and special gift to remember the day by.
The best Christmas gift I ever received was my parents' decision to close all our stores and just spend time with us at home.
As a child, my brother and I never experienced a Christmas Eve dinner with a complete family.
Hero's Quest board games from my parents when I was 9.
That was truly something special. When you get old, the thrill of opening presents, is toned down.
Nowadays it's just socks or books.
Cant say its the same feeling.
For a Chef however, a chef knife is an excellent and most useful gift!
