A Major Award

It's quite thrilling to know that someone reads your ramblings.  I was nominated by two marvelous blogs (Dolly Dorm Diaries and Among the Dolls) for the "Prestigious Liebster Award."  
Oh yeah.  


The questions asked by Dolly Dorm Diaries are:

1.  What part of doll collecting to you love most?
A: Learning about the history from each time period.   And spending all my money on clothes for my vinyl companions. 
2.  What are you to your doll(s)?  Mom? Caretaker? Friend?
A: Caretaker, I suppose.  I don't exactly enter into their world at all.  
3.  What doll is your mini me?
A: #24 is the closest AG has come, but if Isabelle had brown eyes, she'd probably be the closest. 
4.  What is your favorite AG pet?
A: Josefina's chickens, of course! 
5.  Ever been to an AG Place?  If so, where?
A: Seattle and Los Angelus 
6.  Take your dolls out in public?
A: Somewhat.  More rural public than the city.  
7.  Beach or mountain vacation?
A: I'd like to say mountain, but there's no way.  Beach.
8.  Favorite vacation spot?
A: Lake house in really hot weather.  
9.  Favorite AG Horse?
A: Steps High
10. Early riser or night owl?
A: Early riser
11. Own an AG boy doll?  Name?
A: I'm glad you asked!  He will be joining us shortly, but there's no name yet.  


Among the Dolls Questions:

1. How long have you collected AG dolls?
A: Since Christmas of 2004  2. Who was your first AG doll?
A: My Grandma gave me Kirsten because I loved "the pioneer doll." 
3. How many AG dolls do you have?
A: Oh goodness.  30, I think, but I haven't counted in awhile.  I'm hoping to sell a couple soon.
4. Do you have any customs? How many?
A: Yes; one at the moment.  Jaikey, who's parts consist of Ivy's face and eyes, Saige's hair, and a smattering of freckles.
5. Who's your next doll?
A:  Marie Grace custom!  Fingers crossed at the moment; I'm hoping to find a Ruthie wig to trade with her old one.  We'll see.
6. What's your favorite song?
A:  There's never only one.  Oh, That Thing You Do (by the Oneders), Anything Goes, Come Fly With Me, and The Way You Look Tonight (all sung by Frank Sinatra).  I'm a big fan of Swing.
7. What's your favorite book?
A: To Kill a Mockingbird is up there.  I have three favorite series', however.  Little House on the Prairie, Little Britches, and The Chronicles of Narnia.   Mom always read those books to us at night.
8. What's your favorite t.v. show?
A: When I'm with my mom, The Brady Bunch and The Donna Reed Show.  When with my brother, Sherlock and Firefly.

8. What magical skill do you wish you had?
9. Where would you travel if you could go anywhere in the world, and why?
