would you still want the project if it was a craft fail????

Hee hee! Definitely! I'm sure it can be useful in other ways!

 

October 20th

 

Do you need any winter wear, witchee?

A warm hat or headband in place of earmuffs would be nice! My ears really hurt if they get even a little cold or exposed to wind.

 

I've read something about a Event Exclusive called Pumpkin Hard Candy (if someone knows the details, shout it out because I am still searching). Are you interested in this scent? How desperate are you for it?

Oooh! Sounds great to me! I always go pumpkin crazy during this season!

 

Going back to the question about winter wear, are there any colors you would prefer not to have?

Not to have? Not really.... Well, I wouldn't wear oranges or yellows very often. That is, if it was a solid orange or solid yellow.

 

October 14th

 

Do you like scary books? What's the best/scariest thing you've ever read?

I like scary books, but I can't do scary movies! They get too real for me! I used to love Goosebumps way back when and that is the scariest thing I can think of right now. Some of those stories were quite creepy!

 

So I was at Uwajimaya the other day and saw Earl Grey Tea Chocolate and Cinnamon Chocolate. If you were my Witchee, would you be interested in trying something like that?

Sounds yummy to me!

 

October 13th

 

Are you interested in anything in the latest round of Lab auctions on eBay?

 

What favorite song(s) would you think would translate into a cool or unique scent?

 

Anyone interested in VApothecary's Halloween update?

 

Interested in anything from the Beaver Moon Lunacy update?

 

I sent you with $20 into a drugstore/Walmart (nothing too fancy/imported/expensive, just your average selection), and you are restricted only to the candy aisle. What would you blow it on?

 

October 11th

 

What is your favorite kind of cookie?

That is impossible to say! I love Snickerdoodles, chocolate chip, M&M cookies, double chocolate, pumpkin cookies, peanut butter and chocolate cookies.... I LOVE COOKIES! Mmmm!

 

How many boxes are you hoping for?

As many as you care to send me dear witch!

 

How do you feel about loose leaf tea in baggies? I mean, I have a TON of loose leaf, would it be okay if I send you samples in some zip lock baggies? Or is that something that would squick you out?

I love samples as long as they're clearly labeled with the brand and everything! I'd hate to get an amazing sample and then not know exactly what it was!

 

How would you feel about getting a custom poster with your favorite quote on it and some cool graphics? I'm an architecture student and can print posters (provided I make them) at pretty much any size using Adobe Illustrator at a low price. Also if you would be interested in this, what quotes would you like?

 

 

October 9th

 

Is there anything you would want from NYCC, something you'd like your witch to ask me to pick up?

 

The best thing I ever ate...:

 

October 6th

 

Do you like liquorice? If so, hard or soft? Sweet or salt? Normally salted or so salt it pulls your face into a fishy shape? And which shapes do you like?

I can't do black licorice. The taste is just too icky for me! I like red licorice though! Definitely sweet!

 

Mac using witchees, what computers do you use? What peripherals/accessories do you have and what would you LIKE to have? What do you use your computer for?

I've been meaning to purchase the Adobe Creative Suite (Production one) for my Mac for a few years now. DEFINITELY don't expect you to do that for me, my witch! I have an iMac with loads of unused hard drive space!

 

Do you like listening to audiobooks? Would you like to receive one, and if you would, what sort of audiobook would you like--or is there a particular audiobook you've been meaning to get?

I've always wanted to get in to audiobooks, but I just never have made the leap. I'm allowed to use my iPod at work quite often and my music gets boring sometimes... I think I'd go for a book that I've read before (one of my favorite fantasies) or something educational to get my mind working.

 

October 5th

 

Are there any DIY / Crafty / Free / Budget items you'd love to get but haven't noted yet? (Or, maybe you'd just like to emphasize something you may have only noted in passing?)

Hmmmmm, can't think of anything at the moment. I do like being crafty though!

 

Do you own a DSLR camera? Are you interested in a minky camera strap like these? What about anything from Photojojo?

I just have a small Canon digital camera. Very happy with it, but no camera strap necessary!

 

Is anybody else into film photography? Interested in receiving film, supplies, etc from Lomography?

Hee hee! I actually used to want to become a film editor (hence the wanting the Adobe Production Suite). I'm not sure if it is quite right for me though nowadays. Being cooped up in a room staring at a computer screen for hours sounds a bit maddening. I love doing it as a hobby though! Might come back to editing though.... Just can't decide!

 

Are you musically inclined? Do you play an instrument or sing? If so, what?

