Spring...No! Wait! Winter! And a Famosa Los Barriguitas Doll

  The Spring was here,but it has tucked it's tail between it's legs and let Winter back in, for a while at least. Yesterday the weather was warm and sunny. I popped outside and took photos of a doll and picked up trash that had blown into my yard. (That makes twice this Spring.) Today I got up early and my friend Lori and I headed to Kentucky to pick up the horse trailer we couldn't bring home last time because she had the wrong  hitch. It was fairly warm when I left home this morning,but it quickly became overcast. (I did mention that it rains everywhere I go.) By the time we got home this evening it was COLD,and quite foggy. When I got home it was 39 degrees Fahrenheit.
  So here is a picture of my very Springy daffodils, which will probably be wilted and covered in snow tomorrow morning!


And here is the doll I photographed yesterday,in the little purple flowers that grow on the ground cover vines around my yard.


She's made by Famosa. According to readers she's a Los Barriguitas doll. I do think they are right.


A Flickr friend told me this about Famosa: an acronym for united doll factories from Onil (a region in Valencia were many toy factories were located).


She measures about 5 1/2" tall.


She's jointed at the neck, shoulders, and hips. She was a Goodwill find a while back.


She has a cute face. Her arms are sort of elephantine though.


She seems to be wearing her original clothes,but no shoes.



I like her big eyes and cute smile.


If anybody knows who she is, please let me know.



Who knows how long until we have another sunny day!
