Hi Everybody! {{{waving}}}
I am so glad I have been tagged again! This time by Shasarignis at shasarignis.blogspot.com. I struggled to make a post when D7ana from http://phillycollector.blogspot.com/ tagged me for the "World Doll Day" this past June. Summer got in the way and I never got around to it, darn it! I have time now. I will tell you more about why in an upcoming post. It took me a few days, but I am here! (grin) So, I will respond to both at once
Thanks shasarignis and D7ana!

- Invent eleven questions for your nominees.
Here are the questions from Shasarignis:
1. What is your favorite doll and why ?
The one I love the most is the one I found buried in my back yard. Aside from being beautiful, she makes me think of one word... survival and has become my muse. She sits on my desk.
I also like any doll with full articulation. The ones I would want to own are any found at http://terrigoldphoto.blogspot.com/
2. One of your best childhood memories
Going to the New York Worlds Fair
3. Do you travel with your dolls (plane or go to job) ?
Yes, I have a post coming up where I took a fashion doll and a 1:12 doll to the beach this past May.
4. When did you start to collect dolls ?
I was probably about four. I never threw them away. They all just sort of disappeared!
5. Do you collect anything else than dolls ?
Cameras, antique books, especially old hymnals to name a few.
6. Do you have a favorite place that you like to go, and why this place and not another place ?
Any warm place near water.
Any warm place near water.
7. If you have a machine to go back in time, in which time do you want to go ?
I would be chilling (spending time ) with Cleopatra in her palace using her natural products and talking about girly stuff. LOL
8. If you could choose your job, what kind of job you would choose ?
Since I am now semi-retired, it would be one that I would make my own hours and play a lot.
9. If you could make a movie, what kind of movie would you make ?
It would be a hilarious comedy, but Denzel Washington would have to be in it!
10. Have you been on a cruise, if not, where would you like to be on a cruise ?
I have been on two cruises so far. One to Panama, Cost Rica and Belize, the other was to the Bahamas.
11. Do you think it is important to respect nature and why ?
Yes. I Recycle, repurpose (watch next post) and reuse a lot! Many of us are fortunate to have plenty. We need to honor that by not wasting while protecting and preserving the earth and all of its inhabitants. RANDOM FACTS
