More shopping ...

?excitement? today.

Chris and I went out this afternoon (after the Sun went behind some thick clouds) to the Royal Robbins outlet store on Gilman Street in Berkeley, California

We were on a succesful hunt for the Tilley model TH4 hemp hat:

We took along a 20% off coupon I found online. I wasn't sure that it would be accepted at the store but there was no hassle - good customer service prevailed!

After the hat expedition, we traveled a few blocks Southish to the Fourth Street shopping district.

We were lucky in quickly finding a spot to park on Fifth street. We walked thru Restoration Hardware and over to Sur La Table. Chris got a bargain on a Le Creuset 7¼ quart, Round French Oven:

We also bought a nice knife block out of bamboo and a two-piece set of Wusthof Classic knives:

Leaving the shopping behind (thankfully, finally) we then went a few more blocks Southish again and stopped by at James and Danielle Simmons house on Allston Way and had a nice visit with them and their boys, Gabe and Zack.

We had a nice dinner (as usual, as always) at Shen Hua and then went home.

You call that a knife. Back in my day we called little things like that toothpicks.