I used to play the clarinet, but I haven't used it since high school. I always wanted to learn the trumpet though. The only singing I do is in the shower!

 

 

October 3rd

 

Does anyone else like collector Barbies?

I would have when I was younger! Not really my thing anymore.

 

What small everyday items would you like, that you keep forgetting to get?

 

Tarot

I have been wanting to get a tarot deck/learn tarot for awhile now!! I think I would just like to have it for the art though. Well, and maybe for parties! I LOVE the work of Stephanie Pui-Mun Law!

 

Tell me about something you like, and why you like it.

 

If you're the MMU type of Witchee, what Geek Chic Cosmetics tickle your fancy?

 

Would any witchees be interested inQuinn Popcorn?

Sounds tasty! I love popcorn! Oooooh, that rosemary and parmesan one sounds sooooo yummy!

 

October 2nd

 

Who likes silly items from Archie McPhee???

 

Nocturne Alchemy's NAlloween Pt. 2 update is live here! (And for a few days, last month's update too.) What do you want?

 

 

What are you drooling over from the Sock Dreams Halloween stuff?

 

Luck charms?

I do believe I'd go for anything on that list!

 

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?

I like peanuts, sunflower seeds and pistachios, not really any others though!

I plan to!

 

Would you be interested in the #occupywallstreet scent?

Yes!

September 30th

 

Witchee, would you like anything from this particular Haunt update?

I like Haunt soaps!

 

Who's interested in Halloween: Montreal?

Me!! Sounds interesting.

 

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?

 

how do you feel about hemp? jewelry, soap, etc?

No on jewelry, but I'd say anything else is fair game!

 

Is there a magazine that you DON'T read because you can't find it near you, but wish you could?

Can't think of anything specific! I have been wanting to get a subscription to Women's Health.

 

Describe your sense of humour.

According to my SO, I am good and giggly. I'd say I am a bit sarcastic/find strange things funny. I get it from my dad! For example, I was reading a children's story to these five year old girls. There was this one part where the little boy's sister took his class pet lizard (salamander?) of some kind and accidentally drops it down the garbage disposal. She goes to turn on the light to fish it out and..... Yeah, she turns on the garbage disposal. The book actually wrote out the whirring sound of the garbage disposal and after reading that I just burst out laughing and could not continue the story. It was just hilarious in a "I can't believe this is in a children's book" way. I also think this is hilarious.

 

Do you like reusable grocery bags? If so, do you like the kind that fold up (ie Chico Bags?)

I love those things! I think I have all I need for the moment though! I purchased quite a few through my local grocery store!

 

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?

I've never bought or tried anything from Sephora. If they had a sampler of some kind that would be awesome!

 

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?

I actually don't really have a purse. Really need to get one in the future! I'd say... something with a long strap for cross body or just hanging off my shoulder. I like designs, but I think I'd lean towards greyish/darker colors. Well, not dark exactly, but not bright. I like prints, but I'd definitely prefer something a little less eye catching.

 

julep maven monthly boxes:

Sounds interesting!

 

Your favorite restaurant or type of food to eat out. Would you use a restaurant.com voucher? Groupon?

Sounds good to me! I love Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Mexican.... there really are very few cuisines that I don't like!

 

Like commercial socks?

Yes!

 

What kind of bear is best?

A honey bear! Though I would take some gummy bears as well!

Who here likes Stephanie Pui-Min Law's artwork?

I do! She's fantastic! I sent a print of hers to one of my last witchees!

 

Do you drink wine?

I do indeed! In fact, I am making some wine at the moment! I like all types of wine. It really just depends on my mood. My favorite winery is Bridlewood in the Santa Ynez, CA area.

 

Is it just me who is nervous at revealing herself to her witchee, and finding out who her witch is?!

I can't wait to reveal myself to my witchee! I am nervous about my Witch though. I just never know if I answer questions right and if I am a good witchee! I always seem to fall behind on the questions.

 

Witches, did you lament NOT getting one of the condom case/imp cases that got released with the courtesan series???

I do. Those things were awesome, but I wasn't allowed to make purchases at that time...

 

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?

This may sound silly, but I actually don't like candy corn. I think it is the waxy texture that just throws me off....

 

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?

 

It'sBanned Books Week! Are there any books on the list you'd be interested in checking out?

 

I have just been enlightened to THESE. Are these flavors relevant to your interests?

September 26th

 

Is there any kind of international candy you love or would like to try?

