Appalachian Spring

There's nothing like an Appalachian Spring....

This is a Bradford Pear tree.  These are the flower bud right before they bloom.

They look like miniature flower bunches to me.

Saucer Magnolia, just beginning to flower.

Maple tree bud.

This is our Biscuit #1.  (Private collection.)

She is my little Appalachian tomboy.

She's nearly always accompanied by a dog.

This dog is named Chi-Chi.

Biscuit always reminds me of Spring.

I love Aaron Copeland's "Appalachian Spring" composition.

I used to hate Martha Graham's ballet of the same name- I thought it was so boring, but now I think it's quite nice.

I'll have more about Biscuit soon.

For now- Happy Spring!

BISCUIT!

Biscuit's Here!

She's the same size as the Peony dolls, so they can wear the same clothes.

She's got freckles in her sunny cheeks.

She's ready to play in her denim overalls.

She comes with a quilt and a pet dog - Miss Cheevis (Chi-Chi for short),

and has a bag designed and made just for her- the "Biscuit Bag"!
