Q and A from the SW F2010 thread~!

Conglomerated for your convenience. =D How do you feel about silly, funny knick-knack, dollar store stuff, stickers, magnets etc? Would you like receiving that kind of stuff or rather not? Maybe one magnet or stickers. I already have plenty of clutter, otherwise. =D   Is there a specific book you've been wanting to get but haven't found the time or the opportunity to? Heh, check Amazon. Do you read mangas/watch animes? Which ones? Do you have a particular favorite? Would you like to receive mangas or anything related to them? My favorites are Ergo Proxy and Slayers. I'd love Slayers light novels or the Ergo Proxy DVDs. I haven't read or watched anything incredibly new for a while.   Are you open to receiving things that are not on your wishlist, maybe something your Witch thinks you might like? Of course!   Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? I like sketchbooks, especially moleskins and watercolor paper. How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? I think I have too much as is with hardly anything to use it for. :{ Always need new micron pens in any size and color, though!   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Sure!   Would you like something you have to make yourself? Depends on how hard it is. ;   Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you? I rather have you make it! It's a lot more meaningful that you would want to. }   Partial bottles? Yes.   Who is your favorite soap etailer? Villaness, Lush What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? Urban Decay and Bare Essentials minerals. I like colorful eye shadows and nail polish; green, metallic, neon, etc.   Lip Gloss Colors: Mulberry, Coffee, shell pink, neutral.   What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? Teacups and glasses would be nice.   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? I like things spread out but don't mind waiting until the end.     Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I like occasional e-cards but I don't require them~!     If you witch made you something and it didn't come out just right, would you still want it? Of course! If you could see one concert right now, who would it be? Lacuna Coil   Do you like maple sugar candy? Very much.   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? Somewhere... lost in LJ.   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Eeeeeh... >_<   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Pepper blend, tarragon and garlic.   Microsoft or Apple? Microsoft.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? Florida. Being on a quite island full of wildlife.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? Yes and yes. Would you like a tea cozy? I... I'd need a better teapot to go with it. Otherwise, I'd love one!   Vampires/Vampire literature: I like short story collections, mostly. Never got into any major vampire series. Consoles: PC all the way. Sometimes I play with my DS Lite. I prefer tabletop RPGs and boardgames, though. Plants and flowers: Hmmm, not sure? I like flowers and plants, but my plants have to live outdoors. How do you feel about marzipan?: I like it quite a bit and my husband -loves- it.   If you could have 3 BPAL bottles fall (gently) out of the sky right this second that you've been looking for or pining for - which 3 would they be?: Succubus, Pinched with Four Aces and Perversion.   Are there any international treats that you love and have a hard time finding? Walkers Crips, Kinder Surprise and Malteasers.

I wouldn’t mind, but I wouldn’t be sure as to what I’m getting   Are you open to receiving things that are not on your wishlist, maybe something your Witch thinks you might like? Oh of course!!! I don’t expect any witch of mine to get stuff exclusively from my WL. There’s no fun in that. I like the element of surprise   If you have something on a wishlist that we could craft INSTEAD of buying, though it might not end up identical to the wishlist thing, would it be okay to craft it instead? Of course!! I’d love it that much more too!   OK, I know that lots of folks love socks. Do you have a preference of length? Materials? Patterns? Oooooo socks!!

I want to learn how to bake but I don’t have any supplies. Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? No preference for me. Sometimes live is better than studio, and I don’t mind bad words. Bad words are just words and usually their origin is silly and innocent. And bad words are funny.   If you are an animal lover, is there a specific type/breed that you love most? The kitteh cat! Also flowers and plants- If you like flowers/plants, do you have a favorite(s)? I like flowers, and plants, but no real favorite.   Do you have a favorite quotation? Song lyric?

(A scent where even a tester would do) VILF   Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that you have some children/spawn (1 or more), and, hypothetically speaking, your witch would like to spoil them a little but knows nothing of kids these days. What do they like or dislike? Also is there anything a (sane) adult might think they would like that you don't think is appropriate for whatever reason? (I'm thinking of things like temp tattoos, make up, things that make noise, or anything else that might be bad for non-obvious reasons.) – No kiddos in my house.   Is there anything you would like that can be delivered over the internet? Things like fanfic recs, cat macros, mp3s you are looking for, how-to or amusing videos, things like that? I’m not sure, but I know that I like it when people send me links to funny stuff though so sure!   What would your last meal be if it could be anything in the world (sky is the limit, drinks too, the whole shebang)?

Mabon, The Byronic AntiHero, And the Infernal Lover <= fo SHO!!!   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff? I’d use that at work, so sure!! I do have a history of buying stuff like that and never using it though. Pens are always good! I use those at work.   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Oh heck yes Witch! Bring it!! I like anything that spicy and sugary.   If you've got stuff on your BPAL wishlist, would partial bottles be okay? Of course!   Would you like something you have to make yourself?

I don’t think that I’ve ever really tried the right soaps, though Tarty has some excellent soaps.   What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? OH YES! That is so my flavor. I love vintage and second hand odds and ends and knick knacks. Especially if they’re totally off the wall or wacky.   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? No preference here, do what you will mah witch!   What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? I usually wear simple make up like Mac. I tend to stick to shimmery (not pearly though) colors. Golds, pinks, browns, reds are all the colors that I like. Who would be on your top 5 (IE famous people you’d date/have relations with ): Ahem.. I’d start with John Cusack (version 1985), Alexander Skarsgård (Humminahumminahummina), Paul Newman (When he was younger of course), Lindsey Buckingham (version 1985), Paul Rudd.   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I never expect more out of my witch than I’d give my witchee.

