Thank you!!

Dear Canta -

Thank you so much for the wonderful chopsticks. My mom says that someone named Emily Post (is she a friend of yours?) would freak out if she knew I was emailing you my thank you note, but I insisted because how else were you supposed to see them in action? I got to use them tonight for dinner. I live in Vietnam and everyone here uses chopsticks, so this is a perfect way for me to learn!!
Here I am trying them out.....
See my concentration.....
So close and yet so far....this is really hard work!!
Thankfully, my Dad stepped in and offered some help...he is a pro at chopsticks! Mom doesn't know how to use them, but would I share my new chopsticks? NO WAY! I am keeping your gift all to myself!!
Noodles and your gift make me SUPER happy. Thanks again for thinking of me. Amelia is still way too little to use hers, so I will hold on to them until she is ready to learn the ropes.
Big hugs from Saigon, xo, Allison

  2. Awesome. Maybe she can show A1 some hashi tricks when she sees him next -- he got the hang of it in Japan, but I bet he's forgotten again. :)

  3. Way to go Allison. Chop sticks are hard and I definitely need to get some of these awesome sticks for my kids and ME!
