I was trying to decide if I needed a new sharpener or new pencils. I asked some friends and they recommended Ticonderoga pencils. I checked out Amazon and found Mirado Black Warriors
Anyway, I get sidetracked easily. I love them! And isn't it more fun to write with a "Warrior" than a pencil? Just like it's more fun to eat "run-fast-asparagus" and "get-strong-muscles-steak". Not only do they come pre-sharpened, but when I test-sharpened them they stayed centered and write smoothe! No more half-wood covered pencils! Isn't it sad that even little things like pencils just aren't made the way they used to? The bulk box of pencils I bought last fall are just a bunch of junk. Seems like I have to research and review everything anymore, otherwise I end spending good money on items that just end up in the trash - like these bulk pencils.
Oh my gosh. I am so buying some of those pencils! Uneven sharpening is something that's irritated me since, oh, second grade. (Sharpen sharpen sharpen, check the point, sharpen sharpen sharpen sharpen, check again, sharpen sharpen sharpen... grumble grumble, I give up.)