I LOVE the Crunchie bar from Cadbury. At least I think that is what it is.... I received it from a lovely forumite as a gift and It's fantastic! I am sure there are other types I have never thought of trying and all are definitely fair game! As long as there are no nuts (except peanuts or pistachios).

 

What is something totally random (yes, that thing that just popped into your head) that hasn't been covered by any previous questions?

Ummm, I just realized the other day that Netflix does not have the most recent Phantom of the Opera movie for streaming. I was so hoping to watch it the other day!

 

Is there any cheesy/non-cheesy Canadian stuff you'd be interested in?

 

If you were to go here and create your very own chocolate bar, what might it have in it?

Definitely! Sounds tasty!

 

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?

Besides the brushing of teeth, I don't really have any bedtime rituals. For the most part, I fall asleep fairly easily!

 

Are you interested in today's/any recent Tee Fury shirts?

 

Princess Bride? Yay or nay?

So much yay! I LOVE this movie/book!

 

What's your favorite classic fairytale, witches

For fairytale? I always loved the Twelve Dancing Princesses. The art for that story is always amazing! The book was The Golden Treasury of Fairy Tales (yeah, that book has moved with me through every aparment/living change) and I would always skip straight to that story! I will have to come back to this question. I LOVE Fairy Tales!!

 

September 24th

 

how do you feel about ethical animal fiber, i.e. wool and the like?

I love the idea! Just as long as it isn't scratchy!

 

What about little wee creatures for your desk or mantel?

Sounds adorable to me!

 

Look down. What are you wearing, right now?

 

Kerchiefs?

I'm afraid I wouldn't wear anything like that! My hair is one of my favorite features and I love to show it off! Sadly I have to wear it in a tight bun every day for work....

 

It's the weekend, and you find yourself without a single chore or responsibility for a few hours. Right this very moment, what's the one thing you would do if you could do anything?

 

September 23rd

 

 

Is there anything you'd like from the Mütter Museum Store?

What are the feelings on arm warmers? Color, style, texture, length?

Yes please! I used to have a tart burner, but it got lost in the move. I still have my lovely oil burner though! I love candles of all kinds!

 

What's your favorite flavor? Sour, sweet, bitter, salty?

I think I am definitely going to go with sweet! I have such a sweet tooth that my SO makes fun of me for all the time.

 

So, are there any online gaming witchees who covet purchasable in-game items or other gamer-y stuff? (yup, geek question)

What is your favorite coffee blend at Starbucks? If you don't have one, what is your favorite roast of coffee?

 

September 21st

 

Cthulhu: yay or nay?

Yay to Cthulhu/Cthulu mythos stuffs. I have some Lovecraft stories, but I just haven't been able to get into them. They're so.... dense.

 

Is there something that you wish you could do, but you keep putting it off?

I wish..... I wish I could go to the RenFaire. It's already closed though and I just didn't make it. I also wish I could visit Door County in Northern WI. It sounds pleasant and nice! And, something more important.... I wish I could get up the nerve to go bra shopping. I needed new bras months ago. And a new fitting.

 

Put your current mp3player (I am the anti-apple, so no ipod ), winamp playlist, what have you, on shuffle, list the first 10 songs:

 

Witchee, have you made (or are you planning to make) any Lab or Trading post orders soon? And if you did (or plan to), you should share what you're getting

I caved and made a TP order for: Honey Pumpkin Stout Bath Oil, Marshmallow Pumpkin Bath Oil, and Honey Pumpkin Stout Soap. I am also doing a BPAL Weenie decant circle, so I will get to try those. So excited!

 

Do you have any interest in rocks? Not like, polished colorful stones.. but like... rocks. With geologic significance!

 

If your witch were to knit you a scarf/shawl/cowl, which would you prefer, and what features would you want? Would you prefer something light and drape-y or thick and warm? What kind of colors would you prefer? Do you have any fiber allergies or preferences?

 

If you have a pet, could you please post a photo of it? I really need to see what your pet, if you have one, looks like.

I really really wish I could have a cat. I would love you forever if you would convince my SO to get allergy shots!

 

Do you like/own/wear/want fairy wings or something of the like?

No thanks! I don't wear stuffs like that too often (probably only on Halloween) and I wouldn't want a lovely gift like that sitting in my closet!

 

How do you feel about terrariums?

I'd be nervous I'd kill it....

 

What's your favorite horror movie?

 

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.

Tea? PG Tips and the Pumpkin Spice Tea from Eastern Shore Tea Company. Bath products? I use whatever soap I can find in the house and my Tresemme Naturals Shampoo and Conditioner. My hair loves it!

