Art Qs

Would you be interested in getting fountain pen inks or art supplies via JetPens and or DickBlick? I have a pretty big DickBlick wishlist, so I think that answers this question. For those interested in watercolors, how would you feel about getting a palette filled with paint from my watercolor tubes but not getting the paint itself? That would be really cool!   How do you feel about getting art supplies in general? (copic markers, watercolor, brushes, paint, sketchbooks etc.) Art supplies are always welcome! I work in pencil/ink/watercolor. I also do lino cuts and paper-crafts.   How do you feel about Threadless tshirts? I love them but I already have too many tees. ;_;

Switch Witch question - H'ween 2011

My previous question entry from earlier rounds is here. Updated for Summer 2013 round.   Franken polish? I don't really know what that is. I don't often wear nail polish, but I'd be okay with being enabled.   Lip balm? I prefer the twist-up tube. I currently use Burt's Bees - I've got one tube of colorless that I wear most days and a couple tubes of a deep orangey-red color and a burgundy color that I wear as lipstick. I don't really like the lip balms that have a flavor.   T-shirts? Yup, I wear t-shirts. Usually XL - I've got huge...tracts of land, as they say. (i.e. big knockers, for the non-Monty Python fans). I'd totally be down with one designed by my witch.   Pumpkin-scented things? I don't really like pumpkin-scented candles; they smell too fake. I love to eat pumpkin, but the scented stuff just seems fake to me.   Glamourkin? I don't know what that is.   Toe socks? No, I don't like having things between my toes.   Order out or cook at home? I prefer to cook at home, though I do order out when it's been a long day. I love kitchen stuff, all kinds.   Gummies? I'm not a big fan of gummy candy.   Gela-skin for my phone? I'm likely going to be getting a new phone soon - not sure what kind - so I'm not sure how much use I'd get out of this. The iPod I use is my boyfriend's, so I'd feel weird putting a different skin on it since it's not mine.   Ears pierced? Other piercings? I have my ears pierced, and my nose double-pierced (two holes close together on the same side of my nose). I've been looking for small continuous rings for my nose in silver or steel. I have ones that are supposed to have a ball in them, but the ball never stayed and the dumb gaps are always turned out weirdly.   Whoopie pies? I've never had one, but I'd try them.   Anything from Lush? I've never shopped there. A witch got me some stuff from there once. I liked it. Sorry, that's not much help, is it?   Do you blog? Would you like a header? I appreciate the offer, but no. I do graphic design, so I've got particular ideas about how I want the redesign of my blog to look.   Handmade bookmark? Sure, I read A LOT - that'd be nice.   Chex puppy mix? NOM NOM NOM   Groupon? I'm pretty particular and my budget is pretty tight, and since they often require spending some money, I'd have to say no.   Sugar skulls? Sure, I like those.   Meringue? Blech!   Personalized bottle cap labels? Sure, though I only have about 6 bottles.   Puzzles/riddles? I like to do these when I ride on planes. I'm not a fan of cryptograms, but I like sudoku, crosswords and logic puzzles.   I think I answered most of the ones that I didn't answer on the forum. Some of those that I didn't answer are for things that I'm unfamiliar with or didn't really have an opinion on.   This blog makes me sound very contrarian. I'm really not!

Postcards, photos, random cool stuff   How do you feel about franken polish? Are you okay with all chemicals, or would you prefer 3 free? Would you want glitter or holographic glitter?

Favorite flavors? Flavors to avoid? Favorite brand? Do you need more right now or are you set? Are you one of those people who could never have enough lip balm even though you have a bowl on your dresser overflowing with them and 10 in your purse and an order for more on the way?: I love lip balm. I usually buy the kind in a tube. Right now I am using Blistex. I like the ones in the green tube and the orange tube. I'm always up for new kinds. I like mine to be kinda thick. Stuff like Lip Smackers is way too thin for me.   September 18th   Do you wear t-shirts? Are there particular things you like on them? Would you like one designed by your Witch? And, if you don't mind saying, what size t-shirt do you wear?: Most of my closet is t-shirts. And most of them are black. I have a lot of shirts with skulls. I would love a shirt from my Witch.

Switch Witch Fall 2011, questions from 9/16-9/18

September 18th   Do you wear t-shirts? Are there particular things you like on them? Would you like one designed by your Witch? And, if you don't mind saying, what size t-shirt do you wear?   Yes, but not as much as I used to. Between nursing (t-shirts generally not useful) and working in a business-casual environment (t-shirts not professional enough), I just don't have a whole lot of opportunity for t-shirts and probably won't until... oh... 2013? Sigh.   I am super large chested and don't like things particularly form fitting, so if it's lady-cut, I need an XL or even an XXL. In men's shirts, I can do anything from a M to an XL usually.   Most of my t-shirts are band t-shirts, but I like any sort of cool design... I'm not really into witty phrases on shirts though.   How do you feel about pumpkin scented things? Not perfume related, but soap, candles, etc....   Heh. One look at my Etsy list should tell you you're perfectly safe if you decide to send me pumpkin scented things.   Has anyone else heard of or does anyone else love Glamourkin?   Pretty, but probably not my style...   If you had an international witch, is there anything you would like from the UK? (Or Australia, Belgium, France any other country we have witches from.   Sure! International foods are always a win in my house, and any sort of vegan thing I can't find here is a treat... if my witch happens to be in France, I love reading French Glamour (I can't explain it, it's just much funnier than US or English Glamour) and would always welcome a copy of it coming my way.   Dear witchee, if you answered 'Mac' to the Mac/PC question previously issued by another participant, please tell me what kind of computer you have, what peripherals you own (like the wireless trackpad, wireless vs/wired keyboard and mouse), and whether you're interested in Apple-related items (stickers, keychains, other things with the logo, etc).   I have one of the early rounds of MacBook Pro, 15". I have a wireless mouse, but almost never use it... I actually really like the built in touchpad. Peripherals mostly seem like a pain to me with a laptop.   Apple paraphenalia is cool but I don't have a huge need for it.     SOCK PREFERENCES?   Would you like/wear a pair of these? http://www.ravelry.c...rary/yoga-socks If so, what color?   Is there anyone here who likes toe socks? You know, those socks with a place for each toe?   Toe socks kind of freak me out. Sorry! I love other socks though.   ---------------------------------------------------------- September 17th   Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now?   I don't own a lot on DVD because I don't rewatch movies very often... however, there are a bunch of things on DVD that I'd love to have for my son. The Lion King, maybe Aladdin, Mary Poppins, that sorta thing... kid classics.   Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards?   I like postcards and am always happy to get them.   Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall?   Argh, not me. The last time I saw live music was before my son was born.   Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters?   Yes! I lost interest around DS9 but loved the recent movie. Bones is my favorite from the original series, and I love all the engineers from TNG. And Tasha Yar. And Dr. Crusher. And even Wesley. I grew up watching TNG and it's very very nostalgic for me...   Witchee, would you like a framed photograph and of what?   Hmm... not really! I don't have much wall space open at home and have way too much stuff waiting to be hung up already.   ----------------------------------------------------------   September 16th   Are you more prone to order out or cook at home? Would you be interested in cookbooks, kitchen utensils, and the like? If so, anything specific?   Oh, I love both. (You may have gathered by now that I... I really love food.) But for my wallet's sake, we eat out/order in a max of once a week unless there are extenuating circumstances, like having out of town visitors...   I'm always interested in more cookbooks, especially vegan-specific ones. My Amazon wishlist (think you can find it by searching my real name) has some on it, and there are tons more I want but haven't added yet.   Cooking implements/kitchen utensils - also a resounding yes. Always on the look out for more containers (food-safe plastic or glass, or even tin or something fancy like that) that'll work for storing things like flour, nuts, lentils, etc. I buy a lot of stuff from the bulk bins and always need more containers... in basically any size you can think of.   Silicone spatulas - I'm looking for more single-piece ones. I had a lovely set that had wooden handles & silicon tops, aaand the wooden handles are really pretty gross after five years of heavy use.   Nice/interesting dishes... plates or bowls or whatever...   Chopsticks of any variety   Small cake pans... like < 9 inches... for making smaller cake tiers.   Um, I could keep going in this vein for a long time...   New question: How do you feel about maple syrup?   I feel pretty neutral about it. I don't go out of my way for maple things and it's not one of my favorite flavors, but I don't hate it either.   How do people feel about little pocket shrines, maybe something inspirational/motivational to keep in their purses/backpacks/whatever? (Like these: http://www.art-shrin...cketshrines.htm)   Cute! My kid gets into my backpack a lot though (anything that's mine is fascinating, of course) and would likely find and mangle it.   Do you like Star Wars? Original Trilogy? Prequels? Spin-offs? Favorite characters?   The original 3 are some of my all time favorite movies. I found the first one of the prequels so repulsive that I have never brought myself to watch the other two.   I've been hot for Han Solo since like, before I knew what a crush was... and am also a big Yoda fan.   Do you like beef jerkey   Nope.   I'm okay with vegan jerky but have access to a ton of brands here, so I'm probably all set on jerky!   Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work.   Almost all of my computer use these days is at work, and I work in a cubicle where my monitor faces a busy hallway, so yeah... no racy e-cards please!   Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay)   Yay! A hundred times yay! I love old and new. I think Tom Baker was my first crush. (Either that or DeForest Kelley.)   I have a couple spare Doctor Who stickers. If my witchee is a fan, would they like a couple Doctor Who stickers in their package?   Sure!   Anyone love Buffy/Angel?   Nope. I have to confess I've really never gotten into either.   How would you feel about gummies? Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires?   So, two things... 1. Most gummies have gelatin in them, so they're right out for me. 2. I actually work in a gummy factory (really! gummy factories have computers that need support too!) where there are lots of vegan products, so um, I'm probably already way too spoiled with gummies.   How would you feel about a totally original Gela-skin for your laptop/iPod/phone? Stickers? Decals?   Sure!   Since this is a Halloween round, what's your Creepy threshold? Are you a cartoon bats and smily pumpkins person or a skulls-and-bones the-dead-are-rising kind of person? Are your fairytales dark or Disney?   I don't like grotesque or gory. A former witch sent me a pamphlet of pictures & descriptions of sideshow freaks, and it made me really uncomfortable. Please don't send me something like that. Not really into death imagery either, I am way too aware of my own mortality these days and just not into it.   As far as fairy tales go, though, I do prefer the original, darker versions of most.   Are your ears pierced, Witchee? Do you have any other piercings? Would you like to receive any items of jewelry for these piercings?   No piercings, no plans to become pierced. Thanks but no thanks!   How do you all feel about Whoopie Pies?   Positively!

