Im obssesed too about planning all my travels. I love to visit all cities I go. Good Luck in your looking for the sideboard, mom always says that say simple is say difficult to find. Happy Weekend.
PS: Sorry for the mistakes!!!
Humm, our "obsessions" are quite similar. What is it about engraved stationery and a fabulous sideboard? I'm so with you!
Oh my gosh, I think I had that Dancerina!! Or am I getting it mixed up with a doll whose pony tail would grow? I'm so confused and my memory is horrible, but I wonder if they still make Dancerina!
I had Dancerina, too. I forgot all about her! funny.
Merry Christmas!
