     Nowadays, most of us live a busy life. What do you do to keep yourself relaxed?
Besides spending time with family, having a glass of wine with friends or reading a book,
how about a hobby?
     Personally, I'm a collector. I like blue and white pieces the best---blue and white
anything﹗Plates,jars,vases, cups, bowls---I love them all. Collecting items is like
something you can't get enough of. You get one, and you want to have more.
     I find collecting to be a fun and inspirational hobby. In many ways, it's like a puzzle
I'm never tired of solving. I look high and low for new pieces to add to my collection. I
can often be found visiting Marshell's, looking over their inexpensive offerings. In fact, I
found one of my favorite pieces there.
     I've mixed inexpensive pieces from Marshell's with more expensive finds. A lot of times,
it's the piece I'm not looking for that falls into my lap; I find a way to make it part of my
blue and white family. What I love about my collection is that when I get inspired, I can
move them around the house, mix and match and make things look fresh and new.
     Ever since I was a little girl, blue has been my favorite color. I think I got it from my
aunt in Mexico. Some of my earliest memories are visiting her in Mexico and sitting on a
chair in her kitchen, which had blue and white tiles(瓷砖)from the floor to the ceiling. I
would spend countless hours admiring all the beautiful blue and white plates and shiny blue
tiles around her kitchen. Once I had a home, I began to build my own blue and white
collection.