More Condiments

September 18th   Do you wear t-shirts? Are there particular things you like on them? Would you like one designed by your Witch? And, if you don't mind saying, what size t-shirt do you wear?   I do wear t-shirts, but rarely. I’m more of a blouse person (lately, mostly because of my unweildy upper body size.) Size wise, I can never really tell. Large at least, sometimes x-large. My bra size runs at 38 G, and I’m not really used to it or how to size it. I would LOVE sometime designed or created by my witch though    How do you feel about pumpkin scented things? Not perfume related, but soap, candles, etc....   I lurve pumpkin. I can’t burn candles in my apartment technically, but everything non-burny is good.   Has anyone else heard of or does anyone else love Glamourkin?   Never heard of it before. Upon googling, I find it intruiging. I’m not sure it is exactly my style but I’m sure I could find something there.   If you had an international witch, is there anything you would like from the UK? (Or Australia, Belgium, France any other country we have witches from.   Stroopwaffles. A million times. Forever and ever. Actually I just love international candies and sweets. I’m a big sucker. But like anything funsies that is representative, or fun from your area is wonderful!   Dear witchee, if you answered 'Mac' to the Mac/PC question previously issued by another participant, please tell me what kind of computer you have, what peripherals you own (like the wireless trackpad, wireless vs/wired keyboard and mouse), and whether you're interested in Apple-related items (stickers, keychains, other things with the logo, etc).   Not a mac userrrrr.   SOCK PREFERENCES?   Ankle, midcalf (trouser) or knee high. I like soft and sweet. Colors vary.   Would you like/wear a pair of these? http://www.ravelry.c...rary/yoga-socks If so, what color?   Huh can’t access the link :/   Is there anyone here who likes toe socks? You know, those socks with a place for each toe?   Never, uh, tried it?   September 17th   Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now?   All kinds would be wonderful. I’ve been dying to get Sweeny Todd (the new one, I have the original musical), Pan’s Labyrinth, and a dozen other varieties of movies. I love horror, fantasy, scifi, romance, comedy, action, suspense/thriller.   Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards?   I do love post cards! I could probably Nacho witch DC post cards… I think.   Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall?   Unfortunately I rarely get out to see concerts any more. But I do see musicals sometimes. Hopefully some of those this year    Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters?   Yes, TNG was my fav. Is all good. My fiance likes Deep Space Nine (that was one of the ST right?)   Witchee, would you like a framed photograph and of what?   Sure! Nature. Landscapes, forests, rivers, streams, waterfalls, flowers, meadows, etc.     September 16th   Are you more prone to order out or cook at home? Would you be interested in cookbooks, kitchen utensils, and the like? If so, anything specific?   I used to cook a ton, my new work schedule has been hurting me. I would LIKE all kinds of cooking things! Especially cook books. Especially YOUR recipes! I am looking a lot for things that are quick/prepared ahead of time since my schedule allows little time in the evenings. I am currently mostly gluten/soy/dairy free so that would be fun too (but don’t be afraid to send me foods with these things. This is lifestyle, not allergy.)   I would kill for a microplane zester, a mandolin (I dunno how spendy those are), silicon baking stuff  Probably other goodies tbh.   New question: How do you feel about maple syrup?   I love real maple syrup and all its derivatives.   How do people feel about little pocket shrines, maybe something inspirational/motivational to keep in their purses/backpacks/whatever? (Like these: http://www.art-shrin...cketshrines.htm)   That is actually very neat. I think one that could help me “get in touch with myself” (recurring theme in my life, getting in touch with myself, accepting myself, viewing different sides of myself, merging parts of myself, etc.)   Do you like Star Wars? Original Trilogy? Prequels? Spin-offs? Favorite characters?   Original, definitely. Prequels, I can stand. I LOVE the books. Exar Kun is my favorite evarrrrr. I’m DYING for the Star Wars MMO. Eeeeeeeeeee.   Do you like beef jerkey, I know some may be vegatarian, but where I live beef is a staple and beef jerkey abounds. If so do you it really thin, hard and crunchy or thicker and softer. (OK that borders on obscene)-   I do like beef jerky. I like them thicker and softer, but not uh, too soft., Kinda medium I guess.   Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work.   I do need to be warned, yes    Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay)   Nay. Well, I really never got into it, and when I did try… I just didn’t really jive.   I have a couple spare Doctor Who stickers. If my witchee is a fan, would they like a couple Doctor Who stickers in their package?   No thank ye.   Anyone love Buffy/Angel?   Yus preese. And anything else Joss Whedon.   How would you feel about gummies? Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires?   ^ all of the above.   How would you feel about a totally original Gela-skin for your laptop/iPod/phone? Stickers? Decals?   Iphone, and that sounds fun!   Since this is a Halloween round, what's your Creepy threshold? Are you a cartoon bats and smily pumpkins person or a skulls-and-bones the-dead-are-rising kind of person? Are your fairytales dark or Disney?   My fairytales are dark brothers Grimm. No spiders though, please.   Are your ears pierced, Witchee? Do you have any other piercings? Would you like to receive any items of jewelry for these piercings?   Yes to ears, no to other. And sure, if it is sterling silver or higher level gold. Nickle allergies suck.   How do you all feel about Whoopie Pies?   Yum      September 15th   interested in anything from Lush?   I’ve never tried Lush /bashful.   Do you blog? Would you like a header for your blog, a layout, etc?   I wish I had a nice blog. But I’m awful at updating /shrug.   Would you be interested in a handmade bookmark?   Yes! Yes yes yes.   do you like chex puppy chow or muddie buddies (ingredients: semi-sweet chocolate chips, PB, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, chex cereal)? would you want to get some from your witch / nacho witch?   Oh, sure!   How would you feel about receiving a Groupon deal for something in your local area? If there is anything you WOULDN'T like, mention that also.   Yes! Nothing sports related please. Spa, Salon, Restaurants, shows, are all awesome. Home services are not.   do you like real sugar skulls? Things with sugar skull designs?   I’ve never seen one but I hear they are lovely.   Who here adores meringue?   Mmmmm.   September 14th   What constitutes ultimate luxury to you? (go crazy!)   I’m kinda simple. A night/weekend/week whatever in a nice hotel, eating out at nice restaurants for every meal and maybe seeing a show or a local venue or historical place or wine tasting or summat. Being able to take my time, be luxurious, a hot tub or BIG bathub. So nice.   What do you really NOT want?   Kitschy things are not my fave, or small plastic things or knick knacks without a purpose. I already have a ton of clutter. I would also prefer nothing with spiders, parasitic creatures, licorice, grapefruit, or cannibalism.

