Dear Witch, I think I somehow missed transferring some of the thread questions to here, but I did answer them. I'm sure you probably don't really need to hear more from me, anyway, as I have a problem with wordiness. But let me know, and I will track the lost questions down.

 

Is there anything you would like from the Blooddrop Halloween update?

Sure! Apples & Bones, Dracula's Daughter Crypt, Kissa yojoki, Hare, Newt, Vixen, Chai Tea, Elderflower & Spiced Pear, maybe Library, maybe Long Black Veil, Parlor Tricks, Pomegranate & Darkened Honey, and Summer's Remains all sound very nice. Also, Balck Currant & Tea Leaves, but I have no bath.

 

Do you prefer to receive whole coffee beans or ground?

I don't really do coffee, but if it's something flavored or for cooking, sure; either kind is fine.

 

Are you interested in anything from the Haus of Gloi yule update on November 3rd? Which products and which scents?

Sure! Snow Wolf, Three Treasures, Rosy Cheeked, Waning Sun, and Brown Sugar & Pear lip balm? I like Christmas Tree smells.

 

If I made fairy, dragon or butterfly wing earrings, would you wear them? If so, which would you prefer?

I would probably be tempted to wear them, which would involve stabbing them through my unpierced lobes. That would not be good, and then it would be sad. I would probably end up modding them into hair ornaments, though. So it would work out!

 

How do you feel about nail polish? If you like it, are there any brands or colors in which you are interested?

I like nailpolish. Zoya and Sinful Colors are my go-to brands, I guess. I'd like another OPI 'Let's Do Lunch', or colors in that vein. It was subtle and made my skin look healthy, which is awesome.

 

What about makeup? What brands do you prefer and which products would you most enjoy receiving?

I like mineral loose pigment shadows, and Korean BB creams, and lip stain... I like makeup. I try to go with more natural things, but am easily lured into buying awesome, highly pigmented stuff. Some favorite brands are Skinfood, Fyrinnae, Tarte lip thingies, Josie Maran stain markers... I've recently tried out some Meow Cosmetics shadows (the LE Rainforest ones from the summer, because this Forum is full of evil[ly awesome] enablers), and would be interested in more of those. I also love makeup brushes, Eco Tools and the black one from ELF are great. I like makeup, and would probably love to try most things I haven't yet-- cruelty-free and more natural are the best. I'm on a quest for a good concealer. I spent Birchbox points to get one from Juice Beauty, so we shall see. You can see the veins next to my eyes. I'm scary looking. Plus side, don't actually need a Halloween costume, because I already resemble the undead.

 

Your feelings on Adagio teas: If you've never had anything from them, would you be open to trying them? If you HAVE had them and like them, name some favorites blends.

I like teas, and would love things like Falling Leaves or Autumn Garden Spice.

 

Do you like video games? Are there any you want to play? Do you have a large library?

Yes; many. I have a small library. My thread answer was a lot more wordy, but it basically boils down to laziness on my part. But if you wanted to send me games, I would play them, and enjoy it.

 

Name three BPAL scents you have tried, but are dying to get more of.

I really am happy with the ones I have, but who says 'no' to BPAL? As far as currently available GCs, maybe I would like Chuparosa, Strangler Fig, and Baobhan Sith? Oo, or voodoo Lily-- but I hoard imps of stuff so I really should be okay.

 

Have you ever tried anything from Paintbox Soapworks? Which products or scents would you prefer?

Big in Japan is one of my favorite product scents right now. I love her scrubs. They are unbelievably fabulous.

 

Do you like/have space to garden? If so, what do you grow?

I grow plants; whatever I can. I'm coming to the conclusion that plants like okra don't want to grow here, because it is very dry. Herbs tend to be awesome out here, and flowers... it's weird. We have an orchard. I also tend to let the nightshade grow(it's only white nightshade, I would not risk belladonna around my furbabies[which is sad,I want one of those victorian horror/ Rappaccini's Garden type greenhouses of doom, which is so not going to happen, like, ever] ditto for growing foxglove or hellebores, despite how gorgeous they are. I did let some datura grow this year, and somehow got the one plant that smelled of skank, instead of the gorgeous floral growing in the desert-- don't know what happened there. But, oh well).

I love plants, and plant things are always appreciated.

 

Gift cards/vouchers - yay or nay? If you like them - which stores would you like one for?

Sure! Etsy, Amazon, B&N, Botanical Interests, Baker Creek, whatever; lots of places who do gift cards are awesome.

 

Seen anything lately that makes you go OH HOLY FUCK THAT'S AWESOME!! ?

This and slightly less recently, this. I don't know, it probably isn't HOLYFCUK caliber, but I laughed.