I do have a ScentBase, however, it’s totally neglected. I have so many flavors of BPAL and I’m (usually) quite active in swapping so it’s out of date.

Not sure, I haven’t tried it really.   If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? Yes and Yes!   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices?

Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? I like them, but I'm not in love with them. I don't draw but I like sketchbooks anyway because I glue things in them.   Latest lab update? I don't know how I feel about it yet.   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? Like. I used to be stationery obsessed. I also love all the stuff at KnockKnock.com -- the folders crack me up.   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) I hate onions. I don't like jellies or jams. I'm pretty picky about this sort of thing. I love apple butter and pumpkin butter, though.   Would you like something you have to make yourself? Maybe; only if I have the skills.   Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you?

Not really.   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? I just want to know when I'm getting my last thing. I'm not good at waiting, so if I know the last thing is the last thing, that's good for me.     Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch?

Some Questions answered

Yup, it's easier to stalk here. Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? Yes, but I prefer unlined or watercolor paper How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff? Yes I do and I have no preference. I do love me some saniro.   Anything wanted from latest BPAL update? Any of the inquisition scents. I have decants of the weenies coming, so I might want bottles later but we'll see.   Homemade preserves (e.g. marinated veggies, pickled onions, chili jam?) . Yes please! Chili jam sounds amazing!   Partial BPAL bottles? Sure, or empties. Same goes for imps.   Would you like something you have to make yourself? For example, a kit to knit your own soft toy, or a card making kit, or baking kit, etc. And is there anything in particular you'd like to learn? Kits can be fun. I'd like something more fibery than knitty. Or glass blowing, but that doesn't come in a kit lol.   Who is your favorite soap etailer? Anything that's cold process I'll love. I love a bunch of lush's soaps, and some others from propaganda bath, but they're dead now.   What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? Does nail polish count? I love polish, and could use some more zoya remove. Other than that, I don't wear makeup, besides untinted lip balm.   What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? Snails or cactus. Other than that no thanks. I'm rather picky about what trinkets I'll bring in, and I can't really describe them.   Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you? Make it!   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? Not enough of one to mention.   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I kinda prefer low contact. Please no ecards.   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? Haha, no, and I have no idea!   Who would be on your top 5 famous people to get it on with? Uh, I can't think of five . . . Maggie Gyllenhaal, Thora Birch, Scarlet Johansen, and Christina Ricci before she got all creepy skinny.   Maple sugar candy? Never tried it but I love maple syrup.   Chocolate & Bacon? I love bacon anything. Chocolate bacon is pretty good.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Rosemary, basil, garlic   Microsoft or Apple? Apple. The only microsoft product I tolerate is xbox 360.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? My honeymoon, almost two years ago. The lounging around and shopping. I dunno not having to worry about money.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? I love sending and receiving them, though I do not do it too often.   Are you allergic to any food things?? Cashews and pistachios. All other nuts are fine, and if it says "processed on a facility that processes tree nuts" or something similar is fine. I'm not super allergic, but eating them makes me sick.   Do you hate any food things with a passion?? Not really. I'll avoid broccoli and cauliflower and not much else.   Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? Kind of. The whole point of magazines is to have a physical copy to me. Most things that are in them are free on the internet if I want to read it on a screen.   Would you like a tea cozy? No thank you. I do use a tea pot, but I don't like tea cozies.   If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? Since making a scarf for someone who has 10 might be a smidge excessive? Also, how do people feel about shawls? I'd love anything you knit. Shawls are nice, but so much work! I'd love a shawlette.   Tea: loose or bagged? Preferably loose unless it's something super special that only comes in bags.