10 under $10

Hey there! I thought it might be fun to make a list of less expensive things that I would absolutely love to have in case you're looking at the $60 necklaces on my Etsy wishlist and freaking out. (Dear witch, I absolutely do NOT expect you or even want you to buy me expensive stuff... everything on my Etsy wishlist is there for aesthetic ideas and well, just in case I win the lottery or something.) So here you go, 10 treats under $10:   1. A bar of Arcana's Filthy Viking soap   2. A bar of dark chocolate, such as Vosges Enchanted Mushroom Bar, which I've been dying to try but always wuss out on... (If you could find one of the miniature bars of that mushroom one, that'd be amazing. I only ever see it in the huge bar.)   3. A reusable coffee filter for the Melitta cone I use for coffee at work. Something like this.   4. A bubble bar from Lush or elsewhere. I've wanted to try Ice Hotel for years but just haven't gotten around to it... I also think this one, this one and this one from Etsy sellers all sound lovely.   5. Wide satin ribbon in a mocha-y color, 5 or 6 yds. I don't have a link for this but I'm guessing that if you buy it online you can find this for < $10... I'm looking for some to finish a baby quilt with.   6. Clear glass ornament balls for making Christmas ornaments with, any size. (This is our first Christmas at home instead of with my husband's family in eight! eight! eight! years! So we have no Christmas decorations and I want to make some...)   7. A yard (or half a yard) of fleece fabric in a fun print, like this or this or this. I'm going to make Christmas stockings for my kids (really, ask me what holiday I'm most excited about this year) and am on the lookout for funky fabrics that aren't just red or green or Santa Claus printed... I might make matching hats with the fabric that's left after stockings!   8. Some tasty chai, like Zhena's coconut chai, which I've had and love dearly, Good Earth's Original (maybe decaf?), which is a long time favorite, or this one with rose petals from Etsy which I haven't tried but which looks really interesting...   9. A roll of reflective tape for augmenting my bike & helmet with... I bike to work around 5 a.m. every morning and am always looking to improve my visibility and snazz up my bike while I'm at it.   10. Some silicone cupcake liners. Another one of those things I've been meaning to get around to but just haven't...

Things that caterpillars feed on would rock.   Do you decorate for Halloween? Is your decorating taste elegant, kitschy and fun, or scary? I try my best to.

SW Questions direct from my witch

Do you like any sorts of fairy tales, or just the Disney kind? All fairy tales! I have a battered copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales that I borrowed repeatedly from my grandparents when I was a child and they eventually gave to me because I had it most of the time anyway. I also love to read fairy tales from different cultures - the similarities across cultures are always intriguing. I love reinterpretations of fairy tales as well.   Are baked goods with Stevia in them ok to send to you, or absolutely no stevia/sugar/anything? Stevia is a-okay, but Truvia and PureVia are not, as they have erythritol (a sugar alcohol) in them, which kind of defeats the stevia-ness of it. Honey/maple syrup/agave are also nos - they won't kill me, but sugar and things that act like sugar on my system make me super-anxious/depressed and greatly impair my ability to get shit done.   Do you like Dia De Los Muertos/Sugar Skulls or anything like that? I like them alright, I just don't know what I would do with Dia de los Muertos stuff when it wasn't Halloween time. Though if it was on something else I collect, like a mask, it would fit into an existing collection.   It also appears your links for Etsy and BPAL wishlists are not working. The links for my witchee's BPAL and Etsy wishlists weren't working either! Here they are: BPAL Wishlist Etsy Wishlist Amazon Wishlist   Do you prefer the kind with the long tail, or the kind that fits like a beanie? Either way, as long as there aren't bobbles on it. I just have two beanies now (one teal and one black - it makes me look like a cat burglar), and I've never found one with a long tail that doesn't have a bobble on the end. Bobbles HURT if you sleep on them.

Something my witch should know about me

...I am a compulsive giver-away of things I love if I know someone else will love it too. My feelings toward BPAL is that as much as I love something, there will always be something else to love, so if I can make someone else happy then I will do it without hesitating.   This means I've given away rares and bottles I love more than anything, but in the end it was worth it. I'm actually not sure if this is a GOOD thing, but it's a big part of who I am.   ...having said that, I do *not* give away gifts. My feeling on gifts is, someone thought enough of me to gift me something, what kinda jerk would I be to give it away?   Basically what I am saying is that I am weird.

