The first thing was a spatula. I selected a piece of applewood... which (as it turned out) didn't want to become a spatula and moreover it decided to annoy me by all possible means. Well, in the end I won.
The second commission was literally: I want something like this spoon, but bigger, to scoop a huge mouthful of halušky! :)
The dry plumwood was hard as nails, but the work definitely paid off... I don't know if I've ever liked the finished spoon as much as this one.
The last commission still remains: to carve two identical spoons for a married couple. So I have to search my wood pile and find two pieces of wood, at least distantly similar... That won't be easy!