 

Jane Austen .. Yay or Nay?

I love the movie Lost in Austen! I have probably seen it around five or ten times now even though it is a longish movie. I've read Pride and Prejudice, but haven't managed to get ahold of any others! I guess that would be a yay!

 

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?

 

Do you like period or period-styled paraphernalia? Stuff like postcards, notecards, jewelry, office supplies, what-have-you?

 

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 do I do I do! I LOVE ComicCon! Wish I could go to the one in San Diego. I like the story and all, but I really love the artwork! One anime that I can think of that I have been thinking about getting ahold of for just the artwork is Spice and Wolf!

 

If you could choose a Smack, what would it have in it?

 

if you could have a salon scent made, based on any artwork(s) what would it be?

 

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.?

Always! I love being creative!

 

What's 'your' song/your theme song?

Hard choice! I have so many! Well, my theme song for right now is Tonight, Tonight by Hot Chelle Rae. Had to look that up! I didn't actually know what the song was called or the name of the band. I'd also say Sognami by Biagio Antonacci speaks to me as well!

 

What would be your superpower?

Well, I think I would get the most out of telekinesis, but I really have always wanted wings and to be able to fly!

 

Witchee, would you like a gently used BPAL tshirt?

Sure!

 

Do you like homemade snack mixes? I know Puppy Chow was mentioned in a previous question, but what about healthier and more natural type snacks like granola or trail mix? You can put a lot of delicious and fun things into trail mix, yeah? 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!

 

Do you like charm bracelets? If you had a bracelet, what sort of charms would you want on it? Favorite hobbies, symbols, whatever?

 

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.

I love those! I actually have a set.

 

Do you like Legos? Especially mini-fig key chains, Lego block keychains, small Lego sets, etc?

 

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.

 

Are there any characters that you love or identify with?

LOVE Ardeth Bay from the Mummy, Tony Stark from Iron Man, Neil Caffrey from White Collar, Malcolm Renolds from Firefly, Richard Castle from Castle, and first season Chuck from Chuck! I identify with Willow from the early seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Kaylee from Firefly.

 

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?

 

Are there any Arcana Weenies that you MUST HAVE?

I don't think I have really tried any Arcana. I am very happy with one perfume company obsession!

 

So what say you? IS an "unexpected" visit/in-person witching OK?

Definitely! Just give me warning to clean, or meet me in a public place so I don't have to clean!

 

September 19th

 

What strange misc. items would you love to receive that you just haven't gotten for yourself?:

Hmmmmm. I'm not sure. I guess I might have a few on my Etsy wishlist. I'd say... I think I need to think about this one a bit more.

 

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?

Looks cool to me! I just don't wear nail polish too often. Not allowed at my work. I do like deep burgundy, creams, purples... Colors!

 

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?

LOVE Lip balm! I use Burts Bees most often. I love the tinted ones! I can always use more since the dry season is coming. I definitely prefer twist up to all the other kinds.

 

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)

Sounds fun! I've never really used one before, but they sound nice and I do like drawing.

 

-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)

I'm afraid I don't really paint too often. I used to use acrylics and would love to try again, but I was never good with watercolor.

 

-How do you feel about getting art supplies in general? (copic markers, watercolor, brushes, paint, sketchbooks etc.)

Definitely favorable!!

 

-How do you feel about Threadless tshirts?

Like! Of course there are some I like better than others. Love this one! And this!

 

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?

I guess it is a bit more than $20, but I have really been wanting to try this: http://www.olay.com/skin-care-products/olay-professional/advanced-cleansing-system?pid=075609037047 It sounds interesting and I want to see if it will help my problem skin. I've also had my eye on the Giovanni Detox Face stuffs for awhile now.

 

Darling Witchee, would you enjoy farmer's market pickled veggies (green beans, garlic, asparagus, etc) or fresh canned peaches or something of that nature?

Oh, my! That sounds HEAVENLY! Looooooove peaches, asparagus, garlic, green beens.... The only thing I don't really like are peppers. Also, pickles themselves are soooo tasty and wouldn't last more than a day in my house!

 

Do you prefer color or white photographs? Nature or abstract?

Definitely nature/landscape/scenic photos (even city ones). As for color v. black and white, I think it all depends on the picture itself! I definitely love color, but I like how elegant black and white can be.

 

would you be interested in something like this?

https://lostcrates.com/how-it-works

Could be interesting. Not sure if it is really my thing though.

