Typerwriters have long memories

Homage, 1974, modified typewriter by Leopoldo Maier, Hess Winery Gallery
So do gifts.

My first memory of a typewriter.  It was red and flameless.  A Tom Thumb.  A gift from my mother's sister.  One of the most extraordinary gifts I received.  Others, include pencils engraved with my name.  Be aware of the gifts you give; the gifts you receive.

Recently, I was given a wooden spoon.   A treasure.  Treasures can be practical.

How are typewriters and spoons similiar?  They both are vehicles to stir, whether words or soup. Please sit down, a meal has been prepared for you.
