What's inside?

The other day John came home from practice bearing gifts. Rather, necessities for our apartment provided by his team. He was also carrying this briefcase:




I immediately asked why he was carrying a briefcase. After all, most "ballers" don't carry such things. Backpack or gym bag? Yes. Briefcase? Not so much.

He explained that he didn't know what it was, just that someone from the team management gave it to him. As he handed it off to me, I realized it was rather heavy. Much to my surprise, this is what I found inside: (scroll down.....)












A knife set! There is another layer under this as well that we discovered after I prematurely took the photos. Should I be this excited about a knife set that I am only technically "borrowing" for the next six months? Probably not. I'm just not used to such luxuries, considering I usually make do with a couple of knives from Ikea. That and I've been using a butter knife to cut up veggies for the past week.

John and I both laughed for quite a while! I mean really, I asked for knives... but was an entire set necessary? And, why is it in a briefcase?!?! Oh well, I'll take what I can get!
