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 can't use chopsticks but I love kitcheny things & spices/spice mixes. Just not HOT, i can only handle a wee bit o' spicyness.

 

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?

- yes yes yes please :) I love jammie pants & since it gets cold here in winter I get lots of use of them. Also on the hunt for halloweeny slippers. Size medium for pants pls :)

 

What kind of chocolate do you like? Nuts, no nuts, white,dark, etc?

- DARK all the way baby. NOt a big fan of milk or white, although I may eat milk choc if it's there & i'm having a horrible craving. Nuts are fine, although if i had to choose only 1 or the other, i'd pick nutless. I do not really care for 'cheap' chocolate, it is SO sweet it makes me feel sick but I can totally handle the higher end dark choc's...mmmm ;)

 

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 LOVE TJ's & WF...never heard of Penzeys. TJ= COokie Butter!! & Snacking seaweed! Wf..wow too much to list or think of..they have awesome vegan & raw goodies all over that place!

 

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

 

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!

-i boycott Walmart but say Target- Probably baby wipes lol, or maybe a sweater or tops...

 

What kind of cuisines do you like? And, what are your favorite restaurants?

- Indian, Thai, Mex, Italian, ukranian.....Olive Garden, Krispy Kreme (not a restaurant but def a cuisine i love that i can't get here!)...Red Robin (mmm veggie burger!), i like most restaurants as long as they aren't a steakhouse ;)

 

I'm from Canada - is there anything specifically a witchee might like that is only available here?

- maybe something province specific, like DULSE :)

 

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

- World of Warcraft

 

Do you have an eReader and if so which one?

- kobo touch

 

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

- I love Scentsy. favourite scents, hmmm, buttermint (if there was a nag champa scent I'd love that), i like the autumny/wintery scents

Marzipan? it's not bad

 

Would you be interested in washable/reusable muslin “paper” towels (basically muslin squares hemmed around the edge)? Maybe in some sort of box to put on your kitchen or bathroom counter? Yes! i actually have had my eye on some on Etsy but they are about $45!

 

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). Yes please :) I am not sure about alcohol via mail.

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)? would LOVE & be so flattered to have something made for me. a wrap or fingerless gloves or socks would go to immediate & very good use!

 

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? lol nope, baby too young to care & hubby just doesn't care ;)

I have 5 bushels of tomatoes sitting in the kitchen right now that are supposed to turn into red sauce tomorrow, so would anyone like a basic red sauce (spaghetti sauce) to make its way to them? no disrespect, I would LOVE this, but I ONLY eat organic tomatoes (GMO/Monsanto & all that jazz)
