From each trip to another city or country, we all bring various souvenirs that remind us of this trip. In addition, each of us in life happen different holidays and we give gifts to our loved ones and friends. If you occasionally visit flea markets, then you probably do not return home empty-handed. Ordinary signs of attention to a loved one are also often expressed in the form of a simple present. All this, taken together, is then placed on any horizontal surface of your apartment. Let's say my wife is crazy about dolls. So any problem in our relationship I can reduce to zero by giving her something from this set.
Or from this. But here these English teapots, which I myself like. By the way, settling these objects of joy with you, inevitably leads to the purchase of new shelves. Or, on some of the weekends, you yourself have to cut and plan, creating apartment comfort with your own hands.
Looking at all this junk, you are especially glad to remember the purchase of them when the time of cleaning comes. Every time at such moments there is an idea to throw out half of this rubbish. In fact, nothing but inconvenience, these objects do not carry anything. They cling to you, fall and break, which often causes additional tension in relationships, and out of the blue. For example, I cannot convince my wife that all these dryuch things love to fall and break on their own when I didn’t even touch them. "It fell by itself" - do you know such a phrase? Or - "You have to walk calmly, not stomp your feet here .."
But without these items can not do. They delight the eye and create a sweet atmosphere. Without them, any shelf turns into a regular dust collector.
But there are still favorite souvenirs, such as grandmother's cups, my mother's vases or our own historical and fateful acquisitions.
These we have here is this carousel. By the way, it never occurred to you that if women like static objects, pleasing the eye with beauty in their immobility, then men are more touched by objects that perform a certain reciprocating or rotating movement, the appearance of which does not matter much ...
This is my first significant gift to my wife. More precisely - at that time we were in the status of the bride and groom. All sorts of idiotic advances were not needed, we had known each other for more than twenty years. She flew to me in Israel, and I began to acquaint her with the country of residence. The first trip was Caesarea - the capital of the Roman authorities in the territory of Judea.
There is something to see, I highly recommend. Among other things, take a chance to visit the souvenir shops, which are there Nemer. Let me remind you that Caesarea is the most expensive place in Israel, where everything is not cheap anyway. Judging by the prices, these shops serve as boutiques. All these products are sold only there and are bought up by rich tourists who do not know where to spend their millions. This is the nuance I did not take into account.
At first, my wife stared at this carousel. The seller immediately took it off the shelf and unwound it, after which I also expressed my admiration ... A ceramic stand with smalt and a roundabout made from porcelain mushrooms. All painted words, wishes. Here, both love and happiness with good luck ... You will unwind and expect that you will fall on this day.
The sellers here are not the usual hired, but talented managers who study your reaction, and we had it too stormy. After admiring smiles there was a question of price. The manager saw that my wife does not speak Hebrew, so he decided to communicate with her. He called a price that only Arab sheikhs easily pay. While I was silent, he again turned to my wife, duplicating the amount in English. For such a price, it was possible to rent a room at a local hotel for a day, even though it was Caesarea.
This dude did not eat the master's bread for nothing, and he immediately assessed the situation. If I were alone, in two minutes I would have explained to him on my fingers that I was a local builder, and not a flying banker. But bargaining was clearly not appropriate. Yes, and liked the thing, to be honest ...
Now this spinning garbage takes its place on one of our shelves. This is the only thing that makes me not mumble while rubbing dust. We often twist it and its movement causes us warm feelings and memories that we had sandwiches with coke on that day, and not seafood dishes with branded beer, as planned …
Thanks for reading and support!
Good luck
