Okay .... Can you please tell me what language you are speaking? I understand (I think)the last names, but what are the first ones? I know I collect some things, but I speak English. Such as key chains, candle holders and autographed things. Although, I think you might have discribed Cheryl . . . ? Love you two.
ReplyDeleteThink the first is based on Latin; Cute, Sue, to think of the
ReplyDelete"Collector" name as a "last" name: think of several spaces between the "fancy name" and the others to see the second IS the common word in English.
It would be a toss up to see whether Cheryl collects in more categories than I do. I am seriously trying to cut back; ie: Angel statues since 1970, stopped when they became more popular (in the '90's?) Told sons when gifted with A doll and A snowglobe/music box for Christmas that I LOVED the gifts AND givers, but NO Collections! My grandpa collected owls & Nana pitchers, plates & minatures (I have 100+ of the last on my own.)
Love to all & back to you, Sue.
Glad you are back, Cheryl.
Two freinds and I went to the antique weekend in Walnut a couple years ago. I got sick of hearing myself say, "I have one of these," or "I collect these."
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know where to start, Lou. But I could probably begin a list of things I collect just for fun and add to it as I remember. Right now MUCH is packed during remodeling and some hasn't been unpacked since we moved 3 years ago.
