Special Spoon

Zach's grandfather, Ken, is more than your typical craftsman.  He has been known to construct a building or two from scratch.  A regular do it yourself kind of guy.  In his spare time he makes belt buckles, jewelry, tools, and more. 

I have been admiring his handiwork for years particularly at Zach's parents house in one of Ken's hand crafted "tea spoons".  A spoon with a lid that has holes in the top and bottom for steeping tea.  To my surprise yesterday afternoon I received a package with my very own teaspoon made of copper by grandpa Ken.  I was thrilled!  

I know he put a lot of time into making this and I plan to treasure it for even longer :)
