I appreciate:

• Rocks – polished and un-polished, semi-precious and sparkly, plain and ordinary. I like finding them, holding them, wearing them, looking at ’em.
• Paper – colored, white, lined, textured, mass-produced, and homemade. I like it in books, for scribbling messages, for organizing, and for folding into little airplanes.
• Scissors. Well, they are just plain handy.
