Esty Favorites list http://www.etsy.com/people/Sheyona/favorites?ref=favorites
Baked Goods?
yup, i like baking them but i bet my husband would love to get stuff made my other people. I like cookies without nuts.
Family Prezzies?
If you want to feel free but my husband is picky and my cat is on a restricted diet. She only eats greenie treats and shouldnt have fish or wheat.
Bottles/lots of little samples?
Either one, really.
Groupons or similar deals/gift certificates?
no thanks, especially because they don;t have one for my city and it's a 2.5hr train trip to the local one which they do have coupouns for.
T-Shirt/PJ size
T-shirt size answered in the questionaire and i don't wear pj's
Mix CDs
I'm willing to try most anything but i abhor rap and country. I like folk though.
Hallowe'en plans?
Not sure yet. Might try to go to the local showing of rocky horror. It's hard to plan for things that take us out of the house in an evening because of our cat.
Girly Index:
I wear long dresses, scarves, and have long hair. However i don;t wear makeup or nail polish. I also unabashedly wear glasses rather than contacts.
Soft/plushy things
Adore the little plushie microbes from Thinkgeek. I gave them as christmas prezzies last year. Most plushy items in my house end up with the cat anyhow.

Jane Austen?
I tried once... not my style.
Do you read Tarot cards? If not, would you be interested?
Yes and whereas i like having the deck i have another few wouldn't go amis. As is i am (and have been for 6 years now) working on a personal deck.
eBooks
No thank you. I adore the tactile sensations of a book in my hands. The silky feel of the paper. The heft of the cover... Yeah i'm way more into the books. Plus i find them easier on my eyes than trying to read large segments of backlit text from a screen.
Guilty TV pleasure
I don't watch television for the most part. We have one but it's hooked up to game systems and a dvd player.
Cosplay/costume

COMIC BOOKS. Do you read them? Are there any series you like, or some you would like to try?

Warm drinks?
TEA!
When you go to an etsy wishlist, it will tell you what things are sold. If you click on the sold item, sometimes it will give options that are similar to what was sold, but not identical, would you like the similar item or prefer not to get it at all unless it's the same item? How picky are you?
Not picky most of the time. But i don't often wear jewelry so on that i am picky. I also am picky that none of the bath and body goods have any allergens in them.
Do you wear make up?
Not enough to justify keeping them around.
Disney movies, Yay or Nay, and favourites if you do like them?
I like disney but my husband abhors them. It will be very amusing to me if our eventual child likes them loads.

Sadly at the moment only a DVD player, which sucks because we have quite a few VHS tapes staring forlornly at us.

Who is your favorite soap etailer?
well i don't often buy soap online because of allergens but i've got stuf from tarty and it was nice.
What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc?
My husband is amazingly clumsy so we tend not to keep around fragile decorative items. That being said i love teapots and the more we have the better because it means less of a scramble to replace them when he drops one.
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 have no preference. I know i tend to send 2-3 boxes a round myself just because i love the squeeing.

No sorry.

Yeah postcards are nice and i'd be glad to send on behalf of other people as well.
