S'mores?

YES!!!!! I love toasty marshmallows. Yum!

 

Neatest freebie I've ever received?

I was swapping with Betsy and I received three frimps right off my wish list including Liz which she is searching for more decants/bottles of. I am so thankful that she was willing to give me a sample of a scent that she was looking for. It was so thoughtful :)

 

Would you enjoy receiving cute but useful items like colorful kitchen utensils/gadgets, or bento supplies? (boxes, chopsticks, accessories, etc?) What about things like spice mixes (homemade, or Penzey's for example)

I have a lot of kitchen gadgets already, but they are pretty cool. So I don't know if I need anymore gadgets (there's not much room left in the kitchen). As for spices - we are gluten free (well I'm not but my dad has celiac and we make dinner as a family) and it is difficult to find stuff that we are guarenteed to work. I don't want to make any extra work for a switch witch by making the gluten free thing a huge deal so it is probably safer to say no spices, but yes to small interesting kitchen gadgets.

 

Do you like cute, seasonal or fluffy PJ bottoms? Like they sell at Target, Old Navy (they have had cute Halloween ones!) If so, what size do you wear? :)

I love pj bottoms!!!!! I have relatively large hips and thighs and tend to move around a lot when sleeping/lounging so if they are too small I tend to rip them :( I'm now about a 10/12 in terms of sizing - at least for bottoms. I've gained some weight due to a knee injury last November that still isn't healed and I'm waiting a referral to a surgeon, but I'm trying to lose some but it's hard when I can't physically be active as I used to be.

 

What kind of chocolate do you like? Nuts, no nuts, white,dark, etc? I love chocolate - especially dark with caramel, salt and or peanut butter. Yum :yum:

 

I live near a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Penzeys! What does your little heart desire from any or all of these places?

I've never been to any of these places - but I've heard wonderful things about a salted caramel chocolate bar from Trader Joe's which seems right up my alley.

 

Are home made foods acceptable or does the idea of eating strange mailed food disturb you?

Acceptable, but I worry about customs stealing your wonderful goodies.

 

I just gave you $20 and sent you into a "has everything" store ala Walmart and told you that you have to come out having spent it all, and none of it on anything you need. What would you buy? Be as specific as possible!

Very difficult. I'd probably buy a chocolate bar (with peanut butter) as I don't need it but love them. I'd actually probably just end up in the makeup section - I don't necessarily need more makeup but I'm thinking of getting a cooler toned purplish blush (but since I'm super fair I'm not sure how it would look) and red lipstick - I've always wanted some but am too chicken to actually pay money for some and some nude/pinkish lipstick that is like my lips but better (mine are fairly rosy naturally so many nude colours look ridiculous). With that I'd probably end up over the $20 but depending on the brand I might be under.

 

What kind of cuisines do you like? (I mentioned this in my ?aire but curious what my witch may like)And, what are your favorite restaurants?

Thai is my favourite, but I'm not terribly picky about cuisine!!! I love spicy food so many Asian and African cuisines appeal to me. Although I really love a good burger joint - not fast food but fresh made burgers. There's one rather close to wear I live called Burger Heaven - they make the best burgers ever!

 

Question! what are your "fandoms" and would you like a t-shirt from TeeFury if an appropriate one came up?

First I had to look up TeeFury - very cool if not dangerous site. Fandoms I love: Harry Potter, Firefly, Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire, Once Upon a Time, Mass Effect, Legend of Zelda - I think that is most of them and I would love an appropriate Tee - because I am a super nerd!

 

Do you have an eReader and if so which one?

No eReader here.

 

Do you like candles, or tart burners, or something? If so, what's your favorite scent to burn?

Candles are alright - but my mom seems to collect them, so I don't really need any and don't have a tart or oil burner.

 

Marzipan?

No thanks :sick:

 

Do you drink alcohol and if so, would you be OK with your witch sending you homemade infused vodka? Also, does your state allow alcohol to be shipped through the mail (for example, PA doesn't). I don't really drink that much, but either way it doesn't matter because you can't ship alcohol in BC I think.

 

If you get me (or a fellow Aussie, if there are any playing this round) as a witch or witch's minion, would you like to try some Australian specialties, such as TimTams (delicious chocolately cookies), Caramello Koalas (koala shaped chocolates filled with gloopy caramel), Australian native spices or anything like that? Anything Aussie is fine with me with the exception of Marmite and Vegemite - I just don't understand the appeal, much to yeasty for me.

 

If your witch is a knitter, crocheter or sewer, is there a particular type of garment you would love to receive (hat, scarf, wrap, cowl, socks, fingerless gloves, arm warmers etc)?

I love all things knitted. But if I had to choose one (because apparently I am greedy for all things knitted) I would love long (like knee high socks) that would stretch to at least 16 inches for the calves. I love knitted socks for rain boots. I think I mentioned this is the questionnaire, but I love knits so much it warrants mentioning here as well.

 

Is there anyone else in your house (kids, pets, partner) that would really appreciate a small gift being included for them in the switchwitchy haul so they don't feel left out?

No one in particular (I'm part of a pretty small family (no siblings).

 

How would you feel about a taste of (insert witch location here) box?

I love things from other places :) Very cool!

 

Would you be interested in having a bat adopted in your name? No thanks - Bats kind of scare me.

 

Muslin Paper Towels?

Awesome - I could use them like facecloths which I go through a lot of for masks and OCM

 

Some of your favorite artists? Classic and modern?

HaHa. I instantly thought this meant musicians - I love music. But I think it actually means painters. I like interesting and somewhat aesthetically pleasing. Since I studied Dance and Communications in University I did some study of other types of art as a requirement for my degree I learned that I was not the biggest fan of some modern art - I'm not a huge fan of the really abstract "throw paint at walls and call it art," for lack of a better term

 

If you could have an image or certain subject painted for you on any type of "canvas" (on a box, on paper, on a canvas, and so on) - could you point your witch to some of these images?

I don't have any specific images, but I love many tarot images (like the High Priestess and the Empress in terms of specific symbols) and I love fantasy creatures like elves and unicorns.

 

Is there a GC scent that's been on your list for ages but keeps falling off the bottom of your order because of the LEs? Bottle wise - I keep putting off buying Perversion and Eat Me. Imp wise I keep meaning to get Lurid but I get distracted and never manage to get an imp (it's supposed to be similar to black pearl from LUSH which I love and obviously forgot to mention in my questionnaire)

 

I've been getting into indie nail polish brands recently. What's your favorite indie brand of nail polish? Or what's your favorite mainstream brand of nail polish? Or are you not big on polish?

I don't have a favourite nail polish - but I love painting my nails.

 

Stuffed things: yea or nay?

Depends - I have a huge amount of stuffies, so I don't need more, but sometimes they are just too cute to resist.

 

mix-in-a-jar? How to you feel about cookie or cake or soup mixes that come in jars and you just add, like, an egg or water or what have you?

Very cool - I love baking and if it is contained I should be able to keep it away from my father and his celiac.