Answers to Fall 2011 Switch Witch questions

September 8th   From the Weenie Update....what are you most wanting to try? BPAL: Ghosts in love; Pumpkin princess; The Gorobble; Sprinklecake; and Halloween: Las Vegas.   Who's into nail polish? What colors/brands? Me! I like all sorts of colors, as long as they’re not neutral! I have polishes in blacks, browns, purples, blues, greens, yellows, oranges, reds, golds, silvers, and more. I’ll buy any brand if I like a color, and I love duochromes, glitters, and metallics. Some day if I do something really spectacular I’m going to reward myself with Clarins 230 – I want it so, but it’s just too expensive to justify without some super special reason.   Is there a quote (or lyric or part of a poem) that really resonates with you or is your favorite? I like "just be true to yourself; if it lands you in Hell, well, at least now you know" from the Alkaline Trio song "If You Had a Bad Time." And, not a quote per se, but I find myself saying “It is what it is” a lot. My mom has a tendency to get worked up and stressed out about everything, and I’m pretty much the opposite – don’t worry, don’t stress, because it is what it is.   Dream candle? Scent, color, type (tealight, votive, pillar, jar, etc.), throw... I love beeswax candles. I think my dream candle would be a cinnamon-scented beeswax pillar with a strong throw. I don’t care what color it is, although natural, red, or black would probably be my first choices.   Do you like knitted goodies? If so, what would you like and what colors? I have a friend that knits me a scarf every year for Xmas, so I’m totally covered on that, but I’d love some fingerless gloves to keep my hands warm while I work. (Right now I just have a cheap pair of cotton gloves with the fingers cut off, and they’re prone to unraveling. ) And if you’ll pardon me a jump from knitting to crocheting, I love, love, LOVE those cute crocheted amigurumi that people make! I have a bunch in my Etsy wishlist, and I’ve love just about anything from the Creepy Cute Crochet book!   Would you be interested in homemade edibles that are NOT sweets? Any specifics? I don’t cook or bake or any of that stuff, so I’m in awe of people who do and always excited to get homemade treats! I love homemade bread (I had a great chocolate chunk sourdough from Zingerman’s once that I’ve tried to duplicate using my bread maker without success, as the chocolate chunks all melted into the dough and made a chocolate flavored sourdough that was awful), cookies (snickerdoodles, oatmeal without raisins, peanut butter, and more), and cakes/cupcakes. Homemade maple syrup would be lovely, salsa would be very nice, and jellies could be nice, too, although I don’t use jelly very often. And I know they’re sweets, but I’d be ecstatic to get homemade fudge or maple candy!   What GC do you live in mortal terror of the lab discontinuing, but never get around to buying? After a couple rounds of discontinuations a while back I went ahead and ordered backups of all the GCs I used most. I try to order more Dorian every few orders or so, because I NEED to always have Dorian available. It would break my heart if that one were discontinued.   Yo, yarnies! Do you Ravelry? If so, who are you over thar? I’m not a yarnie, so I don’t Ravelry.   Social Media? Not at all. I’m way behind the times.   Do you have wishlists for non-BPAL e-tailers? And if so, could you provide a link or a list? Yes, I have a wishlist for Etsy and two for Amazon (one is for Amazon items and the other for non-Amazon items added with Amazon’s universal wishlist feature). They're all listed in my sig. (By the way, as long as we’re on the subject of the Amazon wishlists, I should probably mention that most of my notations for particular items were written to guide my brother in Xmas and birthday shopping, so if they seem overly picky, it’s just because he’d prefer to have all the help he can get when buying gifts! )   Witchee, do you use a PC or a Mac? Mac.   What is your favorite animal? I love bats and mice, rats, gerbils, and other rodents, and bunnies.   What are you going to be for Halloween? The responsible adult handing out candy at the front door. I’ll probably at least be wearing black nail polish and a vampire cape, though.   If you could have a piece of oil painting jewelry (pendant, pair of earrings, or ring) with absolutely anything painted on it, what would it be? (If you prefer wall art instead, same question as above.) Bats or a sea monster, probably.   How do you feel about nick-knacks? I’m trying to cut down because I hate dusting, but I still have assorted ones scattered around. If you find one you think is perfect, I’m sure I can find room for it!   What traditions (family, holiday, or otherwise) are important to you? I’m pretty close to my family (my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, and I all live within 20 minutes of each other), so we usually spend holidays together. One tradition I like is getting a puzzle for Xmas “from Santa” and then doing it together.   Do you like going to the movies? Sure, but I hardly ever do. The last movie I saw in the theater was Sucker Punch, because I had a friend staying over who wanted to see it. Maybe if they do some old or interesting horror movies next month I’ll go see something, but there’s nothing I’m dying to see right now.   What are your favorite restaurants? The Japanese restaurant down the street from me (Izakaya Sanpei). Whenever I’m out with friends I always vote for whatever Japanese restaurant is nearby, because I’m a bit obsessed with many things Japanese these days, so I want to try new Japanese things. Izakaya Sanpei is my favorite, though – it’s less than 5 minutes away and they have takoyaki!   Do you play any video games? Not anymore.   Do you like any anime? I LOVE anime! I stick pretty much to the fluffy girly stuff and the supernatural: Fruits Basket, Ouran High School Host Club, Maid Sama, Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok, Night Walker, Pet Shop of Horrors, Hellsing, Black Butler, etc. I currently have Black Blood Brothers, Chrono Crusade, and the second volume of Maid Sama sitting on my tv cabinet waiting to be watched. I’d like to see Special A, but I’m waiting for the price to come down at Amazon before I buy.   Do you have an E-reader/iPad/something similar that you need a cover/case for? Nope.   how much do you like jewelry? like, if you were to get a shit ton of it during the round, how excited would you be? I like jewelry, and I love chain maille. I don’t wear earrings, but necklaces and bracelets are good. I don’t need a shit ton, though, because I used to make jewelry for myself, and the same friend who knits me scarves also makes me jewelry most every year. But if you make jewelry also, a special little piece or two would be most welcome!   How would you like to receive some of your Witch's favorite recipes, tailored to your likes/dietary restrictions? And specific wants? I don’t cook. I don’t do it well, and I don’t enjoy it, so recipes are pretty much wasted on me, unless they’re super simple, use just the most basic of ingredients, and don’t require any special tools or talents beyond what you’d use to boil water or heat something up in the oven. I’m pretty pathetic in the kitchen. That said, if you have really super simple recipes or crock pot recipes, I’m game to see them.   Do you need any boxes to store your smellies in? What would you store in said hypothetical box--imps, bottles, supplies, all of the above? My bottles are all well-housed, but my imps would love a nice ammo-type box to reside in!   Muppets: yea or nay? Nay.   Do you have an affinity for Calvin and Hobbes, Peanuts, The Far Side, and other comic strips? If so, which is your favorite? Not really. I liked Calvin and Hobbes, but I always think of that as more my brother’s comic than mine.   Favorite Mythological Creature?: Sea monsters! But I hope they’re not all mythological – I really really want the Loch Ness monster to be real!   Do you like hair things barrettes, headbands, flowers Expanding on the hair question - does anyone like those flower clips for the hair that are big right now?? My hair is so fine that most hair things don’t stay. Barrettes slide right out after not much time at all, and headbands look silly on me. The only thing I use is elastic bands for pony-tails, and I have a million of those.     September 9th   Do you like to burn incense? If so, what are your favorite kinds...sticks? cones? resins? What are your favorite scents? I like candles better, but I do burn incense on occasion, primarily sticks. I’ve never used resins, but I’d be willing to give them a try. My favorite scents are spicy ones – cinnamon, clove, that sort of thing. Citrus can be good too, but I find a lot of floral ones just too overpowering and headache-inducing.       Harry Potter - a fan? If so, what house are you? Not at all. Never read the books, never watched the movies, never had any desire to do either.   If you were to receive a gift card, what places would you like to get one from? Amazon is always good. Sephora would be a thrilling treat. Bunny Butt Apothecary or Soap Box Company would be great too (since my brother has completely ignored their presence on my wishlist every year).   Is there a particular myth/folktale/legend/fairytale/godstory that you're drawn to? I love mythology. I was originally drawn most to Greek and Roman mythology, but I love them all. I’d especially like to learn more Near Eastern mythology and Japanese mythology.   If you RP, tabletop, forum, or otherwise... Do you have any original characters you'd like to see art of? If so, please give information! Even if it's a link to a web page or a profile or picture! I don’t RP.   If you could see anything, what would it be? Can be a person, an event, a landmark or monument, an object, etc. And it doesn't have to be on this planet, or in this time period, or in this reality! There’s so many possibilities (seeing Poe or Wilde in person rank high among them), but eventually I realized that I’d most like to see the Loch Ness monster. I don’t care at all about UFOs or aliens, Bigfoots or yetis, chupacabras or Jersey Devils, but sea or lake monsters, especially Nessie…. My world needs those!   When you are having a really rough day, what do you like to do/have to make it a little brighter? Sleep, junk food, and mindless tv or cute fluffy anime generally works for me.   What are your thoughts on comics? Any you like? Any you have been wanting to try? Favorite characters? I like comics, I guess. I love the Punisher and I collected the comic books, TPBs, and merchandise (t-shirts, pins, stickers, etc.) obsessively for a couple of years. I’m not so obsessed now, but it’d be nice to get caught up on the series again. I also read Magdalena, Vampi, and Witchblade to varying degrees. Web-comic wise, I enjoy Orneryboy and Chopping Block.   Are you musical? Do you play an instrument, and if so, what? If not, what do you wish you could play or do? I wish I were, but I’m not. I have no sense of rhythm or pace. I took guitar lessons for a few years because I wanted an electric guitar, but never got any good at it. I took piano lessons for several years because my parents wanted me to, but again, I never got particularly good at it, and I never enjoyed it that much. I wish I could play guitar and bass guitar, but I simply don’t have the musical ability or the motivation to put in the work it would take to get to any sort of basically decent level.     