(non-human)

My cat. He's adorable, easy going, loving, faithful & playful.
My most treasured possession is my either my piano or ipod.

OK, aside from pets who really are as important as humans,

what THINGS!

Our home ~

We built her with our own hands and created a magical family life inside her

Our wedding bands ~

That's really hard for me to answer.

I guess my cooking utensils.

you have fancy ones?

I'm thinking about those scanpans

my electronic Japanese-English dictionary.

ZombieKitten said:

Not at all.

I covet all kinds of fancy kitchen things, but all my stuff is really middle of the road, normal stuff. I got my first crock pot, food processor and cast iron skillet in the last year and I feel like Julia fuckin' Child.

I just chose my cooking tools because it's what brings me the most joy as far as material possessions. I don't get attached to things, I know that sounds pretentious but it's actually not always a good thing. It means I don't always take very good care of my things. I love cooking and feeding the people I love, so my pots and pans and oven and knives are precious to me.

two things...

a cookie jar my (maternal) grandmother gave me...I never knew her, she passed when I was 1...

a set of authentic, handmade Russian nesting dolls that my (paternal) grandmother gave me when I was a teenager...we had a very rocky relationship, one that was never patched before she passed...

I've got to the age and stage that I'm thinking of getting the quality tools, since I'm putting the time in the kitchen.

ZombieKitten said:

Yeah, it's definitely something I plan on investing in.

I inherited a great set of Calphalon pans when I moved in with Chris; before I'd been using a ragtag bunch of secondhand aluminum crap. And this past Christmas he bought me a set of Global knives, which have changed my life in the kitchen more than anything else to date.

I need more quality baking pans: loaf pans, muffin tins, cake pans, baking sheets, etc. I baked bread last night but had to do the loaves one at a time in my one loaf pan. And different sizes of cast iron pans, and a grill pan. And a pastry cutter. Some ramekins would be nice, and a mallet/tenderizer is definitely needed. I've been pounding chicken breasts with my fists.

My stuffed animal

I hear you! I might get a skillet tomorrow!

I can't ay I have a possession that's all that precious to me.
It was probably my clothes once upon a time, but I wouldn't say that so much now.

That's beautiful ~

my music, computer, and car

all are replaceable, but they are the things I use the most, and have put the most money towards. I don't have any priceless jewelry or family heirlooms or anything

ZombieKitten said:

What are yours ?

my laptop and zune, I want a pet..so when I get a dog or cat...it would be them.

my house and my family albums are the two things i value most, and i really really hate the thought of ever losing them.

The vhs videos we made when my children were babies... Makes me cry when i watch them so i dont get them out very often but they would be the first thing i ran for in a fire! That and my diamond earrings...

Photos of me and my family, my favorite bras/panties and perfume, because they are comfy, pretty and I feel better when I wear them.

A girl's gotta love lace that doesn't make her ass itch.

kitty!

but as far as this question goes my most precious possessions is my ipod my stuffed animal and pasta

whistle said:

They are beautiful, love their eyes...Siamese cats?

My record collection

My music collection. Who can live without music?

My laptop. I spend most of my time on the computer. If I didn't have one, then life would be even more boring.

My musical instruments. I suck at every one of them but it's still fun to fuck around with them

My books

My magazines. It sounds a bit creepy but looking at all those pictures and clothes always puts me in an ota-ass good mood.

My bed

That's all, I think.

My photo albums and cd collection. My sexy shoes and jewelry. If my house were on fire I'd grab as many photo albums that I could.

a few pieces of rare decorative arts/furniture

the only things that really come to mind as "precious" are the photographs - could never replace those.

just about everything else - replaceable. I think it's important not to let your stuff own you.

My saxophone

My music collection

My stereo separates

everything else I could live without
