A year ago, in late January, I wandered into a Williams-Sonoma and at
the back of the store there was a wire rack with lots of sale items.
One of those was a peppermill, Sheldon-style, brass, marked down from
~$79 to $29. I thought for about a minute then grabbed it and headed
for the counter. Actually there were two of them and I'm really sorry I
didn't get the second one. It would have made a very nice gift.
