Switch Witch help, circa fall 2014

Hello, dear witch! Herein lies a multitude of condiments.   1. I wonder what a potential witchee would think about being bombarded with PUMPKINS in various formats. Because my current obsession just may last long enough to be of use in spoiling.....but I know wouldn't be appreciated by everyone. Would you appreciate it?!?   MMM, I like punkin to eat, not so much as a perfume (sadly it smells like popcorn on me)   2. I currently have a CSA and my significant other is perpetually out of town for work, so I've been doing a lot of canning and baking with my vegetables. How do people feel about canned good (pickles, salsa, etc) and vegetal baked goods (squash bread, zucchini bread).   sounds cool, if you don't mind paying to mail (those jars are heavy!)   3. Trading Post wants?   ooh, not sure, I'll have to look when I get time.   4. What direct sellers do you not like and would prefer not to get things from? And also feel free to list any retail brands you really don't like.   don't know much about them, except I think I'm allergic to most Mary Kay.   5. How about y'alls coffee and tea preferences?   love tea, especially chais, and like coffee a lot, especially flavored ones and Kenya AA, when I can afford it.   6. Do you cook? Would kitchen accessories make you happy?   I cook when I have time (are we seeing a theme here?) and gadgets would be welcomed.   7. How do people feel about creative endeavours? Would you like to receive one? Or supplies to make your own? What do you like? Drawings, stories, poems?   yes plz!   8. What culture or country (doesnt have to be modern) do you feel an innate connection with? What about it makes it special to you?   I love Ireland! My ancestors came from there but I loved it even before I knew that for sure.   9. Is there any sort of art commission you would like: cartoony, pin-up, fantasy, realistic, etc? If so, what subject would you like drawn (a picture of you, a character, a loved one or pet)?   hm, I like art deco but all kinds of art are cool. Can't think of a particular topic though.   10. What do you find yourself doing for fun in your free time? What are your main hobbies and interests?   Reading and yarning! I love to knit and crochet but I'm learning to weave. Also other crafts like ATCs (art trading cards)   11. Table-top gaming? If yes, what kind, edition, etc? Gaming accessories you long for?   Used to play and loved it but don't have a group nearby now.   12. DVD movies or games that you wish would magically appear in your hands? Can they be used, through Amazon?   Used vids are fine. I need a copy of my fave old movie, called Portrait of Jennie.   13. What kind of snacks or candy from other countries/states would you like to try?   anything that involves chocolate, and/or caramel.   14. Do you have a favorite internet meme, character or pop culture fandom?   gosh, I love several! See questionnaire. lol   15. Do you have a Facebook profile (or other social media) that you are comfortable linking to aid your witch in stalking? Please note whether you are willing to add BPALers as friends.   I think I put them in my questionnaire; and I'm happy to add BPALers as friends.   16. Anybody interested in something from RCCC, whether it's con-exclusive merch or from a particular exhibitor or artist?   I don't know what all they have, but if my witch saw something that yelled my name, bring it! hehe   17. How important to you is regular contact / chatter with your witch?   I really like to hear from my witch at least every now and then, or I begin to feel like, I dunno, maybe my witch doesn't like me or know what to do with me. wouldn't be the first time, lol. (Not witches, I mean RL!) Now if my witch is crazy busy, I'm cool with that, just let me know.   18. Do you like puzzles/riddles/treasure hunts and that sort of thing?   depends on whether I have time to devote to it and enjoy it. if so, then yes!   19. If you were to receive music, would you want a physical CD or digital versions?   either is fine!   20. Whats a current problem/annoyance you have that could be remedied but you havent had time to address it?   the lack of time to address anything. lol   21. How do you feel about having some sort of trinket to carry around for good luck/wishes? i.e. a small figurine, symbol, card, coin   that would be neat. I'd like to see what somebody else picked out for me.   22. Are you superstitious about anything? Any things you can't have in your house for that reason bad associations?   can't think of anything, except don't send me any cursed stuff. lol. I don't believe in those but such a thing would probably get on my nerves just thinking of the idea.   23. For the vegetarians and vegans: How do you feel about things (say, marshmallows or gummy candy) made with vegan gelatin or other typically-animal-derived-but-not-in-this-instance products?   