Halloweenie SW Questions - 9/13 to 9/14/10

Chocolate or other types of candy?   There are all kinds of candy that I love but can't currently eat due to braces. Pretty much anything gummy / caramel, sticky (jelly beans, red vines) or crunchy (toffee *sob*) is out. Chocolate is pretty safe, but I also adore Reese's Pieces and York Patties.   For tea drinkers, do you prefer loose leaf or tea bags?   Either! I do loose often at home, tea bags when I'm lazy or at work.   If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? Since making a scarf for someone who has 10 might be a smidge excessive? Also, how do people feel about shawls?   I have about 1 bazillion pairs of handknit socks (literally over 100, I'm pretty sure). However, if you knit socks and want to knit me some, FEEL FREE! I rarely wear hats, and I've knit a few myself so I'm pretty much set there. Scarves are fine, I have a few but it's nice to switch them out. I'm a bit hesitant about shawls. I'm knitting my first two - one is a shawlette, and I'm planning to wear it more like a scarf, the other was just because I took Jared Flood's class and had to knit Girasole. It might end up being a couch decoration.   Is there a TV, movie or literary character that you are a lot alike, or would like to be alike?   Hmm... well I see a lot of myself in Bones, but I'm not that socially inept.   Is there anything you need for your kitchen, ie measuring cups, spoons, grater, ect?   I think I'm pretty much set there... my mom was horrified that I didn't have a lemon juicer, but honestly I don't think I've ever needed one!   Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit?   I prefer studio, because it sounds more polished, unless it's something you can't get non-live. Explicit is fine, I don't like censorship.   If you are an animal lover, is there a specific type/breed that you love most?   I love cats and tropical fish.   Also flowers and plants- If you like flowers/plants, do you have a favorite(s)?   Irises are my favorite flower.   Do you have a favorite quotation? Song lyric? Book passage? WhateverthehecktheycalltheanonymousregionalwisdomthingiePROVERB! that word.   "I settled for less and it's more than enough" - it's from my favorite Fair to Midland song Say When. They're my new favorite band.   What is a bpal scent that you've been dying to try for awhile but just can't find? (A scent where even a tester would do)   Well, I'll always take more Succubus! I have some of that though, and have certainly tried it. Um... the bubblegum-smelling prototype of Lolita? I know it's a longshot.   Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that you have some children/spawn (1 or more), and, hypothetically speaking, your witch would like to spoil them a little but knows nothing of kids these days. What do they like or dislike? Also is there anything a (sane) adult might think they would like that you don't think is appropriate for whatever reason? (I'm thinking of things like temp tattoos, make up, things that make noise, or anything else that might be bad for non-obvious reasons.)   I have no children, hypothetical or otherwise.   Is there anything you would like that can be delivered over the internet? Things like fanfic recs, cat macros, mp3s you are looking for, how-to or amusing videos, things like that   Um... not really. I don't read fanfic and I'm not really into the amusing videos / cat macros.   What would your last meal be if it could be anything in the world (sky is the limit, drinks too, the whole shebang)   Well, if I'm going to die and don't have to feel the pain of eating too much... Wait! It can be small plates! OK, I want mattar paneer from my favorite Indian place with chai. Then some Phad Khing from my fave Thai place and some Thai iced tea from a different Thai place. Then I want vegan Chinese from Bamboo Garden, blackberry pie made by my mom, kettle corn... Oh, and bubble tea!   NaNoWriMo?   Nope!   what interests you from the latest lab update?   I don't know, I'm a bad person and haven't looked yet.   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff?   Yay, though I have a lot. I once saw this sort of "dark" Alice In Wonderland stationery and I didn't buy it and I have regretted it ever since. I'm in for cutesy or whatever - all stationery is good!   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?)   Sure!   If you've got stuff on your BPAL wishlist, would partial bottles be okay?   Of course, I need to update it, but I'm pretty sure I haven't gotten any of that stuff. I do have it listed by things I'd like to try (imp or partial is great) and things I want a bottle of (partials are still good!)   Would you like something you have to make yourself?   Maybe... if you think I can do it!   Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you?   Whatever is better for you, anything made by my witch will be extra special.   Who is your favorite soap etailer?   I don't have one.   What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc?   Uh... I don't know. With the cats I can't really display breakable things much.   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference?   Whatever is easier / cheaper for my witch is fine, but I do prefer them spaced out. I like to spread out the joy, and when I get a huge box at once it can be overwhelming. I feel like I appreciate things more immediately (like when opening the box) when they're more spread out, but large packages are like the gift that keeps on giving as I remember / discover even more gifties!   What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet?   I don't wear make up. Occasionally lightly tinted lip gloss, but that's about it.   Who would be on your top 5 (IE famous people you’d date/have relations with )   Alexander Skarsgård Heath Ledger, but only if he wasn't dead Davey Havok Anders Nyström James Marsters   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch?   I think my witch has done just great so far! Once every week or so is fine by me.   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried?   I have a spreadsheet, but it's not public... maybe I should make it a google doc... ok, here it is: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5mvwH8ieAbgYzg2OGRlNzQtNDhjNC00NzBjLWIxOTUtOWE2MGFjZTRhMGY0&hl=en&authkey=CJ7I78MH   Do you like maple sugar candy?   I don't know that I've had it.   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination?   As a vegetarian, no.   If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot?   My teapot is tiny and thus does not sit full very long, so it's probably fine.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices?   cinnamon, chili powder, cumin   Microsoft or Apple?   Both! I have had PCs all my life, but I have an iPhone and am getting a coworker's old MacBook to try my hand at the world of Macs.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most?   I haven't had a real vacation in a while - my last one was probably going to Madrona FIber Festival last February. I stayed in a hotel with my friend which was lovely, and we knit, spin, and bought yarn all weekend. But it's not all that far from home, just about an hour south. I really liked not having to do any of my normal home stuff, I guess.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them?   Yes!   Do you hate any food things with a passion??   Meat, but I think that's covered by the vegetarian thing. Lima beans, but they're an unlikely witch gift. And I don't like eggs, but they're ok in baked goods and I doubt my witch would send them any other way.   Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree?   That would be fine.   Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks?   I like them, but I have a lot. If it is very special and/or handmade by my witch / with-collaborator that would be great, but I'd prefer my witch didn't buy any for me.

