Day 240

Here's another one...a lame photo post.  Today's Capture Your 365 Inspiration word was...Rusty.

This is an old ice cream scoop that belonged to my grandmother.  For some reason, when she moved out of her home and in with my parents, the family took items that they wanted, needed, or that somehow had meaning for them.  I ended up with her rolling pin, which had some significance...and this ice cream scoop, which had none, other than I did not own one at the time.

That was over 15 years ago, and I still have the ice cream scoop.  Truth is I rarely use it...it is a little rusty, and leaves black marks everywhere.  But I hang on to it nonetheless.  I imagine I'll never be able to let go of it.  Because this simple little rusty scoop that once had no significance, now does.
