No Work for Tinkers
When I moved out of my parents' house 15 years ago, I was the beneficiary of several hand-me-down household starters. I took my own furniture, bought new plates and glassware, and was given old pots and pans. Among other things. For 15 years, I've continued to use the things that left that house with me and filled my first apartment. Today, in an apartment furnished for my parents within the last year, I cooked eggs. Allow me to share a bit of newfound wisdom. Every 20 years or so, buy new pans. Thank you.

Sadly, I can beat that. At 28 almost 29 years old I am not only still getting hand me downs from Dad, but am closer to the right shape to wear them than I care to admit.