9/17/10 Are there any particular movies, tv shows or cd's that you've been meaning to buy for years but just never got round to getting? Would you mind a gently used dvd/cd if your witch had it or could get it?? No problem with gently used DVD's. Defying Gravity would be awesome, and/or Pushing Daisies. Thought of some other ones - not officially out on DVD yet, so would have to be homemade/recorded. I have been searching & waiting for years for DVD's of The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne, and Brimstone. Also the animated series of both Beetlejuice and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! Next to impossible, but I decided to throw it in here just in case...   Is there anything from the Possets' Hallowe'en update you're lusting after? PumPom. The Girls Love Ginger. Void Moon. Temptation - getting sucked into other retailers with all the cool links in the massive thread o' doom. Looked at Good Judy for just a minute, now I want all the American Gothic scents. Drat.   Would you like a custom/altered toy either from a seller or from your witch (like My Little Pony, or a Barbie or any particular toy that can be changed?) I've always thought the modded My Little Ponies were cool. That said, it also kind of looks like they cost more (fully justifiable, time & labor intensive) than I think it would be worth to me.   Do you like the candy apple, candy corn or pumpkin spice kisses? Haven't had them, but all 3 kinds sound delicious.   Anne Taintor, anyone? Looked up her stuff - very nice, funny. That said, I don't possess a burning desire to own any.   Which web comics do you enjoy? xkcd, Sluggy Freelance, used to read Dykes to Watch Out For until it went on hiatus. Lots of others but can't remember names now. 9/16/10 If I were to knit a scarf, would you prefer a skinny one, or a wide one? A short one, that when wrapped once around your neck will just tuck under your jacket, or a long one, at least to your waist? Long & skinny, don't have a Dr. Who style scarf yet.....   Don't like scarves? Would a rectangular shawl or triangular shawl be more to your taste? Triangular. Longer, & comfy. Dark colors.   How do you feel about recipes? Fun, but preferably not too complicated.   What kind of a cook/baker are you? I enjoy it, but tend to run out of patience after awhile.   Are you happiest calling for delivery or microwaving a lean cuisine, Or will Food Network be asking you to host their new program? Somewhere in between.   If I send you something home made would you like the recipe for it? Absolutely. I'll want to know how to make more deliciousness once it runs out   If you are someone who doesn't want baked goods sent, would you like a collection of some of my favorite recipes? Sure!   How about home made mixes or kits? Kind of like the cookie in a jar thing, where you would need to add the perishable ingredients? Also fun!   if you are a tea lover, what are your flavor preferences? Green? Black? Herbal (I know, technically those are NOT teas, but tisanes)? Flavored blacks/greens? Green tea combinations, black tea (but not so much Earl Grey), fruity herbals are ok. I prefer my drinks to have caffeine, but have been known to make exceptions when it's delicious enough. I do collect different kinds of honey, which I frequently use to sweeten tea. If you see a cool, or interesting, or unique(ish) local type of honey, I would love some...   9/15/10 How do you feel about silly, funny knick-knack, dollar store stuff, stickers, magnets etc? Would you like receiving that kind of stuff or rather not? That kind of stuff can be fun, especially perishables/stuff that gets used up. If it is intended to sit around, only if you think it is absolutely perfect for me, Witch.   Is there a specific book you've been wanting to get but haven't found the time or the opportunity to? Anathem, by Neil Stephenson. Haven't had time yet. But my copy is sitting here waiting...   Do you read mangas/watch animes? Which ones? Do you have a particular favourite? Would you like to receive mangas or anything related to them? Love anime. All-time favorite is Cowboy Bebop. The daughter loves Inuyasha best. Haven't read too many mangas, though. Turning the pages the wrong way just seems to bother me on some visceral level. But if you have some around to share, would be cool to see something new.   Are you open to receiving things that are not on your wishlist, maybe something your Witch thinks you might like? Absolutely!   If you have something on a wishlist that we could craft INSTEAD of buying, though it might not end up identical to the wishlist thing, would it be okay to craft it instead? Obviously we don't want to copy anyone else's design, but if we can replicate the flavour or intent that you like without stepping on toes? Yes. Definitely.   OK, I know that lots of folks love socks. Do you have a preference of length? Materials? Patterns? Socks can be fun, but honestly only if you see something so perfect it can't be passed up. Think Sally from NMBC or Witch Stripes or - you know - something that cries out.   How do people feel about word magnets? Love them! Used to have a Shakespearian Insults set, but it got lost in a move. Looked at a couple after I saw this list, put some on wishlists just for fun.   If you could have any costume, or if you aren't into costumes, necklaces or other accessories, from any movie character, what would it be? Morticia Addams. for Halloween.   How do you feel about samples/decants of things other than BPAL? Soap slices, lotion/scrub/shower gel decants, single use make-up/beauty products, etc. Yay!   What are you guys going to be aiming for in the Inquisition? Or do you just plan on ordering individual items? I'm probably going to order a tissue shirt of trick and candy corn covered candy apples. I'd love decants or sniffies of some of the individual scents, just can't afford all of them. And don't use bath oil enough to justify it.   9/14/10 Chocolate or other types of candy? Yum... Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, new and obscure combinations (but not bacon ), gummy candy, sour candy, caramels, peanut butter, oatmeal - we're pretty open to candy around here   For tea drinkers, do you prefer loose leaf or tea bags? Prefer tea bags in general, but do have tea strainers & occasionally use loose leaf too. Would really love a glass teapot and flowering tea, but have never gotten around to getting one. If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? Since making a scarf for someone who has 10 might be a smidge excessive? Also, how do people feel about shawls? Shawls are fun, especially a big warm cozy one for when winter hits this year. My sister has made me several scarves, so I'm probably set there. Small knitted toys or a tea cosy would be fun.   Is there a TV, movie or literary character that you are a lot alike, or would like to be alike? Morticia Addams.   Is there anything you need for your kitchen, ie measuring cups, spoons, grater, etc? New measuring cups - they keep getting broken (oops)   Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? Studio, generally. Prefer the music the way it was originally written & performed, not edited.   If you are an animal lover, is there a specific type/breed that you love most? Cats. Owls. Turtles. Bats. I used to have a massive phobia of dogs, but we found an 8 year old Dalmatian that needed a new home, and she convinced me that some dogs can be very nice. Jasmine is now part of our family. Also flowers and plants- If you like flowers/plants, do you have a favorite(s)? hmm. Daffodils, irises, poinsettias, Venus Fly traps   Do you have a favorite quotation? Song lyric? Book passage? WhateverthehecktheycalltheanonymousregionalwisdomthingiePROVERB! that word. will have to ponder that one. 1st: Lewis Carroll - Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end; then stop.   What is a bpal scent that you've been dying to try for awhile but just can't find? (A scent where even a tester would do) Hamadryad - the original cinnamon one. Dungeon Crawl would be awesome too.   Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that you have some children/spawn (1 or more), and, hypothetically speaking, your witch would like to spoil them a little but knows nothing of kids these days. What do they like or dislike? Also is there anything a (sane) adult might think they would like that you don't think is appropriate for whatever reason? (I'm thinking of things like temp tattoos, make up, things that make noise, or anything else that might be bad for non-obvious reasons.) Um, Devi has her own wishlist attached to the same Amazon account, for a general idea. Nothing obvious that I think is evil, offhand. Except Disney Princesses.   Is there anything you would like that can be delivered over the internet? Things like fanfic recs, cat macros, mp3s you are looking for, how-to or amusing videos, things like that - Yes, please! Internet time-wasting is one of my favorite things. Spike fanfic, lolcats, WoW videos, Cthulhu pamphlets - just about anything funny is awesome and appreciated. And have just started finding cool Amigurumi patterns (crochet creatures) on the web   What would your last meal be if it could be anything in the world (sky is the limit, drinks too, the whole shebang) Will think a bit on this one too. Would have to say if it is going to be my last meal, would probably be incredibly rich and unhealthy, go out with a hedonistic bang! A several course dinner, including fruit, salad, soup, meat, dessert, all paired with the appropriate wine. Followed by dark rich coffee   NaNoWriMo? Never heard of it before. - Looked it up, not my thing. HATED writing papers in high school & college. 9/13/10 what interests you from the latest lab update? Ooh, lots. I've updated my wishlist with a bunch of the BPTP stuff. Have ordered my Weenies, may order more...   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff? Elegant stationery, adorable is ok as long as it doesn't cross the line into cutesy. Pens are fun - biggest criteria is writes smoothly without skipping on the paper and comfortable to hold. I really want to get a sealing wax setup, but haven't yet.   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated veggies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Fruit jam or preserves, yes. Pickled onions - NO.   If you've got stuff on your BPAL wishlist, would partial bottles be okay? Yes, YES, many times yes! Anything sniffable and maybe even testable is awesome! Would you like something you have to make yourself? Is it really easy? As in, a craft kit an 8 year old could master? Or cross stitch? Sure! Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? As much contact as you can handle, Wonderful Witch   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? ScentBase   Do you like maple sugar candy? Blech, maple is not a friend of mine.   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Against it.   If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? This sounds fun. I looked on Etsy & put a couple on there as a general hint towards my tastes.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, garlic salt, paprika, cinnamon...   Microsoft or Apple? Microsoft. Apple only for iPods.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? Camping with the family. Enjoy nature, listening to running water - can only go about a day before I WANT A SHOWER. Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? Postcards are fun. I love the pictures.   Do you hate any food things with a passion?? Onions! Can only tolerate them in cooked food if they are diced so fine I can't see them, preferably dried. Nothing worse than the pungent stench of a freshly killed onion.   Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? I love digital magazines. Not only does it save a tree, but also bookshelf space.

