    You Scream for Ice Cream?

    I like Dryer's light vanilla ice cream, a cone of soft serve, frozen yogurt, or fruit flavored gelato or sorbet (not quite ice cream, but a relative). I'm not a huge fan of regular ice cream because when I was little it would sometimes make me sick.

    This evil evil vintage addiction (men are welcome in this one, too)

    For me it's all about paper things - especially magazines. My magazine collection is slowly growing, and when I find new ones I can't resist buying *at least* one. I've been trying to reign in my magazine obsession by only buying magazines from the 1930s (plus or minus 5 years). So far so...

    Is there a Thespian in you?

    It would take an *awful* lot of makeup and camera angles :p , but I think I could do Rosalind Russell. My goofy side could take on Joan Blondell. My more serious side would perhaps go for Bette Davis despite the fact I'm not a huge fan of her (what fun to give Errol Flynn a slap, even though I...

    Show us your critters

    This cat adopted the house I lived in and everyone in it. She was technically the neighbor across the street's, but she pretty much lived at my house. Months ago I gave her a ridiculous name that I can't even remember now, but it never caught on and she was just known as "the cat." She's an...

    Osa Massen

    Wow - you have good reason to be excited! Reminds me that there's always something more out there to learn about family history and relations.

    Show us your vintage home!

    Both of those buildings are very cool looking and the decorations are great! Marquise - is that a poster of a Caillebotte painting in your bedroom? I love his painting of a Paris street on a rainy day.

    Do you have a nickname?

    I don't have any exciting stories, I'm usually just Mal (short for Mallory). My parents will occasionally call me Mouse and sometimes Moose for no other reason than they start with M (I resemble or act like neither animal, haha). That's strictly an immediate family thing though, for the rest...

    25 Most Played songs in your iTunes library

    This, of course, not including the songs that I've listened to a million times on CDs (mostly the Busby Berkeley soundtrack and songs downloaded from here.) Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps - Cake Ch-Check It Out - The Beastie Boys Charade (Main Title) - Henry Mancini Song 2 - Blur Whatever Will...

    The Best-Loved Frenchman

    I'm halfway through that movie! I wasn't too into the movie intially, until the "Isn't it Romantic" song number. That won me over. The jury's still out on what I think of him though.

    What Makes You Choose One Decade Over Another?

    1930s all the way! LizzieMaine, I like your description of a period as feeling like *home*! I think you said it perfectly. :) My interest originally started with World War II, but I've been slowly migrating backwards in time. I started out being a fan of big band swing - Benny Goodman...

    TCM Guest Programmer

    Ooo, this is fun!: 1. The Thin Man - one of the first classic films I fell in love with 2. This Gun for Hire - Veronica Lake and Alan Ladd are so cute 3. Footlight Parade - I'm not a big musicals person, but I love Busby Berkeley musicals (and Dick Powell). 4. The 39 Steps -...

    When did you first start wearing Make-up?

    I'm with everyone on the Bonne Bell Lipsmackers! I loved those things and wore them since early grade school years. As far as makeup goes though, I didn't really wear any until high school, and even then I didn't wear very much - mostly just pale colors of eyeshadow and colored lipglosses. My...

    Chocolate: A very important poll!

    This is an easy question: dark all the way! White chocolate doesn't really qualify as chocolate in my mind and milk chocolate often doesn't taste very chocolately. I really need to go buy a bar of Green & Blacks - I've heard how good that brand is from so many people!

    Recommended Vintage-esque Nail Polish

    Oh, I never thought of that before! Good idea. I'll try the warm water and then the nail polish if that doesn't work - thanks for the advice. :)

    There's NO Place Like...

    My parents recently moved from California to Colorado (they're in the Denver area), and they love it there. The housing is very affordable and the Rocky Mountains are beautiful. There are a lot of pretty nature areas if you're an outdoorsy person and Denver's not a bad city.
