For those of you who love all things natural, I'd like to share: I have always enjoyed designing and enjoying fragrant gardens. Now I make natural perfume. As a natural perfumer, I host a group on Yahoo with over 600 members Yahoo Natural Perfumery group A commercial website has grown out of that group, where natural perfume is the theme, both educationally and market-wise. Natural Perfumery is where artisan, botanical perfumes are found. Look for the launch of my own line of natural perfumes in 2006 at Anya's Garden of Natural Perfumes
 1974-1988 She doesn't have her dreadlocks here, but she spread the Irie vibe every minute of her life. In 1975, while I was walking her near the Roxy theater in West L.A., I heard a man's voice laugh and say "They have Rastapoodles in America." Bob Marley and the Wailers were playing there that weekend, and I believe the man who spoke was Bob. Although a fan of the Wailers, I didn't know them by sight, and so I'm not sure. Anyway, she heard the word 'poodle', and started dancing and jumping up and down, and everyone had a good laugh. The name stuck. She was raised with cats, and thought cats were her family and playmates. To keep her name alive, it was the first screename I used when I signed on the Internet in 94. Long live the memory of Rastapoodle.
