+# Pethau
+
+A bunch of code that we find useful to share amongst our projects.
+
+This is the place that code lives when it doesn't have a larger purpose; in
+less awesome teams this would be the "utility" package.
+
+Pethau is Welsh for "things," which I think captures the general purpose
+nature of this gem nicely.
+
+
+## Things
+
+### initialize\_with
+
+A lot of my classes use the following initializer pattern:
+
+    class Foo
+      attr_accessor :bar
+      private :bar=, :bar
+      attr_accessor :baz
+      private :baz=, :baz
+
+      def initialize bar, baz
+	self.bar = bar
+	self.baz = baz
+      end
+    end
+
+I've been doing this for a while now, and I believe it's established itself as
+enough of a pattern that I want to pull out the implementation and DRY it up:
+
+    class Foo
+      include Pethau::InitializeWith
+      initialize_with :foo, :bar
+    end
+
+ince this is used in a lot of places in my projects I tend to include it in
+`Object` but I didn't want to make that decision for you.