Augh! More Questions!

A few other relevant questions (from the Master SW Question list courtesy of the lovely lioness)   Chocolate or other types of candy? Chocolate is my favorite, as you already know from my questionnaire, but I also love caramels, Laffy Taffy, Red Vines, Swedish Fish and anything soft and fruity tasting.   If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? Since making a scarf for someone who has 10 might be a smidge excessive? Also, how do people feel about shawls? I love both scarves and shawls. During the dark days of a Chicago winter it's possible to wear 10 at a time and still feel a bit chilly.   Is there a TV, movie or literary character that you are a lot alike, or would like to be alike? Supposedly I look like Agent Scully from the X-Files and Anne of Green Gables. I don't see the resemblance in either case other than paleness and reddish hair.   Is there anything you need for your kitchen, ie measuring cups, spoons, grater, ect? I keep forgetting to pick up a pastry brush and a pastry cutter. Both of these would have come in handy this past weekend while I was in a baking frenzy.   Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? I prefer live concerts, especially classical or jazz. Neither of them ever need to be edited. For recorded music, I like either (depends on the piece) and hate editing. I'm Irish, have five brothers and come from a quasi-Navy family so I've heard it all.   Also flowers and plants- If you like flowers/plants, do you have a favorite(s)? I love tulips and would put in some bulbs this fall if my neighbor's annoying dog wouldn't dig them up. I like to keep an aloe plant or two (or more) around the house at all times.   what interests you from the latest lab update? I've ordered lots of decants as well as unsniffed bottles of Blue Pumpkin Floss and Pumpkin Latte. I need to add Ginger Skulls, Sugar Skull, The Infernal Lover and Unsteady Governess to my list of wants based on reviews.