not a prob for me; I'll eat just about anything that isn't nailed down.   25. Do you have any fabric or skin-contact aversions? nope   26. How do you feel about Christmas/Yule ornaments? Love them, especially unusual or handmade ones.   27. How do you feel about Hello Kitty, and Hello Kitty accessories (including mugs, cups, etc)? My fave HK character is Kuromi, the Goth kitteh.   28. If you had a week free where you could learn anything, with no financial restrictions, what would you want to study? No clue. I'd probably try to arrange it around a knitting cruise.   29. Do you enjoy poetry? Who are your favorite poets and what type of subject matter do you like? It's ok. I can't think of anybody I'm crazy about.   30. Would you enjoy receiving something related to a favorite Disney character? sure. I like Pooh.   31. How do you feel about cute things as decorations or accessories? (Example: Would you enjoy this stationery - or do you prefer elegant/creepy/neutral stuff?) all of the above! I really use blank cards or note pads more though.   32. What is something you'd really like to receive from your witch? Please be as specific as possible - no, "Oh whatever she thinks is fine!" Gosh, I really like getting to know my witch. Although if pressed, I'd really like a nice Tervis tumbler.   33. Go to your music source of choice - on random or shuffle setting if possible - & share with us the 10 most recent songs/artists. Haven't been listening to anything specific for a good while, sorry.   34. Tarot cards, rune stones and/or other divination tools yay or nay? Yay!   35. Do you have a Celeb crush? or someone who you just can't get enough of....other than your SO hm. Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki, I guess.   36. Glitter? are you okay with it, or hate it like the plague? yep! like it.   37. If there was another time period other than now that described your style/aesthetics, what would it be? I think the 1920s. I like art deco.   38. If you had to pick one or two quotes to live by, what would it be and why? ok, here are 2 I memorized in high school and still love. "Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." Jim Morrison "There's two kinds of work a person can do: the kind that changes the world, and the kind that just keeps the world from falling apart." Bruce Springsteen   39. Do you prefer physical books? CD books? eBooks? If eBooks do you have preferred format, kindle/nook/kobo/PDF/ePub/ect? eAudio? yes. I have a Kindle so prefer ebooks that fit it, but I have Calibre so I can convert most anything into most anything else.   40. Smut! Yes or no? If yes, what kink, er, kind? As long as it doesn't take itself too srsly, and has some form of plot. And isn't just ridiculous. lol   41. Ebooks! Yes or no? yes!   42. If you were to get a custom bottle from House of Gloi made for you what notes would create your perfect blend? oh gosh, I don't know!   43. If your witch were to take a photograph (or paint or whatever) of something just for you, what would it be? Landscape? Flower? Critter? Something to illustrate a favorite quote? hm, a nice landscape, be it mountain or desert, or one of my fave animals, or something mythical?   44. What is your favorite Halloween animal or other symbol/decoration? I like black cats and witches.   45. Makeup, especially of the indie variety. Nail polish, nail wraps, eyeshadow, lipstick/gloss, etc. Y/N? Specific preferences (color, finish, product, brand, etc.)? I like Geek Chic Cosmetics. Used to use Sephora foundation but they changes the formula so now I'm trying various things. Also like Urban Decay and Benefit (their Bad Girl mascara is great; wish I could afford to get it more often)   46. How do you feel about profanity and off-color humor? no real problem with it.   47. I make hairsticks...would you like/use them? no, my hair is too short.   48. Does anyone here LARP? If so, what kind of LARP? And what kind of character do you play? no LARP.   49. Would you completely freak out if I sent you a chocolate covered scorpion or some other food oddity? This includes things like 'bacon powder' from thinkgeek.com. I don't know about that scorpion, but in general I'm a pretty adventurous eater.   50. This has kind of been covered, but, are you ok with receiving canned jam (from a veteran jammer!) and if so, what flavors would you like and not like? ooh, that would be good, if you didn't mind the cost of mailing it.   51. Let's talk nail polish. What colors do you love? Hate? Which brands are you dying to try? Have you ever used indies? Do you like glitter? Any textures to avoid (glitter, sand, etc)? I like glitter but I don't use it much except around Christmas time. My usual faves are light grey-blue and grey-purple, well, most blues and purples but especially those, or a sage green. I don't like most textures though. I put layers of clear over glitter to make it smooth and I hate sand.   52. How do you feel about getting a special Halloween plushie? would love it.   53. I'm in Japan, anything specific you might want from the land of the rising sun? ooh, most anything kawaii. Pocky, especially 'mens' (dark chocolate ). Lucky cats, bento stuff.   