Pieces of Me


Hiya dolls!! I hope the week has faired well for you. I received these awards ages ago, but couldn't really think of what to say about myself, I still can't but I really must thank Kim from Sassy Uptown Chic for presenting me with these sweet awards, I really appreciate it. You must check her out and say hello, she is a darling girl with a precious heart! I wish you all a great day..the weekend is almost here..welcome to all new followers & ones who have been tagging along with me for a while now *hug*

xox


 
Hmmm..about me, I must list 7 things about me (am doing it for one award, as I'm rubbish at talking about myself) well randomness is always good. Here we go : )

I utterly adore Kate Bush, She's been a favourite since a child, now my girls love her too. The way she throws herself into each piece is amazing :)




I love the accordion - I know dorkish to some people, but hello..hear Yann Tiersen jamming on one and that is why, he's fantastical..maybe he gives lessons!?! lol!


I love burlesque, yes yes!! I've been to some shows as well. I think the women are marvelous and beautiful! Get your tassels and feathers out ;) hehe!


Burlesque Superstar Miss Sally Rand (1930s)

 
I'm quite addicted to Scottish snowballs, I eat way too many of them whilst drinking a cup of tea, but they are wonderful, if I do say so myself, lol. I only eat the ones from a certain store here because everywhere else I've had them have been not as nice. It's soft cake covered with coconut flakes with a raspberry jam center = happiness ;)


 
I will not watch a Leonardo DiCaprio movie and certainly not Titanic. Why you ask!?! Because my younger sister was over the moon for him back in the day and I had to take her to see Titanic over 10 times at the cinema, I kid you not!! And also watch his movies at home. And hang up over 600 posters of him on her wall - that is no joke, what a sister I am ;) I also stood in line at midnight at the video store to buy her the movie when it came out on DVD with my mum..we got our picture in the paper with others because apparently this movies was a big hit, LOL..who knew!!! haha!! I remain un-impressed with him.

Notice, I'm not even putting a picture of him or the movie!?! haha ;p


I never get tired of this song....


When I was little, I wanted to run away and live with The Munsters, wooo! They are fantastical :)

    Hullo... Are we living in the same era? Gosh you post up videos of songs from yesteryears! U know I intially didn't know who Kate Bush was but once I clicked play and hear the very familiar 80s kind of music rhythmn, I knew the song.

    Great post as always! It's so awesome you love Kate Bush, I'm actually a huge fan as well. I actually used to have a girlfriend who resembled Kate Bush a lot. When I told her she completely freaked out at me and took it as being a criticism as opposed to a compliment! For some reason she thought Kate Bush was unattractive, I couldn't believe it.

    HAHA Kizzy! Don't feel bad girl, I have more awards too that I haven't put up. LOL You are so deserving! I love you girl. You are such a sweetie. Thank you so much for the compliments girl. (BLUSH). I love the burlesque fashions. I may have to do a post about that. I've never been to a show. LOVE the Munsters and Addams Family. They had a quirky sense of humor. Wishing you a great day Kizzy! ((HUG))

    I loved hearing about your Scottish snowballs, I can see how they could be quite addicting! Luckily there's no such delicacy around here or I would be joining you! And I had to laugh about your Leonardo stories, haha!

    p.s. Thank you for your note about Scotland, what a wonderful adventure this must've been for you!

    CONGRATS on the awards Kizzy, well deserved. Loved reading your fun facts - must try the Scottish snowballs when I visit London for Xmas - can't wait.
    HAppy weekend sweetheart,

    Axx

    PS:
    you almost should let yourself watch Leonardo stuff - he is SO much more that Titanic and a lot rougher around the edges ha ha

    I too love the Munsters. I grew up with the name Fleckenstein which was close to Frankenstein so I felt like I should live with them or have a house like them. You are a great sister...what dedication to her cause...lovely post. Have a great weekend! oh, and those Scottish snowballs...yum to the max. Dawn Suitcase Vignettes xo