SW 3.0

edited/updated August 2011   Barrettes! Mine are all falling apart & getting lost, I'd love some more!     Favorite flowers and plants- – Lavender, snapdragons, violets, bluebells   children/spawn - What do they like or dislike? Also is there anything a (sane) adult might think they would like that you don't think is appropriate for whatever reason? – Wand noisy things can always be (temporarily) taken away or de-batteried SO If it says it's appropriate for 3 and up, then it should be fine.   a specific type/breed that you love most? Turtles gryphons, dragons, dragonflies, butterflies, raccoons, wolves, ocelots . ..   What is a bpal scent that you've been dying to try for awhile but just can't find? (A scent where even a tester would do) I really wouldn't want much less than 1/2 imp. I want to really be able to test it for a day, not just sniff it & then wish I could find it. Feel free to stick with GC stuff, I've got enough of them on my wishlist!   Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? Any of the above, although if the lyrics are REALLY raunchy, I'd probably pass on the song altogether.   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? Either classic/elegant or folksy or completely crazy humor or fantasy-type art.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Garlic, Mrs. Dash, uhm . .. a tie btwn cumin & ground pepper.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? Postcards (with neat pix or of different places) would be fun!   Would you like homemade preserves Yum! But no peppers, please!   For tea drinkers, do you prefer loose leaf or tea bags? both. When I have the time, I enjoy loose leaf as a special treat. The rest of the time, tea bags make my life easier!   If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? I only have a couple of scarfs, so one more would still be fine, and I love shawls! Gloves, hats, mittens, socks all would be OK as well.

I just thought of something!

I was thinking about magazines and I'd LOVE to get Fiend magazine! It's an aussie goth magazine. But if there's any goth mags in your country, then I'd love to read them too!   What else random...Oh! I know! I'd love to learn how to make moulded resin jewellery, like big bangles. Love bangles and wrist cuffs.   Also another random though... I love apples and apple cider. Just sayin'

Greetings, Dearest Witch O' Mine!

Here's ketchup from the SW thread, which moves way too fast for my feeble mind.   Do you hate any food things with a passion?? Liver, cauliflower and white chocolate. Please, no liver. I already have one. (har)   Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? I'm already getting Mother Jones via email (which is one of the mags I mentioned in the questionnaire) but wouldn't mind getting any of the others digitally.   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? I love stationery and office supplies. I feel the same way about cool stationery that some women feel about cool shoes.   What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? I'm pretty well set on makeup. My dry, ghostly pale skin is pretty sensitive (especially my face) so I get hypoallergenic stuff that won't cause it to go into a tizzy.   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I love contact (and I LOVED your first email) but I don't expect you to plan your life around me.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Black pepper, cumin, chili powder (with paprika a close fourth)   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? I have a mostly updated Excel file, which I can email to you upon request. That might be more info than you want, though.   Microsoft or Apple? Someday, somehow, I will have a Mac. Until then I make do with my wretched PC. (I shouldn't complain, though. My neighbor gave it to me for free.)   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Love chocolate, love bacon, but the combination of the two may be too much of a good thing.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? It's been nearly three years since my last vacation, which was two weeks in India. We spent a few days in the Himalayan foothills (beautiful!), which I loved. My favorite part of the whole vacation, though, was definitely the food. It was TO DIE FOR.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? I would love to both send and receive them!   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? That is completely up to you, dear witch. Please do what is most convenient for you.

More 'Weenie Witch Help.

