Ah, diggin’ to Hell with a spoon. The first goal I remember setting. It combined two of my primary interests as a 5 year old: small objects and the concept of sin.
There was also an air of frivolity that must have appealed to me (💅). Like, I knew where we kept the shovels, but a shovel seemed obvious, pedestrian. A hellspoon presented a certain je ne sais quoi, a stylish yet self-sacrificing way to meet the Devil. In the end, I never broke any ground on account of “spoons belonging inside,” but the allure persists.

Ugh. No. Jester-lookin-ass handle. Raisin-headed loon. Look, I’m sure you’re great, don’t let this get you down. Truly awful handfeel. Mud caking through the cutouts. Sorry this happened.