 

Amigurumi, yes or no?

Adorable!! Definitely a yes!

 

I have a question! What are some of your favorite paintings? (famous or undiscovered?) Feel free to link to examples!

 

If you could have an image painted for you - sky is the limit - what would it be?

 

Name your 3 favorite scents for candles

Ooooh! Vanilla definitely. Annnnnd.... pumpkin spice? Oh, and maybe amber? Never had an amber candle, but it sounds awesome to me!

 

Name your 3 favorite types/flavors of tea

Love English Breakfast, Pumpkin Spice, and .... jasmine!! I love me my black teas! Oh, though I do prefer decaf. I have waaaaay too many caffeinated teas and I am trying to cut back. It isn't good for my heart.

 

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 pretty much live in t-shirts! I work in a place where the dress code is fairly laid back, so I pretty much only wear t-shirts and yoga pants every day. I prefer size large for the most part. I would LOVE a shirt designed by my witch! I think that sounds awesome! Let's see, I have quite a few shirts with tigers on it from the Rainforst Cafe, one with Richard on it (he is awesome!), a few solid color ones, one from Mt. Shasta, one Doctor Who shirt... Yeah, I think pretty much anything I like is fair game to be put on a t-shirt!

 

How do you feel about pumpkin scented things? Not perfume related, but soap, candles, etc.... YES PLEASE! I always am in the mood for pumpkin things when this time of year rolls around. I had a pumpkin soap from Moonalisa that was AMAZING! I love smelly candles as well! Can't do incense though.

 

Has anyone else heard of or does anyone else love Glamourkin?

The Etsy shop? I think the stuffs there are adorable, but I don't think I would really wear anything like that.

 

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.

I can't think of anything specific... but I always love international things!!

 

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 don't really have anything special for my mac. No wireless stuffs, etc. Well, I do have Final Cut Pro which I love!

 

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?

I'm afraid I don't like this type of sock. The toes just are so uncomfortable in general for me...

 

September 17th

 

Are you looking for a certain kind of DVDs to spruce up your collection right now?

I love DVDs! You know, I have meaning to acquire Eurotrip for the longest time now. Also Dangerous Beauty, Witchblade (the live action tv show), Sleeping Beauty... I'm sure I could come up with more, but I am drawing a blank at the moment.

 

Does anyone like postcards? Is anyone willing to be a Nacho witch for postcards?

Ooooh! Yes!!

 

Anyone going to see any good concerts this fall?

I wish! I haven't been to a concert in awhile. I was thinking about trying to see a musical in the future, but none of my favorites are in town.

 

Do you like Star Trek? Original TV series, films, spinoff series, etc? Favorite characters?

YES! I will always love TNG the most. I think that I had one of my earliest not quite crushes on him when I was little. It was one of my Dad's favorite shows, so we used to watch it all the time (and Patrick Stewart is AWESOME!!). My SO and I are actually watching all the episodes in order right now (yay, netflix!) I absolutely loved the newest Star Trek movie!! Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto? YES PLEASE!

 

Witchee, would you like a framed photograph and of what?

Ooooooh! I would LOVE one! Ellebelle's photos are FABULOUS! I love nature photos/scenic photos the most. A bridge over a river, bright autumn colors, beautiful trees, a wooded path... Yep!

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 have need of some new measuring cups. *sigh* Somehow I lost most of them, so I have one 1/4th cup and one full cup left and both look like they are developing cracks! I LOVE cookbooks! I have been meaning to get this one for awhile now. I'd also love bread cookbooks and interesting ethnic food cookbooks. I've been wanting to learn to make thai food and healthy chinese!

 

New question: How do you feel about maple syrup?

Yes! Hee hee!

 

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)

I don't really carry around a purse, but to have something like that that would sit on a desk? Sounds cute!

 

Do you like Star Wars? Original Trilogy? Prequels? Spin-offs? Favorite characters?

I do like Star Wars! I think Darth Vadar from the original series will always be my favorite character. Though Han Solo is a VERY close 2nd. I LOVE Harrison Ford!

 

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 jerkey! Every once in awhile I'll have beef jerkey cravings. I've never really thought of the different types of beef jerkey. I always liked the teriyaki and pepper ones. I think I like the ones that are a little thicker/soft.

 

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.

Sure! Definitely need to be warned if it is NSFW!

 

Doctor Who? Yay or nay? (please don't make me cry by saying nay)

Doctor Who is a HUGE yay! I've been meaning to get this for awhile. Along with this for my dad's christmas present! I haven't managed to see the earlier versions, but I have liked the new series. I will always LOVE David Tennant, but Matt Smith has definitely grown on me!

