For the Cook That Has Everything

I had the Food Network on earlier as background noise. There was some sort of story about pepper grinders, and they were talking about designers that worked for the company. One of the guys works with a lathe, another works with computers, and someone else does something completely different.

I thought they were talking about designing what the pepper looks like after it's ground. Like you could grind it out onto your salad and it would come out at little stars or hearts or flowers or something.

It wasn't until they showed line drawings of actual pepper grinders I realized they were discussing the design of the grinder and not the grind.

But how cool would it be to have little fancy-shaped pepper?

Now there is an idea! You could have a holiday-themed grind - shamrocks, easter eggs, etc.!

Hmm .... are you sure the little flakes wouldn't be too small to discern their shape? I'd think if they were large enough to see, they'd be too big for good eating.
