Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now, do you suppose this is an ice cream spoon, the long-handled sort you eat with, as opposed to this sort which is a server which seems to be the most frequent result of my search?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm wearing two shirts and two sweatshirts. Still cold. (I have a space heater at my desk but I've been spending most of my time in the server room.)

The second one should be called a scoop, ita.

ita, this [link] certainly makes it look like it is the eating-with kind, not the serving kind. Is 6.7" particularly long-handled?

weatherbug says it's 3.2 degrees.

It's the .2 that gets me.

So far this morning I have managed to smash my hand into my desk (though I think the cold dulled the pain) and set off some kind of bizarre IE error which resulted in IE opening multiple tabs FOREVER.

I don't think it's a virus, and I've checked the computer, but it was bizarre. I hope I didn't just accidentally create Skynet.

Sharper Image files for bankruptcy

They've always bugged me. The few things they have that I've been interested in have always seemed poorly constructed.

Oh, aye, I don't disagree. But look at these search results. When they're not handing back the whole set of cutlery, it seems to be serving ware.

I guess 6.7" is long. I'm also finding tall drink spoons which might also serve. Basically I want to be able to get the last bits of apple sauce out of the jar without getting my hands dirty. 6.7" seems longer than my soup spoons, which is a start.
