Hi! I'm Lucky Plankey, the creator of Lucky Treasures-Creative Thoughts and Designs. I have a "thing" about one-of-a-kind
creations, whether they are physical or virtual. My criteria is that a Lucky Treasure be both pretty and practical.
A Lucky Tale for you:
When my daughter entered high school, we moved to a small town in Pennsylvania. Ann Marie had a new friend come to the door one day and stopped the girl before allowing her to enter the home. She asked, "Can you do two things?"
"Two things?" her new friend inquired.
"Yeah, like sew, dance, sing, paint ...two
things," Ann Marie explained.
The girl thought for a moment and then mentioned two gifts she had.
"OK, " said my daughter. "Now you can come in. My mother doesn't let anything into this house unless it serves two purposes!"
My daughter, Folks, was definitely a one-of-a-kind creation, but she was also right. I never lost the part of me that would
make a play house from a refrigerator box.
On another occassion I wanted to serve soup whose stock was made from the chicken skins that I kept in our freezer once I removed them from the chicken I prepared for meals. We had just moved to our home, and I had no soup bowls. I cut the bottoms of soda bottles and proudly set the little black bowls on the table. As I poured the soup into the bowls they promptly melted, flooding the table and pouring off onto the floor. My son quietly observed, "Well, that one didn't work!"
I hope you will be joining me on this, my latest blogging adventure. Some of my posts here will be from other blogs I have kept, as I pluck what I consider the best from them to share in a new venue. Others will begin with this blog, and possibly find a home elsewhere in time. After all, things ought to serve two puposes!
Lucky