54. Are there any GC scents that you know you love, but for whatever reason, keep putting off buying bottles of? I just finally got off the Faustus waiting list. I THINK I like Hades, but I'd have to sniff it again.   55. I know not everyone likes Lush products, but if you do, which Lush items would you like to get from your Witch? anything Karma or Vanillary scented; Coalface soap.   56. Is there anywhere (in the US) that you are dying to get away to? Also when would you be able to get away. Would this even be something you were interested in? If so, go look at the Southwest sale for routes and dates and times. not really; I use up most all my vacay time taking mother to doctors appts.   57. If you are ok with receiving t-shirts, what size are you, do you prefer tissue tees, normal crew tees, babydoll etc? can't usually shove myself into girls tees, baby dolls and such. Men's large fits me best.   58. THINKGEEK! Who loves it - do you have a wishlist on there?? What are some things you are jonesing for on there for under $20? I love it! don't have a wish list though.   59. Zombies, yes or no? eh, they are ok.   60. Would you like arm warmers/fingerless gloves? If so, what length? just beyond the wrist, almost to the elbow, full sleeves? love them! Just past the wrist, enough to slip under the edge of your coat sleeve.   61. Do you feel a particular affinity for a specific animal/s? I think it's in my questionnaire but I love foxes, owls and dragons.   62. Anyone have any Paintbox Soapworks loves? Black Heart (RIP ) was my fave. I like Gingermilk. haven't tried many newer scents.   63. How would you feel if your witch or a minion of your witch showed up in person at your house with goodies? Thrilled? Annoyed? Completely creeped out? Warn me so mother isn't having a panic attack. lol   64. Do you have a ravelry account? Tell me about your yarn obsessions. Rav yay! I use all kinds of yarn. The cheapest synthetics make great stuffies. Alpaca is my favorite fiber though.   65. Sock Dreams, yay or nay? Sock yay!   66. Knitted items like scarves, shawls, dishclothes....yay or nay? Favorite fibers? Favorite colors? sure. I knit but I love other people's knitting. I like wool if it is soft. Alpaca, as noted above, is my fave. Bite me, cashmere! Alpaca is better and cheaper. hehe. I like blues and purples best but jewel tones and warm neutrals, caramel, chocolate etc are nice too.   67. Is your Amazon WL up-to-date? I think so!   68. If you were to receive handmade caramels, would it matter if they were made with raw cream (unpasteurized)? would be fine!   69. Would you enjoy getting a sampling of quality incense taken from various sources? Are there types of incense you know you don't like? Would you want a burner for loose incense and a few charcoals to get you started with that, or would you rather stick to simpler types? love incense. Don't have a charcoal burner, they scare me a bit, but cones and sticks are great.   70. I know we already had a question about needed kitchen accessories, but what about spices? would be loved.   71. Would you like handmade stationary or cards? How about a quill pen?   Handmade cards would be great! Quill pen would be amazing, but prolly too involved for me to use.   72. On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being "gimme that ghost pepper!" and 1 being "oh, that's a bit too much black pepper for me" Where is your heat tolerance? hm, fairly high, but I like hot flavor, not hot for hot's sake. I guess about a 7?   73. What is your favorite type of Halloween candy? chocolates, especially the Russell Stover individually wrapped ones, ESPECIALLY the coconut nests. But really, any chocolate. And the white chocolate MnMs.   74. Do you need or want any cosy footwear, like fluffy slippers, or slipper socks etc? slipper socks are great!   75. What do you most look forward to each Fall? Halloween. Cooler weather. Not having to go out and water stuff every day. lol   76. What gadgets do you use in your everyday life and would you like a cool case for them - with your favourite fandom or artwork or saying? I love my Galaxy s3, and they do have cool cases with Doctor Who or Supernatural on them, just have never bought one.   77. Are there any beauty accessories you need or would like? For example make-up brushes, facial brushes or eyelash curlers. wouldn't turn down a new powder brush.   78. Would you be disappointed to get one big box, or would you prefer a bunch of little ones? And would you be disappointed if your witch actually had it together early and sent it to you sooner than later? either is fine, and timing doesn't matter.   79. Stores are putting out their halloween PJs and undies! Would you be happy to get any in a package? And if so, what size? For PJ pants, do you like cotton or flannel? I love pj pants! mens large plz. Cotton or flannel is great.   80. Do you like M&Ms? yes, especially dark chocolate, the ones with nuts, and white chocolate (see above)   81. How about wax melts? like them.   82. Would you like a subscription for Spotify? I don't know enough about it. I like Pandora a lot.   83.

