Yeah, that's silly Now if you were talking about "the pot" or "the knife",
it would make a lot of sense. I have "the pot", my sister has "the knife",
we both have some good memories of our grandmother's cooking. When my wife
and I are gone, my daughter wants "the pot", a Club Aluminum Dutch oven, at
least 80 or 90 years old.