Does anyone garden? And if you do, what do you grow? If not, would a starter garden kit be something you'd be interested in? I’m afraid that I have a black thumb. I wish I had the talent and lack of laziness required to garden, but I simply don’t. Anything that lives with me or grows in my yard has to be extremely hardy, because I have a “survival of the fittest” mentality when it comes to plants.   Do you decorate for Halloween? Is your decorating taste elegant, kitschy and fun, or scary? I don’t decorate as much as I’d like, but I have three large boxes full of Halloween decorations. It’s much more a matter of not taking the time than not having the decorations available. I have a lot of Halloween-type stuff hanging around as everyday decorations, though. I have bats everywhere, for instance. I’d say my decorating taste veers slightly more to the elegant, just because I expect my decorations to do double-duty and stick around past Halloween. I also like vintage Halloween stuff, too.   Witchee, do you have any symbols or totems that have special meaning for you? I don’t really have any that have special meaning, but I do like bats, mice, bunnies, maneki neko / lucky cats, ravens and crows, sea monsters, frog princes (frogs wearing crowns, basically) and Hello Kitty. And really, I like any cute depictions of animals.   Is anyone fond of programs like Adopt a Tree/Highway/Library/Manatee/Acre of Rainforest/etc? I loved Fright’s Adopt-A-Bat suggestion! I would totally adopt Mekki – I love hoary bats! I adopted one from the Organisation for Bat Conservation once, but when I saw the OCB director at a presentation and asked about "my" bat, I was told that he had died earlier that year. Bat Conservation International has an adopt-a-bat program too, but they send you a stuffed bat when you adopt, and I don’t need any of their stuffed bats. It’d be nice to sponsor a rabbit at a local shelter, too.     September 10th   What #1 actor, director, author and/or musician are you obsessed with? I don’t have a #1. I get obsessed way too often to pick just one!   are you interested in anything from the Villainness Bad Apples update? Apple’s not really my thing, but I wouldn’t turn down anything from Villainess.   If you have a pet, would he/she/they like to receive a treat or a toy as a gift? Does your pet have any dietary restrictions or other preferences w.r.t. said treat? I don’t have a pet. I bunny-sit for my parents’ bunny sometimes and see her a lot, but my parents are incredibly picky about what they feed her, and she really doesn’t seem to understand toys. (Makes it extremely difficult for me to Xmas shop for her!)   What are your top three "I want to try them but I think I'll never get to try them" (or, "I've tried them and I want moar moar moar, but I don't think I'll ever get any") scents/bath oils/sprays? I guess maybe Marshmallow Poof, Red Moon ’07, and Raven Moon. There’s probably a ton that I would want if I got to try them, but I try not to worry about what I can’t get. I want to try Yuki-Onna and Tanuki just because of the names, but I’m hoping I can manage to get hold of those eventually if I just put some effort into looking.   Is there a particular artist and piece that you would like a print of? If so, what is your max size that you could spare on your walls? I like Charles Addams’ creepy art, Pierre et Gilles’ work (but if I’m going to put it on my walls it can’t be any of their stuff with nudity!), and some of Nina Friday’s art (on my Etsy wishlist). Unfortunately, Friday’s stuff is pretty expensive, and I’ve not really seen any Addams or Pierre et Gilles prints around. I do have a very large poster of one of Pierre et Gilles’ painting featuring Andy Bell and Vince Clarke, purchased for me at an Erasure concert by a friend, but I’ve never seen any other posters or prints by them available, just postcards.   If you are in to beauty and makeup related stuff, what kind of stuff do you like? What is your skintone and hair color? Are there any beauty products you've wanted to try but just never purchase? I like eyeliners and eyeshadows best. I buy a lot of Urban Decay eyeliners. I’d really like to try Fyrinnae’s Pixie Epoxy and eyeshadows, but I’ve never gotten around to purchasing them. I do have a Sephora wishlist with some stuff on it, so I’ll try to transfer those over to my New Amazon Wishlist soon so that all my wishes are in one place. I also love nail polishes – I’ll buy any brand, and the more duochrome, metallic, or glittery the better! My skintone is light, and my hair color is a brown heavily highlighted to appear more golden blonde than brown.     Do you like coffee or tea? Would you be interested in trying some different types? I don’t drink coffee ever. I’d be happy to try any teas, but I’ve never had a rooibos that I really liked.   Are there any CDs/Albums you've been wanting but haven't bought yet? What format do you prefer? (i.e. mp3, actual cd, record, etc) They’re on my Amazon wishlist! I prefer actual CDs and records, but I can deal with mp3s, too.   Are you going away for any part of this round? Not for any longer than a weekend, if at all.   Would you like to receive a mix-CD from your Witch? Sure! But please, no country or rap – I just don’t enjoy those genres at all.   If your witch were going somewhere on a vacation during the round, would you want a little souvenir? If my Witch sees something he or she’d like to send me, then I’d be happy to get it!   Do you enjoy any outdoor activities? Do you have a favorite form of "exercise"? Not really. I like to go on walks through the woods in the fall, and I just had a great time walking in the lower Falls at Tahquamenon last month, but I’m not much of an outdoor person. I like to roller skate and ice skate, but I hardly ever do. I’m about the laziest person ever.   Any witchee's with a ravelry account have any favourited patterns that cost money that would be a welcome gift? Don’t have an account.   Do you work/study at a desk and enjoy interesting or cute office supplies? Sure!   Witchee, are you a fan of musicals? If so, which ones? Not at all.   September 11th   I am fond of the thrift. Do you mind lightly used goods? Please be specific! For instance, I'm a little squicked by used clothing, but I don't mind any other used goods (i.e. books, glassware, games, DVDs, whatever.) No used clothing, please, but gently used books, board games, CDs, or DVDs are all fine. Used glassware is fine too; in fact, I bought my most recent tea cup from an antique store.   Do you have an Etsy shop? Do you know of any Etsy shops that are Switch Witch friendly? I don’t have an Etsy shop, but I have quite an Etsy wishlist! The link is in my sig.   Would a gift or a postcard from Disneyland make you squee with delight or puke into your mail box? I like Disney’s Haunted Mansion and Eeyore.   What are your favorite types of Halloween candy? Reese’s peanut butter pumpkins and Milk Maid’s evilly addictive caramel apple candy corn. While not specifically Halloween candy, I always buy Sweettarts or Pixie Stix for Halloween in addition to the usual candy bars in case I get any trick-or-treaters who can’t have chocolate, and I always hope that there’ll be plenty of left-overs, because I love both.   Do you prefer soap or shower gel? Please give examples of your favorite scents or brands. Definitely soap. Favorite brands are Haunt, Bunny Butt Apothecary, and Villainess. The BPTP ones would probably be on the list too, if they weren’t too pricey for me. I like spicy scents (cinnamon, clove, etc.) and mint scents most.   How do you like your chocolate? For example with nuts, mint, peanut butter, caramel? I like my chocolate plain, with peanuts, mint, or caramel. I love Reese’s holiday peanut butter stuff (pumpkins, eggs, trees), but that’s really the only peanut butter I like in my chocolate. I really like chocolate with coconut, too. Fannie May used to have delicious chocolate coconut squares that I loved, but they don’t seem to sell them anymore. I also love Fannie May’s dark chocolate lemon creams, their dark chocolate caramels, and their dark chocolate vanilla creams. (Despite all those dark favorites, I really like milk chocolate best!) I really wish I had a Fannie May store nearby instead of having to resort to mail order a couple of times a year!   Beads! Do you use them? Would you want some? What sorts of beads do you like? I have a lunchbox full of beads that I bought and then never used, so more beads is probably not a good idea.   Anyone here like caramels? Sea salted caramels?!?! Yes! A million yeses!   Would you like a hand dyed or hand painted scarf or wrap or other item? If so, what colors/designs/fabrics do you like? I’ve always wanted to make a hand dyed silk scarf, but I’m not that artistic. If you are, I’d love one! Good color combos are red/black, red/orange/yellow, or purple/blue/green. Individually, I like lime, magenta, black, or red best.   This was a question before, but does anyone here like stones? Just pretty polished stones for use in whatever purposes? Yes! Every time I go to my local metaphysical store I end up walking out with some polished stones, because I just can’t resist the pretty!   And another question; anyone like anything in particular from Think Geek? I’ve never really looked. If I end up looking and seeing anything that I love, I’ll add it to my Amazon wishlist.   Pinterest, do you have boards you want to share or are you following anyone with great boards you want to share? Never heard of it.     September 12th   Would you like to receive e-books? And if so, in what format? No, thank you. I’m woefully behind the times and I only read print books.   If you have kids, would you be interested in getting things for them? And if so, what are they interested and what sizes are the wearing now? I’m happily childfree.   Would you be interested in a felted handbag? Do any of these styles appeal to you? http://tinyurl.com/3o2epzl (there's at least one guy-friendly style, too!) I like #10 best, followed by #15, #13, and #2. #12 is adorable, but I don’t use backpacks.   Are there are patterns, motifs, etc that you especially like? I like simple, not too busy patterns. Motifs I like include bats, mice and other rodents, bunnies, maneki neko / lucky cats, Hello Kitty, cute skulls, and more. If it’s a cute animal or Halloween-y type thing, I’ll probably really like it.   If you're a tea drinker, is there any specific tea you would like to receive, not just the kind/flavor but also the type/packing--i.e., tea bags, loose tea, compressed, etc? Pretty much anything’s fine with me, although I’m not a fan of rooibos. I’ve never had compressed tea, but I can do either tea bags or loose tea. I just bought some matcha and a matcha whisk to make it, so I’m pretty much set to be able to handle most tea types you might want to send me!   September 13th   How would you feel about kitchen towels and other similar household objects, if they are pretty or a souvenir? I have more kitchen towels than I ever use, almost all of them decorative, but if you find something that you think I’ll love, I’ll make room in the linen closet for it.   