A set of kitchen spoons. It was my birthday gift from my boyfriend (my first birthday that we celebrated together). I was so upset (for some odd reason--I don't know what I expected.) However, I am very particular about what I buy people for gifts and I put a lot of time into the process. I thought he had just run out and bought something without putting any effort into it. It turns out he thought he had been especially thoughful--I had mentioned that I needed kitchen utensils while we were in Target a month earlier.
Well, I still have them, and I use them everyday. I guess it wasn't such a bad gift after all. And his gift-selecting skill have improved greatly over the years.