I went there some years back and it is such a cool place.   87. Would you be interested in any of the items in LisaNut's etsy shop? mmm, pretty...everything! hehe   88. Spiders (as in cute knit kind) yes or no? huh, I guess, as long as they don't look real. lol   89. Pillows (the mostly decorative type)? don't really need any right now.   90.

Paintbox addendum

Just a note to my Switch Witch, should you be considering my comments about the Paintbox Weenies: I think I put in my questionnaire that I don't/can't use scrubs. Would love soaps or lotions in any scent mentioned though, or even wax tarts. Or just a gift card. Not sayin anything, just sayin. hehe

Switch Witch fall 2017, part deux

Are you a gamer? If so, what games are you currently playing and is there any merch for that game you'd love to have?-not really a gamer, I play a few things on my Kindle Fire for fun but not sure if there is any merch there,
If you are a gamer do you have a steam/gamestop/amazon wishlist?

How do you feel about the following scarf options (assuming you're into scarves)? love em all. Just because I knit and crochet does not mean I don't love to get yarny gifts from others. Simple eyelet scarf Chevron scarf Lacy and fuzzy Skinny rib knit (extra long for lots of wrapping) Leafy!

Like Wine? What kinds? sweeter, mostly. Moscato on the white side, and Sweet Walter red, are my faves. Don't like dry.

Would you be interested in a set of hand-made hair falls? It's something I do for fun and I can make any length and do an array of colors! huh, never thought about it. I would love anything my witch makes.

For those who watch certain movies every year for Halloween, what are those movies, whether horror or not? Any favorite horror movies that aren't necessarily on the annual-viewing list? How do you feel about fan-made merch for these movies? I try to watch Nightmare Before Christmas, Young Frankenstein, and Rocky Horror! And anything from those is welcome. I caution however that I don't have much time for cleaning with full time caregiving, so knick knacks and dust catchers, while appreciated, will probably be put away so they don't have to be dusted. lol

9/12/17

Here's a great local soapmaker I love--y'all see anything you would like? https://littleseedfarm.com/ I posted this question, lol. I buy this at my local Kroger actually.

What are your favorite/preferred Halloween/autumn icons/images? Any to specifically stay away from? I like Dia de los Muertos, and fall non-Halloween-specific, simply because that way they can stay up from Sept 21 to the weekend after Thanksgiving. lol

Do you eat candy, and if so would Halloween candy be welcome? Specialty candy from local or unusual sources? Chocolate? candy yes! preferably chocolate, but also like those Sweettarts skulls and bones, lol. Reeses, Kit Kat, Snickers, Twix, teeny Hershey bars, I could go on and on.

Do you want Fidget spinners, desk toys, or other frivolous things that you look at and decide you don't need enough to spend $ on but would make you happy to have? not really, thanks

Any zentangle lovers, people who would like to try it, or would you want a piece of someone else's zentangle art? sure! I am not good at it but I try, would love to see somebody else's.

Any love of hair toys, clips, ribbons, fascinators, mini hats, etc? sparkly rhinestone bobby pins are the only thing I can think of that i use.

What local goodies may be of interest? Local Honey, jams,candy? yes please

Are you interested in any prescription services like serial magazines, Birch box, ipsy? don't know much about them.

Would you like funky Halloweenie costume makeup like Gothic eyelashes, nail effects, black lipstick, etc.? not really, as I won't get out again this year to use them.

How do you like to listen to music? CD, 8 track tape, mix tape, Pandora or Spotify, I-tunes? cd's, Pandora

Do you prefer reading on Kindle or actual book? What kind of books do you like? Would you like to be surprised with a scary, classic, horror book? Kindle or actual=yes like them both. Any books are welcomed.

Candles, Incense, or wax tarts? Do you have favorite brands or Weenies scents for the home? Would you like to receive a wax tarts burner, incense burner, essential oils diffuser, or Halloweenie themed candle holders? I have a good wax melter and a good incense burner. I like all of the above. I love Super Tarts wax melts the best--https://shopsupertarts.com/
Here's the scent list-- https://www.facebook.com/notes/super-tarts-and-sassy-soaps/scent-descriptions/595981633802121/
Ones I want to try include Catwoman, Deadpool, Gamora, Ballgame, Luke and Leia, Saw, Texas Chainsaw, Red Rum, Butterbeer, Giles

Witchee: are you interested in crafting materials? of course. I make stuff.
 
Here's a few questions from me: Would you like some Halloween or other themed decor in the form of a banner, something like this
http://www.etsy.com/...n-decor-vintage? If so, would you prefer a traditional style or a vertical door type? a door banner would be neat!

Do you live near a Trader Joe's? If not, are you interested in trying any of the numerous Pumpkin goodies they come out with this time every year? yes but it might as well be on the moon. I can't go anywhere without taking mom anymore and that makes trips short and hurried of necessity. I would love anything they have.


9/14/17

Do any of you potential Witchees have any kitties, puppers, or youngling humans you want spoiled in your packages? What treats or toys do they like? one of my cats likes catnip but I make her a mouse every now and then. The other could not care less.

Is there any interest in any of the fragrance oils from the Nocturne Alchemy Weenies update? yes! I would like backups of Jack's Halloween Oudh and Sisters of the Moon.

Is there anything you want from the trading post (or trading post etsy) that is available to order right now? (Fatherhood, Puppers, normal GC things) will check when I get time

Does ny of this appeal? Would you like anything from my local farmer's market? all of the above!

Anything from Strobe Cosmetics (http://strobecosmetics.com)? Lovely stuff! I do like the dragon eyeshadows. As noted previously though,