How did you dress up for your last party or compulsory-formal-dress occasion? I had to buy a dress for my brother’s wedding two years ago. I am not a formal dress type of person, but I eventually found a below-the-knee purple dress with a v-neck that didn’t look too terrible on me.   Do you enjoy puzzles/riddles? (Cryptograms, Sudoku, Crossword, Jigsaw, etc) I like word searches, especially if the word themes are cool. I only like crosswords if they’re easy. Puzzles are great – I try to buy one to give to my family at Xmas every year for us to do together, and I also have a puzzle stash of my own. I have a tropical beach one that I like to do when I’m thoroughly sick of winter, for instance. I even have some super simple children’s puzzles that I bought just because the pictures were of cute animals.   Witchee, would you be interested in having a special tea cup/coffee mug/glass to drink out of? Yes! I would love a special tea cup! I have a little collection of sets inherited from my grandmothers and singletons of cups and saucers that I’ve acquired for myself over the years. I like having a variety of cups from which to choose.       September 14th   Can you sum yourself (whether it be personality, life's goals, ethics, whatever) in 10 words or less? Not really. The closest I came was: Enjoy life while it lasts and don’t be mean. Or more realistically, Enjoy life while it lasts; try not to be mean. (And when I say “mean”, I mean not just the “unkind” definition, but also the “petty” and “miserly”/”stingy” senses of the word.) And as I mentioned earlier, I mainly operate under the philosophy of “It is what it is.”   How about little bottles of booze? Ya wanna? What kind? Sure! But I have at least a dozen already, so don’t feel obliged. If you could find a little bottle of Jameson, though, that’d be nice! None of the liquor stores around here have any. I also like fun flavored boozes like mint and fruit and such.   What are your views on fudge and brownies? (Also, if you live in a warm place, where the fudge might melt, that'd be helpful to know. Or, if you're diabetic and fudge is death, that'd be useful to know, too.) Fudge is love. Fudge is the best. I got fudge from LunaDragonGirl as a PIF once, and it was so very wonderful!   Also, what about mochi? Love it, hate it, baffled by it? I like mochi ice cream and I’ve had daifuku a couple of times and enjoyed it. I’m a little obsessed with Japanese things lately, so I’d be excited to get mochi from my Witch!   Anything from the update ya'll are liking? BPTP UPDATE Port-au-Prince and Sugar Skull soaps; and although I’d doubt I’d ever use an entire bottle of any of them, I’d like to try just a little bit each of the Spun Sugar Spectre bath oil; the Tears of the Seraphim, Eye of Newt, and Howlet’s Wing bath brews; and the Frankincense Clove and Snake Oil hair glosses.   Does anyone like kimchi? I’ve never had it, but it really doesn’t sound like something I’d enjoy.   Would you be interested in a sample box(from somewhere like Birchbox or loosebutton)? Could be fun, I suppose, but I’m not sure how much of the stuff I’d actually use.   You have to place a Lab and Trading Post order. Right fuckin' now. No spending limits. What do you buy? One of everything! And multiples of Dorian so I can scent every room in my house with it and then bathe in it.   Paintbox Soapworks - anything you're interested in, in general or from the latest update? I haven’t really looked at it, but if I do and see something I really like, I’ll add it to my Amazon wishlist. Or if you’re a huge Paintbox Soapworks fan yourself and think you know something of theirs that would be perfect for me, I’m open to surprises!   Do you guys have any sports that you follow obsessively? How about favorite teams and/or athletes Nope, I hate sports.   How do you feel about notebooks/journals/stationery? Anything you need or particularly like? I have more than I need, but that never stops me from buying them! I just bought one last week because it had cute illustrations of owls, squirrels, bunnies, and birds along the bottoms of each page. I like mine lined, not blank.   Does confetti/glitter make you angry or fill you with glee? Glee! Especially the glitter!   Fabulous witches and witchees, perhaps you all could note of you've received MeiLin's goodies? Or if you want? I’ve never received any. I wouldn’t mind getting the crockpot recipes one, or any of her fiction.   How do you feel about stuffed animals/plushies/general soft, cuddly things? If you like them, what kind of animals would you be interested in? As with the notebooks, etc., I have more than I need, but that never stops me from getting more. In fact, I just picked up a little Ty Halloween bat at the grocery store last night, because I just couldn’t resist the cuteness. I like mice and bats primarily. You can also check out my Etsy wishlist to get an idea of what I find cute.   how interested would you be on somewhat personalized bottle cap labels? Like these that I did? All my bottle caps are already labeled.   When you're miserably sick (*sniffle, cough!*) what are the things that comfort you the most? Sleep. Sleep makes everything better. Sympathy from my family also helps, especially if they come over with food or to help me out around the house.   What constitutes ultimate luxury to you? (go crazy!) Having enough money that I never have to work again. Having a personal chef to cook for me, because I hate to cook and so my diet is terribly unhealthy. Being able to travel the world. Being able to sleep in as late as I want!   What do you really NOT want? Anything banana scented or flavored.       September 15th   Interested in anything from Lush? Not really. I prefer to get my soaps and such from independent sellers rather than a big chain.   Do you blog? Would you like a header for your blog, a layout, etc? Nope. I’m so far behind the times!   Would you be interested in a handmade bookmark? Sure!   do you like chex puppy chow or muddie buddies (ingredients: semi-sweet chocolate chips, PB, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, chex cereal)? would you want to get some from your witch / nacho witch? Sorry, I don’t really like chex. But if it was made with something like chow mein noodles or pretzels, then that would be a different story!   How would you feel about receiving a Groupon deal for something in your local area? If there is anything you WOULDN'T like, mention that also. I don’t use Groupon – it’s a mystery to me.       September 16th   Are you more prone to order out or cook at home? Would you be interested in cookbooks, kitchen utensils, and the like? If so, anything specific? If I could afford it, I would eat out every day, but as it is, I almost never do. Unfortunately, I’m bad at cooking and I don’t enjoy it at all, so I live mostly on pre-packaged and microwavable foods, which I know are terrible for me. Despite my not cooking, I am pretty well stocked up on all kitchen utensils, thanks to hand-me-downs from my family.   New question: How do you feel about maple syrup? Love REAL maple syrup! I won’t use the fake stuff anymore, now that I’ve experienced the real thing. I also love the maple sugar candy that people make. I have some maple cream in my refrigerator right now, too – when I was vacationing in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula we stumbled across a farmers market where someone was selling maple products, and one of them was this maple cream stuff. Apparently it’s good for spreading on toast or dipping pretzels in or whatever, but I’ve been just eating it straight by the small spoonful.   How do people feel about little pocket shrines, maybe something inspirational/motivational to keep in their purses/backpacks/whatever? (Like these: http://www.art-shrin...cketshrines.htm) My purse is already pretty full; I really don’t need another thing to carry around in it.   Do you like Star Wars? Original Trilogy? Prequels? Spin-offs? Favorite characters? I liked Star Wars just fine when I saw the original trilogy in the theater, and I loved Han Solo. I haven’t seen most of the prequels or spin-offs, and when I saw Star Wars again in college, I didn’t think it had held up to my memories of it.   Do you like beef jerkey, I know some may be vegatarian, but where I live beef is a staple and beef jerkey abounds. If so do you it really thin, hard and crunchy or thicker and softer. (OK that borders on obscene)- I suppose the thicker and softer jerky, because I like hunter’s sausage types of stuff. I’d much prefer to stick to just beef; no venison or other critter.   Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work. I can take it or leave it, but please do warn first if it’s racy.   Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay) Semi-yay? I started watching obsessively during Martha Jones’ season, then backtracked to watch the seasons with Rose, watched most of the season after Martha, then pretty much dropped off with the 11th Doctor. I’ve seen a few of the new ones, but they just haven’t grabbed me, especially as I’m not a fan of Amy Pond or River Song. The 10th Doctor is my Doctor, and Martha Jones my favorite Companion.   I have a couple spare Doctor Who stickers. If my witchee is a fan, would they like a couple Doctor Who stickers in their package? I don’t think I’m that big a fan – better that they go to people who would appreciate them more!   Anyone love Buffy/Angel? Liked Buffy, later seasons of Angel were ok, loved Spike!   How would you feel about gummies? Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires? I don’t really like the texture of gummies.   How would you feel about a totally original Gela-skin for your laptop/iPod/phone? Stickers? Decals? Not something I would use.   Since this is a Halloween round, what's your Creepy threshold? Are you a cartoon bats and smily pumpkins person or a skulls-and-bones the-dead-are-rising kind of person? Are your fairytales dark or Disney? I can handle as creepy or as cute as you want to go! I read the original super-dark versions of the Grimm’s fairy tales when I was young (well, until my mom read a couple of them, was horrified that I was reading them, and threw the book out) and I get a kick out of the gory makeup that people do for horror movies and haunted houses, but I also like cute bats and skulls and ghosts and pumpkins and such.   Are your ears pierced, Witchee? Do you have any other piercings? Would you like to receive any items of jewelry for these piercings? No piercings. I’m a coward. I love multiple piercings on other people, but I’m not that brave.     How do you all feel about Whoopie Pies? Not my thing.   September 17th   Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now? Any that I’m looking for are in my Amazon wishlist.   Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards? Sure, I’m always happy to get mail that’s not addressed to “Occupant”!   Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall? Yes! I’m going to see Motion City Soundtrack play two nights in a row this month – they’re playing all four of their albums in their entirety. I’m so excited! I’m really hoping to be able to make it to the Senses Fail show in November, too.   Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters? Not at all, sorry.