 

Name five small things you could use, but might not think to get for yourself?

Nailfile, (I am stealing this from whomever genius post this in thread) underpants, sturdy comb, mp3s, lotto tickets(preferably winning ones ). I don't know. What did I write in the thread?

 

Is there anything from a farmer's market you might like?

Yes, but much of it is not mailable. Honey, spices, salts, vinegars and jam-type things are always good.

 

Do you have any upcoming away time I should be aware of, for shipping purposes?

Nope. I don't really go anywhere, ever.

 

Would you like anything from Sock Dreams?

Sure! Here is a wishlist, onto which I have put just about every OTK, thigh high, and tight that looked interesting, in all the color variations that I might possible want (hardcore!). On the other hand, I do have a bunch of socks, so there is no need to go out of your way to snag sockdreams, unless it was part of your mighty plan.

 

Is there anything in the Miskatonic Valley Philharmonic update that you're interested in?

I might like testers of a few, but most have patchouli, so I'm kind of iffy on them. Czarda Macabre looks like the most likely to work of all, I guess. I love the inspiration, though.

 

Is there anything my mom's etsy shop that you're interested in?

Oh my goodness, so cute hats! Also, love the name. I have officially put one of those bunny totes on my to buy list for my best friend. For me, I don't see anything specific that jumps out, but I'm sure that I would love something if I received it.

 

Is there anything you'd like from Lush, witchee?

Aww, I had not even thought about the Holidays LEs. So, aside from my usual standbys of Sandstone, Aqua Mirabilis, and all the moisturizing massagy bars, I might love to try: Buche de Noel, Noriko soap(darn that SLS, though), Celebrate body lotion, Sikkim Girls body lotion, Santa Baby lip balm, Sandy Santa bar, and might even risk the SLS to try Sugar Plum Fairy scrub or Mr. Punch soap. Also, I have no bath, but Pumkin is adorable.

 

If you like earrings, what kind? Dangly earrings, hoops, studs - what kind do you like? How long do you like your necklaces? Or would you prefer to just get a pendent, so you can size the chain yourself?

I don't have pierced ears. If you really want to get me earrings, every once in a blue moon, I will wear a pair of vintage/antique dangly screwback earrings-- the dangly kind that are kind of delicate(to offset my kind of manly jaw). Necklaces are awesome, any length, as are pendants.

 

If I were your witch and were to paint you something, what would you absolutely love, what would you feel ambivalent toward, and what would you not like to see or receive?

I would love any art you were inclined to create for me. I especially like nature and fantasy things. You can check out my Deviantart on the Switch o'Ween people list, if you need inspiration.

 

Are you okay with semi-spicy foods right now? I'm thinking like curry or chipotle? If you were to choose a chili powder would you go Hot, Medium, or Mild?

I'm okay with semi-spicy foods all the time. I think maybe I am missing the gist of the question. I prefer curry spice to chipotle-type spice(because you can taste the fruitiness of the pepper, but then, it's savory, and that just weirds my tastebuds out sometimes). When ordering spicy food at restaurants, I usually get medium. Historically, though, when getting food made by my Korean and Indian friends cooking regional, I kind of had to request if they could make it like they would if I were a tiny baby. Some peopel have a rather amazing spice tolerance that my tongue does not handle well.

 

If you were this mystery witch's witchee, would you be interested in Spoonfudge (http://www.spoonfudge.com/) or any other such "ordered online" sweet?

Sure? Sweets are good. I like sweets. Can't think of anything specific right now, but, yeah.

 

Also - Double checking everyone's baked goods status. Home-made baked goods or other food stuffs OK?

So long as it isn't going to come three months later and be all furry and alive , I am totally good with homemade food stuffs.

 

Are there any craft project/s you are working on now that you need supplies for? Or rather, is there a craft project you've been wanting to do but need stuff to start?

Umm, I don't think so? But craft supplies are always welcome, regardless.

 

What do you think of hair sticks? Would you like a set?

I like hairsticks. Sure, I would like a set.

 

Is there anything you'd really like to have/try from Trader Joe's, or any other popular-but-not-available-everywhere store?

We have a Trader Joe's half an hour away, so I am probably set in that regard. If you've got a store that has awesome things not widely available, sure, I'd love to try them.

 

Would you rather have something fun or practical?

Either one is fine. Whatever works for you.

 

Witchee, would you like a set of Cards Against Humanity?

Sure?

 

Table Games - do you play them? If so, which ones, and which versions, and are there any goodies you might like related to them?

I might, but I would be playing by myself... I'm always interest in things with pretty pictures or interesting information, though. Games books can be fun to read.

 

Witchee, are you in need of any particular spices?

