Switch Witch Q&A Fall 2011, PART II.
Started up Switch Witch Answers PART II here! Also now to my Witch you don't have to get me anything I mention here really. I simply answer the questions in case it helps give you a better idea of me and what I like and in case any of the questions are yours! You seem to have a master plan already and I would love to see how it all unfolds. Also. YOU ARE AWESOME.

Do you need any winter wear, witchee?
Not particularly, but I always love socks and fingerless gloves, gloves, mittens, very large cowls, and capes! Winter is my favorite time of the year
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?
Not at all desperate. Do not even want it! I try to keep away from things that are too exclusive.
Going back to the question about winter wear, are there any colors you would prefer not to have?
Hmmmm. Well. I love a LOT of colors and honestly if you are curious just check out my Pinterest for color schemes I love (probably under the What I Would Wear board) but some combinations that I don't really love would be more watery cool kind of combinations? I love winter color schemes and anything rich and almost velvety in color. Autumn colors are pretty spectacular.
October 14th
Do you like scary books? What's the best/scariest thing you've ever read?
I do like scary books! I love Chuck Palahniuk so of course I have read Haunted, so creepy and disturbing...
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?

October 11th
What is your favorite kind of cookie?
What an interesting question. Well the cookies you sent me dear Witch were amazing and pretty spot on if you ask me. I also really like white chocolate in cookies along with healthy ingredients. But seriously the cookies you sent me were AMAZING.

However many my Witch sends! I have gotten so much great stuff already! Socks, cookies, perfume etc. I'm already quite happy I plan on sending off 4 total probably (three small and one large).
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?
That would be awesome. I love tea in all shapes and forms
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.

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?
Crossbody strap always. I like leather and cloth. If it is cloth I prefer bold patterns with few colors (like red, yellow, and cream together or red, grey and cream etc.) If it is leather I prefer brown leathers. Something like bold stripes or large bold geometric prints are really cool. I'm really set on purses though so no need to get me one.
