Treasure


Some treasure I've collected ... Some giant Brass keys and doilies from ebay, A little clementine that I have had for 2 years - it has no holes or insides is as light as a feather and I think it's magic, two bunnies... one rescued from a dusty charity shop and one a gift from David, two jars little and large... one from Dom with a bunny spirit inside and one from Alicia wich has a fairy in which she made herself with her hands, There are two things from my Nan... a chalkboard on which she drew a rose when I was 8 and a stone she found in a cave she visited with my Grandad before I was born, there's an old tin there too - I found her at a jumble sale and I love her - she is full of more treasures - but they are secrets ... shhhh ....

I went to see Nan and Grandad today, she gave me another little treasure to add to my collection - a little shiney brooch... and Grandad showed me a big old case and told me it belonged to his Dad when he was in the army... it has treasures inside too. Great Grandad changed his birthday from February 20th to February 22nd so he could have it on the same day as me... Grandad was cooking when he was telling me - I like the way he says marrionating instead of marinating :)
