[QUOTE="pearlsnblume, post: 5733220, member: 141"]I love disco too. And I miss it. Will keep this short since it is getting late here. I started when I moved into my apt and wanted a blue and white kitchen. So I collected depression delphite kitchenware to decorate with. It never went in my kitchen but in a china cabinet. I didn't know about ebay yet (so many many years ago) but I was in a mom and pop pharmacy and the gal behind the cash register was hoping to win a Winnie The Pooh something or other. I got home and looked up what ebay was all about and starting collecting more of the delphite and chalaine pieces. I also have always bought and collected cookbooks. I could spend hours in a book store looking thru the cookbooks... mostly those for pastries, pies and cakes. Always was more of a baker than a cook. Finally I decided to start selling and have been doing it for decades. I agree, if I only knew what I knew today I would have made out like a bandit.[/QUOTE]
