Treasure Box... The Rest of the Story

Look to your right. Over there. Do you see it?

That's my treasure-box; my place to keep fun and beautiful and charming and humorous things, in case you didn't know.

You know, the Whose-its button. There are magical Japanese Gardens hiding inside, and colorful kites, and perhaps some tidepools...oh, and some breathtaking sights!

Grandma always had a treasure box for us, and when it was cloudy or too windy to play outside, she quietly slipped a cigar box from high in the closet. Inside were wonderful things. A tiny doll, a wooden nickel, a baby bracelet made out of blue and white beads, costume jewelry, a tiny glass bottle, and other treasures that she had collected over the years. When she asked her grandchildren what they wanted before she died, they all wanted the same thing. She somehow mustered up enough boxes for everyone, and filled them with tiny treasures. She wanted everyone to have a treasure of their own.

She shared her treasures with me, and now I share these treasures with you! Perhaps you will find something there that you like, but if not, there is always much more to come.

WARNING: Proceed at your own risk. Blog entries are full of happy and magical things. Feelings of joy and illumination are imminent. May result in edges of mouth turning upward. All Whose-its photos taken by yours truly unless otherwise indicated.
