Anna and I have started to go through the content's of our Father's house. It is not an easy task. One of the nice parts is finding unexcepted things that have strong emotional resonance. This whisk is one of them. We both remember our Mother using it 35 years ago and more. Of course there are better ways to whisk things nowadays and the whisk itself is so tempremental that it takes a persuasive hand to get it work properly - slow and steady - but of course that isn't the point. For a good few minutes we were memorized by it and the memories it stirred in us.
