Isn't She Lovely?

You know that scene in The Karate Kid when Mr. Miyagi presents Daniel with a birthday present - a selection of his old time cars? He looks at Daniel and says, "Choose."

Daniel just stands there in disbelief.

So many colors.
So many styles.
A dream come true.

When my husband and I snuck away together for a couple of days after Christmas, I had my own Daniel moment.

My husband led me by the hand into a store filled with my brand of "cars".

He smiled, and said, "Choose."

I stood there in disbelief.

So many styles.
So many colors.
A dream come true.

I took her for a spin on Sunday. She's everything I thought she'd be.

Trusty.
Beautiful.
(And, heavy as lead.)

The perfect gift for this kitchen-lovin' girl.

You'll be seeing a whole lot of her 'round here.