One can never have too many spices, right?

 

If you were my witchee, would you be interested in anything from my store or something similar? (Nut-made by LisaNut on etsy.)

Sure! I'd love anything from anyone's store or handmade goods in general. handmade.

 

Say your witch works at a used bookstore. what kinds of things might you like from there? cool old pulp fiction paperbacks? tarot cards? (we have those.) a dr who pen? books about haunted cemeteries in seattle? you may have all of these things:) oh, and also movies. and cds.

Everything? Tarot cards would be awesome, and spooky books(okay, any books->book >ME< hoarder<-),CDS, Movies, if you want to send it, I will love it.

 

Witchee, the Haunt Halloween update goes live tomorrow! When it does, please post right away and let me know your dreams and wishes!

I will do this. It's five hours away now...

 

I've got some canned goods put up -- mostly jams/jellies, some apple butter, some applesauce. Want some? If so, what kind(s)?

Yes. If you have sweet and/or sour, fruity things, I will eat them.

 

How feel you about lip balms, glosses, and lipsticks? Any particular favourite scents/flavours? Any favourite makers/sellers?

I feel that they ensure one less area of my body feels like it has been basking in a dehydrator-- which is a very good thing. I do tend to have a bunch on hand at all times, though. But I'm not going to say 'no' to more. Petro-product free is a general preference; EOS and Body Shop are two favorites, and I would love to try all kinds of ones that are by small companies on Etsy(if they have a tint, mega bonus).

 

Since wishlist links never seem to work in forum mail, won't you please re-post your wishlist links here, so they're readable? (these are a little bit disorganized, but are still an accurate indicator of my tastes)

Etsy

 

Amazon

 

BPTP

 

BPAL

 

Pinterest (I am not very good at this, and it's a little vague and chaotic)

 

10/18/13:

Are you a fan of anything that you would like a tshirt of? If so, what size would you wear?

Sure! I would most likely wear a ladies' large, but I would have no issue modifying any size that you wanted to send.

 

Do you love, hate, or are indifferent to.....pumpkin flavored things?

I think I like it, but I think it does not like me. Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks, and actual pumpkin pieces, like, as a tempura item seem to be totally safe. That Pumpkin Spice Brulee Oolong from Teavana that TwilightEyes mentioned sounds pretty fabulous, also.

 

Dear future Witchee, did you get anything from the Beaver Moon or Weenie updates that I need to know about, so I don't accidentally repeat anything?

I did not get anything from either-- though I would still really like to pick up a couple of Weenies. I will let you know if I do. Also, please don't feel you need to get BPAL. BPAL is awesome, it's true, but it is also expensive. And, if you are going to buy BPAL, it would probably make me much happier if you bought some for yourself and loved it.

 

Name some DVDs you wouldnt mind receiving, or are they on an Amazon list?

There are a bunch on my Amazon wishlist. Speaking seasonally, Waxwork, the Raven(John Cusack;haven't ever seen it yet), and Rockula would probably top the list.

 

Do you want anything from Starbucks or Teavana? Tea, tea makers, rock sugar, tea tins, coffee, via, via refreshers, mugs, tazo tea...?

A lifetime supply of pumpkin Spice Lattes-- but then I would be impossible to live with. There is no solution. Even decaffeinated, there is a lot of sugar in them, and you *don't* want to see my impression of a human pingpong ball. I speak Valley Girl and I speak it quickly, LOL. I love tea, and I remember there being some nice ones from Teavana, but I have no idea what. If you want to send some teas, your judgement if far better than mine.

 

Halloween Candy, Decorations, and Costume supplies - What kind are your idea of FUN and which ones would you thoroughly dislike?

I like creepy, creepy-cute, elegant, spooooooky, glittery/sparkly, dark, orange and black, glow in the dark, bats and cats, and spiders and owls and naked trees... Oh! General leafy fall stuff is fabulous, too(Sorry, Halloween is very close and my mind is starting to go one-track spooky goodness).

I *don't* really like gore, stuff that is marketed as 'Halloween' but is really just some kind of commercialism and/or marketing, and mean things.

 

WHAT traditions to you partake in for Halloween? Knowing what you do our how you decorate or how you celebrate?

Decorate, dress up, hand out candy, watch a scary movie, light a candle at sunset and blow it out after midnight.

Also, a tradition that I do is freak out and get super paranoid of my cats for the whole fall(moreso than usual, and I am already a pretty big nutball where my furfamily is concerned). This is not a tradition I appreciate having to observe. But, yeah... Woo, candy and cute kids trick-or-treating!

 

Hey, Witchee, it's getting cold. Socks, scarves, hats or arm warmers?

If you want to send any, I will love them.