what interests you from the latest lab update? I think I answered this already..   How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff? Yes please! And.. if it's in the vein of kawaii, then cutesy is fine. Otherwise, classic/contemporary.   Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Beans (any type) would be fine, as well as tomatoes. Fruit jams/preserves will also be eaten.   If you've got stuff on your BPAL wishlist, would partial bottles be okay? Of course! I have yet to go through a full 5ml, plus some of the things I'm wishing for are pretty hard to find.   Would you like something you have to make yourself? Sure.   Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you? It would warm the cockles of my heart if you made it.   Who is your favorite soap etailer? Paintbox Soapworks, but if we're including scrubs, Haus of Gloi is right up there too. There are also other soap etailers on my Etsy wishlist I'd like to try! What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? Not much of a vintage collector/decorator.   With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? No preference, it's all up to my Witch.   What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? Vastly prefer mineral makeup. Would like to start getting into Meow and more of Fyrinnae. In Clinique, my foundation type is linen, so I think I've got some yellow undertone to my pale whiteness. As for colors.. I look best in browns, pinks and some greens (although I haven't entirely figured out why some do and some don't). I'm also trying to figure out the shades of blue which work, as well. Please no yellows or orange. Blushwise, I tend to go for darker pinks or neutrals. For lips, I'd love to find a red which works on me. Darker pinks/mauves/purples work well. Am looking for browns/neutrals.   Who would be on your top 5 (IE famous people you’d date/have relations with ) Alexander Skarsgard, Nathan Fillion, Adam Savage, James Marsters, Piper Perabo (from Covert Affairs), Basshunter, and Miyavi.   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? Whatever my Witch desires.   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? I have a spreadsheet. I can put it in Google Docs if needed. It needs a minor update (I think it's updated till Lupercalia 2010) but I haven't really bought anything over the summer.   Do you like maple sugar candy? Don't think I've ever had any, but one or two pieces would be nice.   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? *gags* Keep bacon over there, and chocolate far, far away from it. (I like both, but.. no. not together.)   If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? Nope. Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Hm. Black pepper, garlic (fresh).. and that's it.   Microsoft or Apple? PC all the way.   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? Well, due to circumstances all my vacations are to Edmonton AB. Last time I was up there in August, I totally loved the ~85 degree no humidity weather. Plus seeing the husband was nice. Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? Would love receiving, but I'm proving to be horrible about sending. Unless it's postcard-only, then I could probably do it reliably.   Do you hate any food things with a passion?? cooked carrots, celery in any form. Ricotta cheese, grits, anything with a texture like sand. Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? Sure.   Any countries you're interested in? Would love to go back to Sweden, Germany, Spain and Prague. Would also like to see more of France and Toronto other than their airports. Otherwise, the rest of Scandinavia, British Isles, Ireland, Japan, Australia/NZ.   Would you enjoy homemade bath products (bath salts, fizzies, etc.) and/or linen sprays? Esp. if scented with some of your favorite BPAL scents? Certainly.   If you witch made you something and it didn't come out just right, would you still want it? Of course!   Are you a foodie? In the food sense.. not really. I like eating, but am not a gourmand. As to perfume.. again, not really. Most foodie scents are sweet, and sweet makes me gag.   Any sports fans in the house? What's your favorite sport/team/player? I am nominally a baseball fan, rooting for the MN Twins. Most of the time, I really do not care about baseball/football/soccer/basketball/hockey/curling. I think the Olympics are the only time I actually seek out sports stuff to watch.   For holidays, do you decorate? Would you like decorative stuff, weenie or otherwise? If so, do you lean towards the elegant, the crafty/folksy, or the more, erm, campy? I haven't for years, but would like to start again. Prefer simple elegant type things.. crafty/folksy tends to equal country and I don't like that style, and 'campy' is too wide a category and really depends on taste.   Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? No thanks.   Cake truffles? If YES! Cake/icing/chocolate type? Oooh, those look yummy. I'll go for chocolate, cream cheese and dark chocolate.   are you interested in mini bottles(under 100ml for hand luggage) of bath and body products? Sure. Haus of Gloi has lots of little sample-type things *coughcough*   Vampire shows, literature, etc? Yay or nay? Send me anything Twilight-related and I will have to hunt you down, stake you, cut off your head, and stuff your mouth with garlic. Send me Alexander Skarsgard, and I will luff you forever.   If you play console video games, what game systems do you have and what games would you love to have? *snorks* The last console I had was an Atari.   How do you all feel about flowers and plants? Flower and plant seeds? Drawings of flowers or plants? Pressed flowers? I like flowers if I don't have to care for them. Or if they're hardy enough to care for themselves (like my pachira tree in my bathroom). Drawings.. sure. Pressed? No thanks. How do you feel about marzipan? Never had it, but I think it would probably be too sweet. But I wouldn't mind trying a small amount.   If you could have 3 BPAL bottles fall (gently) out of the sky right this second that you've been looking for or pining for - which 3 would they be? Amaterasu v.2 or 3.   Are there any international treats that you love and have a hard time finding? Nope, I have a source for winegums and Smarties.   If you are a crafter, would you like to receive supplies from your witch (beads, fabric, yarn/roving etc?) Sure.   Soundtracks you'd like? If you could find the intro to Covert Affairs, that'd be nice. Otherwise, I have all the soundtracks I want.   If you could see one concert right now, who would it be? Apocalyptica, They Might Be Giants, Muse, and one more I'm totally blanking on right now.

Sharing the beauty and shopping iPad App – Bella Girl

Sharing the beauty and shopping iPad App – Bella Girl   Hi! Let me introduce myself first, I am an office lady and studying part-time program at University, the follower of new trends, so I like browsing interesting website for getting the latest news and meet new friends for sharing.   Recently, my Dad bought me a new iPad as a gift, so surprised! So now, I like to find and install some iPad app in my new toy, have any suggestion?   When I visited iTunes Store, there are many iPad apps for Social Networking, Gaming, Sports, Reading or Business......etc. They are all in my iPad, are the family member of iPad. ^.^   In additional, there is a special app call Bella Girl – Beauty Assistant, a long long name but really very useful, because it is an all in one beauty and shopping tools on iPad and specifically for ladies. (specifically for lady is the main reason why I buy!)   There are 6 beauty and shopping tools included. I like BMI calculator that can find out where I stand in fitness compare to my peers, as good as is the Calorie Counter because I am on diet and want to count how much calorie I have gotten or consumed each day, it can show the line chart on the report for reference, Great!!   And other tool I like is the Event Calendar, because I can add my personal dates on the calendar (it provides the Privacy button that when I share Bella Girl with my friend, my period and ovulation date will be hidden.)   The remaining tools are Timer for control my face mask treatment time, nail drying time; Converter can help me know my size in international unit that is good for shopping reference.   The last but not the least, I feel interested that there is a Smart Compare, it is useful because when I buy the cosmetics in different volume, different price, Smart Compare can assist me to decide which one is the better choice.   Bella Girl is not the complex iPad app, but if we do not know what the button for, we can visit the user guide on Bella Girl website (although it is a long long name, but the user guide is showing by fews words with picture, it is very friendly!) And below is the website link of Bella Girl for reference, it is simple and clear!   http://bellagirl.mooee.com/?lang=en   Have any other good iPad apps you know, please sharing together!   Thanks~

