I get obsessed about genealogy from time to time. <BR/><BR/>I also went a bit mad over the Yentl soundtrack, Regency England in general, regency romances, Georgette Heyer, <BR/>Jane Seymour, Pierce Brosnan, The Pioneer Woman, and Jo (from LW). There are probably more matches, but I need to get the monkeys ready for church.<BR/><BR/>(Oddly enough the kids are watching Shrek and "Hallelujah" just was playing.

My Irish obsession started one morning when I was about 21. I woke up having had a dream about a book I had read in grade school. It was about Deirdre, Naoise, and his brothers and I went to my old school that day to try to find the book--no luck. To this day I have never found the exact version of the legend I had read first but 20 some year later, I'm still looking. Meanwhile, the more I read, the more I want to know. My Scottish obsession has been just as bad, however. My Victorian obsession started shortly after my English one--which started as a senior in high school in my Brit Lit class. I have to go along with all of your others, except for Tasha, whom I admire but have never felt an obsession for. There is a lovely article about her in the December 2007 issue of the newly reissued Victoria magazine. Oh, and Lego's, my sons love them, even the 18 yr old, but I just don't have the patience!) My blog design--Tristan Chabot of My Daisy Baby Blog Designs did it--she is very talented. It's nice to find someone who likes it as well as I do. I buy my dollhouse furniture in box lots of vintage pieces, usually on eBay, but if I am hunting for a certain piece, I often buy new. I buy all of it online, either online miniature stores or eBay auctions/stores. There are no minis around where I live so all my minis come in the mail. Then I do the painting and embellishing. I do make some things out of clay. I have been asked to submit photos and an interview for a miniature magazine featuring my "work" which I am excited about but I have to say, there are many others out there who are far (far!) more talented miniaturists than I. Do you have a blog, Lila?Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12660156433881882098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7015651593178985156.post-28824884444435698042008-08-30T21:17:00.000-07:002008-08-30T21:17:00.000-07:00Hi Heidi,My biggest obsession is my 8 grandchildre...Hi Heidi,<BR/>My biggest obsession is my 8 grandchildren. I adore them.<BR/>Next in line, anything English or Irish.<BR/>Anything Victorian. (I was born in the wrong era.)<BR/>Anything having to do with the fine "art of taking tea."<BR/>Anything having to do with Tasha Tudor (recently deceased at the ripe old age of 92)Dolls, doll houses, legos, (grandsons) gardening, reading, fresh flowers in the house, fine china and my husband, (not necessarily in this order.)<BR/>A question for you Heidi. Where did you get your dollhouse furniture? And who made your blog site? It's lovely.<BR/>Have a blessed day.<BR/>Miss Lila in AtlantaUpdated by Lila Huggins (grandmother)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08686127350353876114noreply@blogger.com
