re*purpose

He was getting quite weary, just sitting there in the antique cabinet, waiting for a "fancy" dinner, or Thanksgiving, or Christmas. Imagine his joy when she lifted him out of his dark hiding place, to be in a light filled small room, with a fresh breeze playing with the white lace curtains. Here he sits, for now, perched on a friend from the closet (sorry, I can't help standing on you, she put me here!)

Filled with French Bee Soaps, ready for someone to choose one to wash with. Oh joy! No more gravy for him, for now, atleast.