 

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?

YES!! Wheeeeeee!

 

Anyone love Buffy/Angel?

I do I do! I liked both! I especially LOVED the last season of Angel with Illyria and of course.... SPIKE! I love James Marsters! I like Joss Whedon in general really. LOVED Firefly, Dr. Horrible was awesome, Dollhouse was entertaining...

 

How would you feel about gummies? Like, gummy bears? Gummy werewolves? Gummy vampires?

Mmmm! Sounds tasty!

 

How would you feel about a totally original Gela-skin for your laptop/iPod/phone? Stickers? Decals?

Sounds interesting! I have a case for my IPod already (yay silicone). I've been meaning to get an iPhone for awhile now. I think I am going to get the iPhone 4 even if they come out with a new model soon. Otherwise I have an iMac that I love, but it doesn't need decals.

 

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 love Disney and fairy tale stuffs in general! Mostly in to the princess stories.

 

Are your ears pierced, Witchee? Do you have any other piercings? Would you like to receive any items of jewelry for these piercings?

I have my ears pierced once! Can't wear anything other than sterling silver or gold otherwise my ears get infected. I also don't change my earrings too often for the same reason. I do like earrings though, but I pretty much only stick to posts!

 

How do you all feel about Whoopie Pies?

Sounds tasty to me!

 

 

September 15th

 

interested in anything from Lush?

Not sure. I don't think I have ever actually tried anything from them. Oooh! The Dream Cream body lotion sounds good! It is starting to become itchy dry skin season again. The SCHNUGGLE body butter sounds interesting as well.

 

Do you blog? Would you like a header for your blog, a layout, etc?

I do blog! Well, at least I used to before things got really busy. I guess I could use a new header, but I definitely like the way my blog is laid out at the moment.

 

Would you be interested in a handmade bookmark?

I'm afraid I don't really use bookmarks. I end up just losing them!

 

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?

Sounds interesting! I don't think I have ever heard of either of these!

 

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've never used Groupon! I just looked around a bit and the Getaway deals.... The food ones look awesome as well! I definitely think this website deserves more exploration!!

 

do you like real sugar skulls? Things with sugar skull designs?

I don't think Sugar Skulls are really my thing. I do like them though! Just not.... me.

I love comics and Comic Con! I think Rogue from the XMen is definitely one of my favorites! I also love Witchblade. I've been wanting to read the Soulfire series ever since I saw some of the art at comic con. So pretty! I'm sure there are others, but I just can't think of any at the moment! My dad is a huge collector (our attic is filled with boxes of comics in plastic protectors), so I pretty much grew up with them!

 

Are you musical? Do you play an instrument, and if so, what? If not, what do you wish you could play or do?

September 8th

 

From the Weenie Update....what are you most wanting to try?

Sounds tasty to me! Dried fruits? Other than that I can't think of anything!

 

What GC do you live in mortal terror of the lab discontinuing, but never get around to buying?

Good question! Probably... Sin. Though now I am starting to lean towards Snake Oil. I am about 1/3rd of the way through my first bottle (of two) and I've had it for two years. I wear it practically every day though!

 

Yo, yarnies! Do you Ravelry? If so, who are you over thar?

I do! I am catseyes49!

 

Do you have wishlists for non-BPAL e-tailers? And if so, could you provide a link or a list?

Mac!

 

What is your favorite animal?

Hard to choose! I love many species of birds, horses, cats... I guess those are the main three!

 

What are you going to be for Halloween?

I don't know yet. I wanted to do the Three Musketeers with two other friends, but one moved away... Guess I will have to think up something new!

 

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.)

Hmmmm, I'd definitely love oil painted jewelry or wall art! I guess I would have either a willow tree, a bird, or maybe a moon!

Favorite Mythological Creature?:

Hard choice! I am definitely into Pegasus, unicorns, griffins, Phoenix... and I think I am forgetting a few others! I definitely love fantasy!

 

Do you like hair things barrettes, headbands, flowers

Afraid I just stick to the regular elastic ponytail things. I need three or four to keep my hair back in a bun for work.

 

Expanding on the hair question - does anyone like those flower clips for the hair that are big right now??

I'm afraid I don't think I'd use anything like that. Though I admit I drool over the hair stuffs in GardensofWhimsy's Etsy Shop! I am so going to end up getting something from her for my wedding. Whenever that may be!
