I get the treasure!

My late post : Time of Eid, I am going home to family in Blora, Central Java. In addition to rarely meeting with my blora fam's, Eid this year is slightly different. Besides quota decreases of the money, hahaha some of my brothers said that I was getting fatter (extreme sentence that I wait on every person who rarely meet with me) and the other difference is, I get the treasure!

I get the treasure was not bar of gold or chunk of jewelry. That black box is makeup box! I was very pleased when grandma took me to a seedy warehouse in one of the rooms at the back of the house and show it to me. Yap! I'll tell you a little, in ancient times Muahaha, my grandmother was a 'dukun manten' (that is if Java people said ). 'dukun manten' or commonly known as bridal makeup is my grandmother's job when she was young, although the main grandmother's job was a teacher, but most of the time spent to be a bridal makeup artist in her village. I am very proud of my grandmother, finally my grandmother put an end to her job and idle her makeup box in the shed. Now, I hope this makeup box fell into the hands of the right people, hopefully I can use it well ya friend!