ENDLESS 2011 SWITCH WITCH Q&A

October 3rd   Does anyone else like collector Barbies? not especially   What small everyday items would you like, that you keep forgetting to get? a honey dipper. straws. Those things you use to hang pictures without nails.   Tarot Not really   Tell me about something you like, and why you like it. I like wine. It tastes good and makes me feel happy when I drink it. LOL.   If you're the MMU type of Witchee, what Geek Chic Cosmetics tickle your fancy? I don't know what this means.   Would any witchees be interested inQuinn Popcorn? OMG yes. Maple and sea salt. yes.   October 2nd   Who likes silly items from Archie McPhee??? Me! Bacon candy. LOL.   Nocturne Alchemy's NAlloween Pt. 2 update is live here! (And for a few days, last month's update too.) What do you want? I have to go look.   What are you drooling over from the Sock Dreams Halloween stuff? I mostly just like the regular stuff.   Luck charms? small smooth rocks   Does anyone want anything from... here...? no link.   For those of you that like candles, do you like stuff from Yankee Candle? And if you had to choose, tarts or candles? I don't have a tartwarmer at the moment. I had one at school but it didn't survive the move. I do like tarts better, though. I need to get a new one.   Would you be interested in getting a custom necklace fromhere? again with the no link.   Is there a movie you want so badly that you don’t own now? I don't think so.   Is there a song on Itunes that you haven’t downloaded yet? Lots.   Is there a rare book you’ve always wanted? No   Is there anything you want to buy yourself but have been too embarrassed (R rated or pg)? I don't think so.   Have you seen the Lush holiday update? Do you like the look of anything from there? Candy Mountain! Really, any bath product that doesn't have cinnamon or almond oil   if you were my witchee, would you want some of my hot nuts my candied nuts my nuts covered in butter and brown sugar candied walnuts? Sure! I love candied walnuts.     October 1st   Is there anything you either didn't like or had never heard of that you're now curious to try thanks to the discussion in this thread? I am sure there is.   Reveal? It's okay either way. I'd like to know because I'm the curious sort but as long as I can say thank you I'm okay with the mystery.   Would you be interested in the #occupywallstreet scent? So much.   Do Paintbox Soapworks' Goat's Milk Hand and Body Creams sound like something you'd like to try? Sure.   September 30th   Is there a magazine that you DON'T read because you can't find it near you, but wish you could? No. I used to feel this way about Los Angeles magazine but now I have a digital subscription.   Describe your sense of humour. I'm sort of overly analytical and I don't like anything where people get hurt (feelings or physically). I do laugh a lot, but I feel like I'm viewed as humourless a lot of the time.   Do you like reusable grocery bags? If so, do you like the kind that fold up (ie Chico Bags?) Yes!   I'm about to make an order from Sephora (nothing off of my wishlist, witch, so don't worry about that). Is there anything for you that you would like to accompany my order, if you're my witchee? Anything that smells like cake. And all the nail polishes.   Edited to add: I thought of something that's not on the list yet that I'd like -- tiny cookie cutters.   Witchee, would you like anything from this particular Haunt update? oh my... claw and cobblestone oil and polish; witcheree solid; kemet soak; cider mill polish; GOLDEN PUMPKIN sugar polish; caramel popcorn lust***; winchester soap;   Who's interested in Halloween: Montreal? I am!   You get a package in the mail containing 3 things you have really wanted more than anything else you've mentioned so far in this thread. (they are all reasonably priced of course! ~$20 or less apiece). What are they? More than things I've already mentioned? I can't think of anything else.   how do you feel about hemp? jewelry, soap, etc? love hemp anklets and bracelets, don't like the smell of hemp but like hemp products (soap, shampoos, lotions) as long as they are scented   September 29th   What kind of purse do you prefer? Leather, cloth? over the shoulder or crossbody, or something that can do either? Do you like bold bright prints with fun things, or monochrome, solid colours? over the shoulder that can do cross body if desired. I like prints but am pretty specific about them. I like leather or washable cloth, but I hate quilted stuff (like vera bradley)   julep maven monthly boxes: never heard of it Your favorite restaurant or type of food to eat out. Would you use a restaurant.com voucher? Groupon? yes -- local favourites are The Roxy, Becketts, Fratellos; favourite chains Melting Pot, HuHot Like commercial socks?   What kind of bear is best? Teddy? Is anyone interested in reading The Night Circus? Never heard of it Hershey's Pumpkin Spice kisses? Unfortunately, no. I wanted to love these, but no.   Who here likes Stephanie Pui-Min Law's artwork? Never heard of her   Do you drink wine? YES   Is it just me who is nervous at revealing herself to her witchee, and finding out who her witch is?! Not just you!   Witches, did you lament NOT getting one of the condom case/imp cases that got released with the courtesan series??? No, not really   I recently saw candy corn in non-candy corn flavors like CHOCOLATE and CARAMEL APPLE. It's not a fancy brand, I just saw it in the drugstore, but who here would like something like that? Sure, I love candy corn   September 28th   JONES SODA CO has LE soda packs for The Guild, Buffy, D&D, So Cute, etc. Would you be interested in these, Witchee? Not really   It'sBanned Books Week! Are there any books on the list you'd be interested in checking out? I did a thing a few years back where I read the top 100 banned or questioned books and wrote about it, but I lost what I wrote. It was fun. So many of them were really, really tame.   I have just been enlightened to THESE. Are these flavors relevant to your interests? Well, this is useless without the link.     September 27th   What is something people are always surprised to learn about you? That I'm an atheist.   So who else watched Babylon 5? Not I.   If you had to decide what your stripper name was, what would it be? Honey Britches LOL.   Sooooo Witchees, have you ever taken that particular personality test? If so, are you an Analytical, a Driver, an Expressive or an Amiable? I haven't taken that one, I guess. I don't know.   Is anyone else afraid of or creepy out by dummies/puppets/Muppets/etc? Other things you're squicked/freaked by that's best left by the wayside? I don't love puppets but I'm not freaked out by them. I'm emetophobic but I think it is a given not to mail me vomit   what level of contact were you hoping for? My witch is awesome! I was hoping for high contact and I'm totally getting it.   Are there any local museums/attractions you keep never getting around to going to? Nope.   September 26th   Is there any kind of international candy you love or would like to try? I want to try the Crunchie bar.

My kid collects "squishies" -- little rubber animals that are filled with sand or plastic beads   Is there any cheesy/non-cheesy Canadian stuff you'd be interested in? Not off the top of my head   If you were to go here and create your very own chocolate bar, what might it have in it? if this refers to http://www.chocomize.com/ then some combination of milk chocolate, salt, corn flakes, hazelnuts, candy corn, bacon, carmalized rice krispies, and mango   Is there anything you're wanting from LPMP? I don't know what that is.   say you stumbled into Camp Half Blood (or whatever the Roman camp ends up being named <bounces in anticipation>), which god claims you? ooh, athena   September 25th   Stuff you've been meaning to do: learn to knit. make a quilt. alter t shirts. find a pattern for a simple baby dress and make a bunch of dresses for my daughter.   Would you be interested in regional jams, jellies, or other preserves? no, I don't like jams or jellies very much   Do you have any bedtime rituals? Is there any particular product you have to apply or a certain shirt you wear or an act you perform to get you in the "bedtime" mood? I nurse the baby and read a book.

Design, material, additional functionality/features like pockets or lights or secret hidey-holes? I'd love a kindle cover. I like crazy patterned materials with bright colours, or natural colours. I would like it to be slim so no extras.   Would you like a photo collage based around your interests/favorite colors/favorite themes? Not particularly.   If you're crafty, are you interested in spoonfeather? And if so, what things there delight your eyes? I can't figure out what this is.   Colors!

I can't tolerate any of them anymore.   If your witch was the practical type and wanted to include one or more of your everyday essentials, what would those include? I'm talking about the bath products, lotions, face lotions, teas, food, etc that you really use every day. I'm always looking for nonmint, non cinnamon toothpaste. Or anything for my single cup coffee maker (Keurig)   Jane Austen .. Yay or Nay? Nay. Instant sleep for me.   I put up quotes I love in my office and studio to get me going, They range from goofy to sarcastic to inspirational... Are you interested in a hand painted quote? Do you have one in mind, or a topic in mind? I like quotes. I can't grab one from my brain at the moment, though   Do you like period or period-styled paraphernalia? Stuff like postcards, notecards, jewelry, office supplies, what-have-you? Sure   If you like manga, comics, and/or graphic novels, what is it about them that you like, in general? The story, the art/style, etc? I'm not really a fan.   If you could choose a Smack, what would it have in it? My first one was 2 incense, dirt, and chocolate. I was thinking about trying all the really sweet ones: marshmallow, buttercream cupcake, vanilla bean... and something else. I am also curious about suede (they don't come mixed up)   if you could have a salon scent made, based on any artwork(s) what would it be? This is hard, because what i want to smell like and my favourie art pieces are so different. I think Saturn Consuming his Children would make an interesting scent, but I wouldn't want to wear it. LOL.   Are you scientifically curious and/or process-oriented? Would you like a project-type gift that allowed you do do something like make soap from scratch, take and (nontoxic-ly) develop photographs using a pinhole camera, use plant dyes on yarn or fabric, etc.? I'd love a project. I currently have bath bombs and hair conditioner projects in the works. I've done soap and lip balm inthe past too.   What's 'your' song/your theme song? I don't think I have one. If I did, maybe 3 little birds.   What would be your superpower? can it be teleporting?   Witchee, would you like a gently used BPAL tshirt? Yes.   Do you like homemade snack mixes?

