文化有根 創意是伴 Bridging Creativity
現代人凡是能夠過簡樸日子的,都要說一句「你丟我撿」。撿起廢物,可以利用來做出各種實用東西,既省了錢,又可享受創造過程中的無限樂趣。
我母親這位老式的農村婦女,可說是充分發揮了「你丟我撿」的簡省美德的。任何破爛無用之物,她都能化腐朽為神奇,把它們變成家庭不可缺少的用具,或是小玩意,或是小女孩的飾物。母親年輕時一雙十指尖尖的蘭花手,到老來儘管粗糙多皺又多裂,卻也是一雙會變戲法的魔術手呢!
現就記憶中略舉幾樣來說說:
〈柚子碗、盒〉
家鄉秋來的柚子是非常肥碩的。柚子成熟時,村裡孩子們都用竹竿敲打,柚子紛紛落地,大家都吃得胃冒酸水了。母親卻吩咐大一點的孩子,爬上樹上,揀那些圓鼓鼓長得勻稱的,小心摘下來,放在籃子裡,用繩子垂下來,這樣柚子就不會跌傷,因為母親是要拿柚子皮做容器的。
她先用刀在柚子齊腰之處,輕輕畫一圈,要瞄得很準,不偏不倚,兜過來剛剛連成像地球赤道似的一條線。剝功也很重要,不能性急,要慢慢兒用指甲把皮挑開一點,再用大拇指伸入,輕輕地繞著割縫一圈圈愈轉愈深,直到蒂頭之處,雙手捧著一轉,皮就完整地脫落下來了。趁著新鮮柔軟時,以大小適合的碗套入,一蓋一底。碗不能太小,以免皮乾了會皺;也不能太大,以免皮會繃破,要恰到好處。放在透風之處吹乾,不能曬,曬了皮就變黑,香味也跑了。直等乾透以後,將碗脫下,就成了兩個玲瓏的柚子碗,合在一起就是柚子盒了。
柚子盒非常清香。外公拿它裝旱煙,煙絲也會透著一股柚子香。我呢?拿它裝花生米,端著邊走邊吃,比放在口袋裡弄得一袋的花生皮好得多。母親用一個個柚子碗裝糖果素點供佛。真個是發揮了百寶盒的用途呢。
