My apologies for taking a week to respond to all your comments!

Serena: I love your magnet collection!

Donna: When I was a kid, I collected old bottles. I remember finding an old bottle dump once and spent hours digging through there and “claiming” the cool bottles I found.

Sheila: No need to apologize for “just” collecting books *laughs*

Lilly: Well, think of it this way – you are probably saving money (not to mention space) by not having another collection! It just says you are less obsessive-compulsive than the rest of us *smiles*

JensBookTalk: Pigs! How fun is that?!?!? Wish we could have seen them!

Jenners: Glad you liked the challenge

Trish: I loved your collection!!

Cindy: They’re fun, aren’t they?

Molly: Cookie jars are a fun collection idea…it is amazing the vast array of them that are produced. I especially like the ones made during the 50s.

Twiga: I have a collection of the Boyds bears…but they are boxed up right now. Love your giraffes!

Gautami: You get extra credit for creating a poem in the middle of the Read-A-Thon

Helen: Thank you!

Sara: Your post made me laugh! Thanks!

Yay the world(s) of fantasy…whether artistic or written.

Actually, I don’t really care about winning the book so you don’t need to put my name in for that. I just love talking about collections and seeing what people collect. I have many collections, some of which I don’t really do anymore (for instance, used to collect Boyds Bears village pieces but they are now all discontinued so have stopped the collection of them). I posted about my 3 main collections. Wonderful idea for a mini-challenge!

Such a great idea for a challenge! While I no longer collect them (and our current collection of over 150 are in the attic so I can’t provide a picture on my blog) — my husband and I used to collect Cookie Jars

Wonderful, Wendy! I just wish that I had my entire collection here at the house to include in the picture…oh well.

Some of the mini-challenges don’t make sense to me because I have a big headache from reading so much but this one I could handle! Nice idea and thanks for hosting it. I loved this author’s book “Midwives” so this would be a nice win. : )
