When I think of my youth in Spain, the candy is something that really stands out, it is so fresh, all unwraped little treasures of goodness....ahhhh drooling yes.<BR/><BR/>what do i collect then? huh, well right now I am collecting chickens..yes live chickens. I started off telling myself they were just for eggs, and we would need 3 for our family, now once they all mature I will have enough eggs to feed a multitude. Since I don't have any official collections (beyond the obvious: books!!) that must be it right now. I have 4 different breeds, and I have 14 so far...I think we are done collecting until we move to the country. if you are interested in them I talk about them a ton on my personal blog. (you can get there by going to my page and clicking on the "life" button up top)<BR/><BR/><BR/>anyway...If I win the treats I PROMISE to not share even a nibble with my chickens!bethany (dreadlock girl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02565178664993925800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-5406559147727675952008-06-25T03:34:00.000+02:002008-06-25T03:34:00.000+02:00Lol, I've gone through so many phases of collectin...Lol, I've gone through so many phases of collecting... I used to collect those little metal tabs that you pull off of soda cans... Why? I have no idea. I've collected rocks, shells, movie tickets, and actually have a pretty impressive coin collection. <BR/><BR/>Besides all that, I like many of the others here collect books. But the main thing I collect right now are snowglobes. I just love them! <BR/><BR/>Sounds like a great contest! I'll add you to my blogroll, although you're already on my LT bloggers page, and I'll blog about the contest if I get a chance :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-87216753514775188432008-06-24T21:00:00.000+02:002008-06-24T21:00:00.000+02:00I collect: books (particularly Canada-related and...I collect: books (particularly Canada-related and from the late 1800s-early 1900s--my oldest book so far is a hardcover from 1888, and I have a bunch that are pre-1930--though I collect tons of others, too, especially hardcover first editions); plushies; turtles; huskies and Alaskan Malamutes; pins (instead of postcards); hats; salt-and-pepper shakers; music boxes; Japanese pencil boards and various anime art books and plushies; dragons...and I <I>think</I> that's all, though I can't say for sure--most of my stuff is in storage at the moment!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and if you want to contact me for any reason, my e-mail is finvic @ gmail.com (minus the spaces, of course!).FinnyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12406499122103755857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-15578860879532694172008-06-24T17:16:00.000+02:002008-06-24T17:16:00.000+02:00I've been collecting music boxes since I was about...I've been collecting music boxes since I was about 8-years-old. My first one was a jewelry box with a clown that danced when it played "Send in the Clowns". I have a couple that are over 100 years old, one is a candy dish and the other held face powder. One of my favorites is a German house (the kind in the mountains) that I bought at a flea market for a couple bucks, but it's worth a WHOLE lot more. :-D<BR/><BR/>PS..
