Tell me of your taste preferences. Dry/sweet? Red/white? Lager/ale/porter/stout? Fruit? Spice? Hops? Sour (brettanomyces, etc)?

sweet or semi-sweet. Red or white – reds, I prefer lambruscos and and some merlots. I’ve never tried port or syrah, but they seem to be something I’d like. Whites, I adore Rieslings and Gewurtztraminers. I don’t usually do beer, other than lambic – specifically cherry or peach lambic. Fruit – I prefer cherry, blackberry, peach, and pear flavors in most anything alcoholic. Spices – I really like grains of paradise, galangal, cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, and clove. White pepper works too. I generally dislike anything hoppy – again, the bitterness – and I don’t like sour anything usually, food OR drink.

What are some things you are OK with receiving gently used or homemade, and some things you absolutely do not want if they are gently used or homemade?

As long as it’s in decent shape and doesn’t smell funky, I’m good with it.

Are you a Disney fan or does even thinking about Disney make your head hurt? If you're into Disney, would you like something from the Happiest Place on Earth?

If it involves Pirates or any of the Villainesses, I’m all for it. I love Ursula and Maleficent the most. Same goes for just about anything Haunted Mansion. Princess-wise, I’m loving Merida (from Brave). The munchkin loves all of the Princesses, though.

What's one random thing you really like and one random thing you really dislike?

dislike – romantic comedies, with the exception of zombie romantic comedies.

Like – suuuuuuper soft fabrics. I’m a sucker for stuff like tissue tees, vellux blankets, Lion Brand Homespun yarn, tissue weight linen….

dear witchee, would you, could you use an electric candle warmer?

Ooh, that’d be nice.

Witchee, will you be gone from your normal mailing address at any point during the round?

not this time around, I don’t think.

Do you lust after some new socks/tights?

Definitely. I’m wanting some of the knit ones-like argyle tights. Unfortunately, I need size FAT. Erm… some odd version of queen size, that is. I’m 280 and 6 foot tall. Also, I’m dying for some hand knitted socks. *nod* or halloweenie socks, but with no puffballs or anything on the ankle – I wear mostly boots this time of year.
