Jodie at
Everything Vintage,
she's posted about the fabulous time we spent together this past weekend!

Is your name Fiona?
That would be a no. My name is Anne.
Then why the name Fiona and Twig ?
When I was trying to settle on a blog name,
I knew that I wanted something somewhat ambiguous,
yet had meaning to me.
You know, along the lines of Crabtree &
Evelyn, Abercrombie & Fitch, Williams Sonoma...
My most beloved pet growing up was a calico cat named Twig.
My best friend Tom had a beloved calico cat named Fiona.
I 'splained it all right
here on my very first post.
And there ya have it!
Why aren't we seeing lots and lots of new pics of your cool new house?
Sore subject.
Because we still haven't moved in yet.
Apparently finding a contractor to put up a fence
is only marginally more difficult
than placing a man on the moon.
And we can't move in until the fence is secure for our pups.
At this point, I'll be happy if we're moved in by Christmas. Seriously.
What happened to your dream of owning a shop one day?
This blog, and consequently my journey, has been nothing if not organic.
As much I've loved and adored
having a space in an antique mall, I've found
that my true passion is photography,
not so much being a shop owner.
In my perfect world, this little blogging gig
will lead to a photo stylist / photography gig
for one of the shelter mags. Fingers crossed!
Do you read and respond to all your comments?
I most certainly read each and every comment,
and appreciate them more than you know.
And I respond to as many of your comments as I can,
either via e-mail or comments on your own blogs.
Sometimes life gets in the way and I don't always
make it back around to everybody, but it's never for a lack of trying!
Why did you disable the ability for people to make anonymous comments here?
It only takes one, as they say.
My thoughts? If you feel strongly enough to leave a nasty, negative comment,
at least have the huevos to sign your name.
Why don't you have word verification on your comments?
Short answer?
Because I think it's of the devil.
:-)
I feel like it's an unnecessary and frustrating hoop
to make your guests go through, especially when comment approval
does basically the same thing ( weeds out spam ).
If you have it on your blog, that's your decision,
but the more hurdles I have to clear to leave a comment on your blog,
the less likely I am to leave one.
I'm just sayin'.
Why do you watch such horrendous reality TV shows?
Mea culpa.
I need some sort of stress release from the rigors of my big girl job
(I work long hours as a respiratory therapist in critical care settings)
and crummy, non-socially redeemable television is my drug of choice.
I know it's utterly vacuous and bad for me, but that's half the fun!
If you were a superhero, which superhero power would you choose?
You mean I'm not one already?
{smile}
Invisibility.
That and the ability to clean my entire house in mere seconds.
Sushi or Steak?
Sushi. A spicy tuna hand roll, please.
Favorite blog?
Anyone who keeps it real while doing so with style.
Lots and lots of you fit the bill!
Do you believe in Heaven?
Absolutely!
Although I don't vocalize it nearly enough here on my blog,
my Catholic faith is very important to me.
The nihilistic world view which espouses that this world
is all there is holds no appeal for me.
I can't pinpoint its exact geographic location,
but I hope to meet you all there one day!

This was fun!
I feel another installment coming on in the not-too-distant future.
And because a post without pics just plain bites,
here ya go...
Is Gracie your dog?
No, Gracie belongs to a couple of dealers
we were set up next to in Warrenton last Spring.
I spent a week next to precious little Gracie back then,
so when we headed back last month,
Gracie was tops on my list of "people" to see.
Have a wonderful week!