If you say "Sure, I'd love some!" what kinds of things do you like/not like in those kinds of snacks, ie coconut flakes, raisins, certain nuts (allergies??), candy, etc. Give us your list of DO's and DON'Ts! yes. i am allergic to almonds, hate coconut, hate banana. hate fennel, hate onions, like spicy things, honey things, crunchy things. love dried fruit. love chex mix/nuts and bolts.   Do you like charm bracelets? If you had a bracelet, what sort of charms would you want on it? Favorite hobbies, symbols, whatever? yes. i love peace symbols, doves, carrots, elephants, turtles, books, i'm easy.   September 20th   Would you like any ecotools makeup brushes? They're kinda one of my favorite things ever, and they're animal-friendly and the handles are bamboo. And to top it all off, they work really well for applying makeup. Yes, I would love a medium sized cheek blusher kind of brush.   Do you like Legos? Especially mini-fig key chains, Lego block keychains, small Lego sets, etc? Yes.   Since the previous question about "what would you buy from the Lab if you had unlimited funds, etc" left WAY too much to the imagination with no limitations (my answer was pretty much BUY ALL THE THINGS!), what would you do if you found a $50 bill on the ground and a nagging voice in the back of your mind told you that you HAD to spend it on BPAL or else face Death. Also, say they had free shipping (LOL) so don't factor that in. What would you get? And spend it all! Or as close to $50 as you can get. Snake Oil Hair Gloss OR Honey Hair Gloss and TKO v3 from the Etsy shop. Probably that.   Are there any characters that you love or identify with? TinkerBell, but not the new pixie hollow tinkerbell. the old tinkerbell, who bit Peter Pan and called him an ass.   A question! If you are crafty, what's your personal art style? I'm not talking just about what art you like to look at, but what kind of art do you like creating? Do you have a "process" while you're creating beauty? Hmmm. Not sure about a style, though I am sure I have one to others. My process is very physical -- I start doing and let it happen, messing with things and seeing how they turn out, rather than starting with a finished product in mind.   Are there any Arcana Weenies that you MUST HAVE? EVERYTHING. But especially: Reign in Hell Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Serve in Heaven Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Ghost Pumpkin Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Caffeinated Death Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Hobbedy’s Lantern Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Kincardine Maiden Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): . Song of Songs: Comfort Me With Apples Little Ghoulie Perfume Oil (Limited Edition): Which is, well, almost everything. I might love Arcana's Halloween update as much if not more than BPAL's.   So what say you? IS an "unexpected" visit/in-person witching OK? Mostly okay, as long as you don't expect to come into my house.     September 19th   What strange misc. items would you love to receive that you just haven't gotten for yourself?: I was just thinking about this at Target today, but I'll be damned if I can remember what provoked the thought.   How do you feel about franken polish? Are you okay with all chemicals, or would you prefer 3 free? Would you want glitter or holographic glitter? What colors would interest you? I'm good with all of it. I feel like I should be picky but I'm just not.   Dear witchee, how do you feel about lip balm? Favorite style (twist up tube, pot, tube with wand, etc.)? Favorite flavors? Flavors to avoid? Favorite brand? Do you need more right now or are you set? Are you one of those people who could never have enough lip balm even though you have a bowl on your dresser overflowing with them and 10 in your purse and an order for more on the way? Twist, hate burny things like cinnamon or clove, am allergic to almond oil, love haunt, would like to try their honey lust or sweet cream lust from the regular collection (all the stuff I have tried is from last year's halloween)   Would you be interested in getting fountain pen inks or art supplies via JetPens and or DickBlick? (I know I have a wishlist on JetPens and just love using fountain pens in my artwork) Not particularly   -For those interested in watercolors, how would you feel about getting a palette filled with paint from my watercolor tubes but not getting the paint tube itself? (kind of like this but without the covers for the compartments and bigger http://www.flickr.co.../in/photostream) Not into watercolours.   -How do you feel about getting art supplies in general? (copic markers, watercolor, brushes, paint, sketchbooks etc.) I'd like pens I could use while scrapbooking but that's about it   -How do you feel about Threadless tshirts? I like   If you were turned loose in a basic drug store (CVS, Walgreens - a pharmacy with attached mini-mart, basically!) with a $20 bill, what would you pick up? Nail stuff, hair glaze, expensive candy bars   Darling Witchee, would you enjoy farmer's market pickled veggies (green beans, garlic, asparagus, etc) or fresh canned peaches or something of that nature? Not especially -- I get a lot of that already   Do you prefer color or white photographs? Nature or abstract? I like black and white   would you be interested in something like this? https://lostcrates.com/how-it-works ha, this is my question. LOVE.   Amigurumi, yes or no? Depends on what it looks like.   I have a question! What are some of your favorite paintings? (famous or undiscovered?) Feel free to link to examples! Famous artist, less famous painting -- Cezanne's the Forest   If you could have an image painted for you - sky is the limit - what would it be? I don't know. Probably myself, because I'm vain like that.   Name your 3 favorite scents for candles Buttercream, cake, and fig   Name your 3 favorite types/flavors of tea Jasmine, orange pekoe, camomile, peppermint   September 18th   If you had an international witch, is there anything you would like from the UK? (Or Australia, Belgium, France any other country we have witches from. Sure. Food, especially. From, you know, anywhere.   SOCK PREFERENCES? I have WIDE FEET and I like my socks to either be really high, like knee socks, or really low, like anklets. I don't like them to hit midcalf.   Would you like/wear a pair of these? http://www.ravelry.c...rary/yoga-socks If so, what color? I can't open the link, but are those the socks with no toes? I would like those for yoga.   Is there anyone here who likes toe socks? You know, those socks with a place for each toe? I do!   September 18th   Do you wear t-shirts? Are there particular things you like on them? Would you like one designed by your Witch? And, if you don't mind saying, what size t-shirt do you wear? I go through phases where I wear them a lot and phases where I don't. I don't like the feeling of new regular crew neck t shirts, but I like the "vintage" feeling ones. I love upcycled t's. I wear a large for the most part.   How do you feel about pumpkin scented things? Not perfume related, but soap, candles, etc.... I love pumpkin but hate clove.   Has anyone else heard of or does anyone else love Glamourkin? Never heard of it/them.   September 17th   Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now? No.   Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards? I don't have a particular fondness for postcards. I'd be a Nacho, sure.   Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall? Nope.   Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters? Nope.   Witchee, would you like a framed photograph and of what? Maybe. I like photographs. I like regular things in unusual ways, like a super close up of a butterfly wing or whatever.   September 16th   Are you more prone to order out or cook at home? Would you be interested in cookbooks, kitchen utensils, and the like? If so, anything specific? I cook at home. I'd love a new honey dripper or a strawberry huller. I like kitchen gadgets A LOT, but not timers.   New question: How do you feel about maple syrup? LOVE. Especially love maple sugar candy   How do people feel about little pocket shrines, maybe something inspirational/motivational to keep in their purses/backpacks/whatever? (Like these: http://www.art-shrin...cketshrines.htm) Never really thought about it, but probably don't need anything else to carry around at the moment.   Do you like Star Wars? Original Trilogy? Prequels? Spin-offs? Favorite characters? I do like, but I'm not a fangirl.   Do you like beef jerkey, I know some may be vegatarian, but where I live beef is a staple and beef jerkey abounds. If so do you it really thin, hard and crunchy or thicker and softer. (OK that borders on obscene)- LOVE. Like all kinds of textures. Don't like black pepper.   Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work. No need to warn.   Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay) Sorry, Nay.   I have a couple spare Doctor Who stickers. If my witchee is a fan, would they like a couple Doctor Who stickers in their package? No.   Anyone love Buffy/Angel? I have only seen Buffy but like it. DH likes it lots. I'd love to have DVDs of this, but don't want related memorabilia.   How would you feel about gummies? Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires? Love gummy anything, but don't like cherry or banana flavour.   How would you feel about a totally original Gela-skin for your laptop/iPod/phone?

Are you a cartoon bats and smily pumpkins person or a skulls-and-bones the-dead-are-rising kind of person? Are your fairytales dark or Disney? Hmmm, I don't know. I guess I'm not really either. I don't like gross things at all, but I am also not into cutesy. I'm more into the creepy old castle sort of thing.   Are your ears pierced, Witchee? Do you have any other piercings? Would you like to receive any items of jewelry for these piercings? My ears are pierced, but very sensitive to metals   How do you all feel about Whoopie Pies? I have never had one.   September 15th   interested in anything from Lush? YES.

That would be awesome, actually...   How do you feel about pumpkin scented things? Very good. I just bought 5 pumpkin candles for the sconce over my fireplace but I could use some jar candles or votives or oil/tarts for my diffusers.     Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now? Hmm...I am looking for TV shows mostly.   Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters? Nope, sorry.   Are you more prone to order out or cook at home?

Favorite characters? I am really NOT a Star Wars fan. Blasphemy, I know.   Do you like beef jerkey, I know some may be vegatarian, but where I live beef is a staple and beef jerkey abounds. If so do you it really thin, hard and crunchy or thicker and softer. (OK that borders on obscene)- Yes! I like it! Meat, mmm. I like all sizes/textures. Spicy is fine. I also like waterfowl or venison jerky. And turkey jerky.   Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work. Fine with it but PLEASE give me a NSFW heads up because I'm a lazy person who does BPAL.org and the like while in the office   Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay) Sorry, get out the tissues. Nay.   Anyone love Buffy/Angel? YES YES YES YES YES ME ME ME RIGHT HERE *JUMPS UP AND DOWN* I am a Buffyphile. I love it.

Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires? Yes! And if I didn't like them (and even if I do) my husband will boost them for himself.   Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards? Yes and Yes!   Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall? I want to go see Ben Folds with the symphony at the end of October but new house is not conducive to ticket purchases. I do have tickets to see Brandi Carlile (again) in November. I LOVE HER.     Since this is a Halloween round, what's your Creepy threshold? Are you a cartoon bats and smily pumpkins person or a skulls-and-bones the-dead-are-rising kind of person? Are your fairytales dark or Disney? Zombies can go super gory and creepy. I do like pumpkins though.