13th part 2

What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? Eyemakeup: I have green eyes, so I wear green, purple, silver/grey and black mostly. I'd love to find a nice burgundy/wine colour that compliments green eyes. I have very pale skin, so my foundation colour is almost white. (Meow Cosmetics shade Inquisitive Abyssinian) And I LOVE Avon's Supershock mascara, but it's expensive to get here in Australia, so I've only tried the black one.   Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I don't mind, whatever my witch is planning is good. However, I love the 2 ecards I've received already...hehe   Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? I did, but it's lost on the same hard drive as my wishlist. =(   Do you like maple sugar candy? I've never tried it, but it sounds taasty!   What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Never tried it, but I love bacon, and I love chocolate, so why not? I also like chilli chocolate quite a lot, so weird combinations don't bother me.   If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? Sounds like a good idea, but all my teapots are a bit leaky so I fear that it wouldn't be a good idea.   Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? I have no spice cabinet! *cries* When I moved I had to chuck everything and I haven't been able to restock.   Microsoft or Apple? Depends on the function. I like both for different things, and I'm not a crazy one eyed fangirl. =P   Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? I've not really had one since I was a kid, and it was only a few times. I've never had enough money. =( However, I got sent to Malaysia for my old job, and we did get a couple of days free, which was awesome. I'd love to go overseas again if I could afford it.   Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? Yes!   Do you hate any food things with a passion?? Not really, apart from a couple of icky vegetables, but I doubt anyone will send me turnips...LOL.   Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? Nah, kill the tree. =P

And some more...

Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? So far Witch has more contact with me than I expected and I'm enjoying the feelings of specialness that come with that. Less contact would be fine too, I'm comfortable with both. Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? I will post that to my blog tomorrow, but I don't mind getting imps I've tried before, especially since I've recently realized that it's totally true that perfume smells different when I'm menstruating (I thought it was a myth but it ISN'T) so I'm always up for re-testing. Do you like maple sugar candy? Never tried it but it sounds good What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Haven't tried it yet but I want to. If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? I don't have a proper teapot Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Cumin, nutmeg, red pepper Microsoft or Apple? no preference Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? Visited my family a few years ago in Southern California. I love Disneyland for personal reasons. I met my boyfriend there. Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? Yes Do you hate any food things with a passion?? There are things I hated in the past that I now love. I used to hate olives and pickles and now as of the past year they're my new favorites. Same with mustard (though I still don't like "yellow mustard"). I've always hated licorice (though I love the smell) especially black licorice and Twizzlers. If something has a licorice-y flavor that's good, I just don't like licorice candy. I can't think of anything else that I hate. Liver, actually, even though I've tried really hard to like it, but I don't expect to receive that. Would you be opposed to receiving a digital version (via email) of a magazine you like but don't subscribe to...you know, in the interest of saving a tree? Nah, no magazines.

the brainhurtingly long list of have/tried/etc.

Note: this is *in progress* as I started from memory, I'll actually look at my stuff and complete it, just not tonight. Ok...   I haz: bottles/partials   Miaiphonos Lola Ninon Kumiho Inez Marcilla O Saw Scaled Viper Habu Autumn Moon The Lion Leo 07 Chaos Theories Amberx2 (one citrus-foody, one smoky vetiver) Penis Admiration Intrigue Aizen Myoo Hay Moon Gennivre Helios The Infernal Lover Aglaea Coyote The East Aureus The Butterfly Elf Half Elf Ranger   Not acquired yet but bottle-worthy:   Ashlultum Traipsing Through Crop Circles   Fenris Wolf Delirium   Geek.Goth (this would be the mission impossible scent)   i haz and love...imps: aglaea, baobhan sith, havana (i think maybe the only tobacco i can wear), fire of love, geekgoth, delirium, giant vulva, embalming fluid (the white musk exception), nanshe, temple of dreams, manners among men and women, summer's last will and testament, the east, pele, mum moon, scorpio 07, traipsing through crop circles (i think the beloved might actually like this one, so I might eventually meander after a partial), aurora spaceship, crowley, aziraphale (goes a little sweet sometimes but nice)       also tried... liked: chimera, bastet, bilquis nothing special on my skin: pais de la canela, snake oil, tamora, not good: most rose, aquatics don't behave that well on me, girly florals and i usually don't mix gracefully mutantdeathgag (or something similar): phobos, whitechapel, dorian, phantasm (note the white musk trend), antikythera mech, tobacco honey (the tobacco in both these tries to kill me), anything with jasmine (though jasmine tea like in The East I can swing) smells like it rots on my skin, orange blossom is cornchips?, something in Clytie gave me eau de canned chilis. sugar (therefore foodie) stuff does not work at all. moths and butterflies epic failed.
