Like Father Like Daughter

No, I am not confused. I am perfectly aware of the old saying "like mother like daughter" and "like father like son", but in my case it is appropriate to combine them both. I know that my creativity stems from a direct descent from my father's half of my DNA. Though I love my mom very much, my dad has always been the creative and artistic one in the family (besides myself of course). Whether it be woodworking, welding and even painting, he has never stopped being creative. Lately, his newest medium has been working with antlers. So naturally when I saw a knife carving set in the Horchow magazine, which was VERY pricey by the way, I immediately sent dear old daddy the photo. I believe it was only about three or four weeks and Ding...Dong a package came UPS from home. Here is what was inside:

I was not expecting to have such a special case in which to keep them stored. That turned out to be a very good thing, because I think the knife is very sharp!


L*O*V*E IT!!! With an eye for detail, Daddy even added the Texas seal in the handles. Nice touch! Now I am ready to carve the Thanksgiving turkey or the Christmas ham or........Hmmm ..maybe...the tofu? Either way, it looks wonderful and I will cherish it always. If you are interested in purchasing a similar knife set or placing a special order contact me via: www.elizabelles@yahoo.com and I will pass it along to my father.
