Build with Clay #114: Spork
A bi-weekly newsletter sparking personal growth
Hi, reader!
Today’s trivia: List the 7 continents from largest to smallest (by land mass).
With that, welcome to the 114th newsletter! This one is all about Sporks.
A moment.
Last year, I ordered my favorite dessert from a restaurant: sticky toffee pudding. (If you ever find yourself in Beaufort, NC - do yourself a favor and go to City Kitchen).
A few minutes later, the shallow bowls (yes, I ordered 2) filled with sticky toffee pudding deliciousness were set in front of me.
To the right of the bowls, the waitress set down a napkin and a utensil.
The utensil was none other than a silver spork!
It was in this moment that my life changed forever.
A thought.
Disclaimer: While it may seem so, I do not get paid to sell sporks.
I am betting that if you open your silverware drawer that there’s not a single spork.
Well, my reader, I am here to change that!
I simply want you to spend the best $10 you will all year.
I spent the $10 last year and now 4 out of every 6 meals I eat at home are with a spork.
No more battling for the last of my rice on my plate!
No more food falling off my fork as it’s traveling to my mouth!
No more remnants of cake being left stuck to the plate!
The spork has made my life better!
And it’s not just me!
When I ask my kids, “what utensil do you want for dinner?” - they almost always say spork.
Even my wife, who was initially skeptical, finds herself using a spork for at least half her dinners!
The spork is undoubtably the greatest, most under appreciated, most underutilized and most practical utensil of all.
What’s stopping you from changing your life today?
