Is it just me or are there other people out there who love shopping for kitchen and dining products? I know a lot of people who love shopping for clothes. But how about for their kitchen? Each time I walk into a utensils store the gloss on the plates, the shine on the spoons, the curve on the bowl just amaze me. I just feel like buying them all. Sometimes I even daydream of owning a store myself so that I can keep looking at them. Anytime I go to Shoppers Stop or Lifestyle, I just directly walk into the home and kitchen section just to look at them. My poor husband too walks with me from counter to counter. I’m sure he still wonders why I do that. I’d love to answer him if I knew the answer. But alas!!
Ajay (my husband) keeps telling me, buy this buy that; but what he doesn’t know is it’s not about buying them. After walking around for one whole hour, I end up buying one coffee mug or two glasses. It’s probably the lights that fall directly on them, that make each glass look so angelic. A simple ‘Treo’ wine goblet appears like ‘The Holy Grail’ to me. Ajay notices the shine in my eyes when I look at each of it and ends up loading our cart with each of the item that made my eyes stay open. But little does he know, it’s not about loading the cart, but admiring it on the counter. Of course how would he understand when I point on a simple whisk and say, ‘oh…look look, a whisk!!!’ and as I we get closer I start screaming out of excitement and say, ‘ oh look, the even have it in every color!!!’ But I guess, he’d understand me because as each time we pass though the electronics section, he yells with a thrilling voice, ‘oh look, a USB cable!’.
