When my GrandDad passed away we went to his house to gather as many memories as we could. Things that meant something to each of us. I grabbed weird stuff...a rosary, a few pair of his funky golf socks (Crazy Argyle), a few putters, an old miter box (that he made) and my MomMom's rolling pin. For years that rolling pin bounced around my kitchen. It had no real purpose...just a reminder that she used it to roll out TONS of raviolis for the family.
Recently my great friend Patti (HI Patti!!) visited from KY and we worked on a fun kitchen project. A new floor from Ikea. More on that in a future post, but what we also did was make a really cool curtain rod (for lack of a better word) out of MomMom's rolling pin.
Cute huh? I love this kind of stuff...it makes me smile when I see it and it has a purpose again. Smiles.
