Live on CTV
Well, that was really fun. Today I was interviewed on The CTV morning show. I could get used to this. Here’s the link. Enjoy. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE VIDEO
I Love My Job
There are days when I just can’t believe how lucky I am to get to make hats for beautiful ladies. This Is Kelly. I don’t think she will mind me telling you that she has just gone through some aggressive cancer treatment. She is a local mom and some friends of hers from The South…
Once Upon a Time
–> Tomorrow I will be the guest of honour at The Bozzy Book club at The Boscawen Inn here in Lunenburg. It is hat day. So very exciting. This means I get to hang out with many children, read one of my favourite stories, Caps For Sale, make paper hats and tell a little tale…
The Living in Lunenburg top 10
Today is my birthday. Thank you, thank you. It’s been a verbal year for me, to put it mildly. I’m just a woman filled with opinions, but there is one opinion that has never wavered and that is that I am very lucky to live in Lunenburg. There is not a day that goes by…
Just Another Lunenburg Morning
Honest to God…No camera filter. I don’t think I could ever live anywhere flat. Takes a bit of training to walk up these hills, but it keeps you young. I took this photo from my studio window. I’d be rich by now if it weren’t for the time I waste just staring. O.K., This photo…
My Big Mouth – The Changing of The Blogs
When I was a little girl and I was scared to ask for something or stick up for myself, my mother would say, “Anna, God gave you a mouth. Use it!” I am sure she came to regret this advice, as I was known as something of a volatile child, but six months ago,…

If you are looking for untouched beauty then I suggest…….. Peggy’s Cove. Spectacular biking and kayaking? Ummm…Cabot trail. Ya, that’s it. I hear the Cabot trail is incredible. Folk…
My Touchy Feely Christmas Message
The following blog is brought to you by a little extra something that I poured into my coffee.Was just thinking back to an Ideas on CBC episode that I heard over a year ago. Whoever was speaking was talking about how every major religion begins with the welcoming of a stranger. That’s it. When I…
Anna Goes to The City
When I signed off yesterday, I was just about to curl up into a ball and settle in for the night in a pile of Edie’s fabrics, but instead Edie and I decided to head into Halifax…. to look at more fabric. Patch is a beautiful little shop on Robie st. in the North end…
The Competition – Edie
I know I should be in competition with another curly haired, ex dancer, mad as a loon hat maker that also happens to live in Nova Scotia, but the fact is, I just adore her. What’s a girl to do. How can I feel anything but love for a woman that happens to love all…
