I have no memories of a lucky penny, but one I do remember was when I was about 11 or 12 years old I was at a convenience store with a friend and as we came out of the store I threw my pennies to the ground for someone else's good luck. As I threw them this man said to me as he passed into the store "Those pennies add up to dollars." But he didn't pronounce it "dollars" he said "doll-az". I have quoted that man ever since every time I find a penny ...my husband even quotes him now after listening to me repeat those words so many times. So now I don't throw my pennies down anymore. Maybe I should start again. : )<br /><br />You speak German? Wow. I wish I could speak a second language. Spanish would come in handy in our area. Thank you for your kind words about my Liebster post. : )Lisa Graham https://www.blogger.com/profile/17908986924935514538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9889100.post-8289767733753721222012-01-05T00:35:59.993-08:002012-01-05T00:35:59.993-08:00BragonDorn - I do the same - you are clever!

Unfortunately, I have never been given a lucky penny, especially by a handsome stranger - if only!!! I really do love your writing style and love the way you are able to create these little stories. I really felt that I was there with them, which is always a good sign from the reader's point of view, don't you think?
