Do you have a preference for a poem or romance novel and what type of Romance novel? ***

Probably erotica of the NSFW kind. Poetry or paranormal type stuff is ok too.

How do you feel about burned mix cds (good time for mood music *giggle*)?

Fascinated. I love new experiences, and am intrigued by new music.

Do you have metal/ jewelry allergies?

Nope.

 

Do you bake/would you be interested in baked goods or related mixes?

Definitely. Just make sure that any mixes are less-than-complicated, for my family's safety. :lol:

 

Do you like cute stationery, stickers, note cards, stuff like that?

Yes, very much so.

 

Do you like tea? If so, do you prefer your tea loose or in tea bags?

Tea is wonderful. Jasmine, flavored black teas, green teas. Tea bags are my favorite, but I do have a couple of diffuser balls I use occasionally. Caveat: if it is herbal, and naturally caffeine-free, that's ok. A perfectly good tea that has been artificially decaffeinated is an abomination!

What is your favorite Valentine candy?

Anything geeky or caffeinated. Like a gummy anatomical heart, or chocolate-covered espresso beans.

 

1-21

 

How would you feel about receiving a knitted / crocheted gift? What kinds of yarny things would you enjoy (scarf, hat, mitts, cowl, socks, etc)? What are your favorite colors for wearable accessories? That sounds awesome - but no worries if not. I'm not the crafty type, so I hope my partner/victim isn't disappointed at the lack of hand-crafted items in their package. That's what retail is for, yep.

 

1-22

 

Would you enjoy some loose beads for your own crafts, or any other crafty bits? Amigurumi books, maybe? Trying to learn to crochet, and I enjoy cross-stitch. At your discretion! Anything sent is loved.

 

Would you rather get things all together or in a couple of doses? I love small packages, but for this swap probably one big box would be most cost-effective. Again, all at your discretion. :D

 

Kid/Parent/church lady safe or not? Meh. Valentine's day/Lupercalia probably shouldn't be...

 

Length of necklace, size of bracelet, post or dangle earrings preferred? Choker-style necklace, or long & dangly. Either style of earrings, I wear them both. Nothing horribly heavy, though.

 

Stuffed critters or other things of the cuddly variety? Fun! I have some of that kind of thing on my etsy favorites, just as a guide to what has caught my eye in the past.

 

1-23

 

Would you mind receiving an in person delivery from your Cupid? Not at all, but somehow I doubt that geographically that would work out.

 

For those who don't do jewelry/have a prohibitive amount of metal sensitivities, etc., would you prefer something like a keychain charm or other little ornamental thing? Sure!

 

1-25

For you chocolate lovers - do you like yours plain or with nuts? If nuts are good, which kind? Pecans, mmmm. Plain or with nuts are both good. And disappear quickly around this house.

 

Do you like hot cocoa? Sure.

 

Does anyone have any strong objection to gently used items? No used clothing or shoes, please. Used books are wonderful.

Just for fun, the original questionnaire answers:

 

Allergies: None

 

Anything you specifically don't want (do you not like fur or have too much

soap already etc.): Don't like onions? Can't think of anything specific other than that!

 

Fave colors: Sapphire Blue, Forest Green, Blood Red - dark, intense, vibrant colors

 

Fave Scent notes: Cinnamon, coffee - Scent Notes

 

fave flavors - cinnamon, dark chocolate, pumpkin, pineapple... Open to trying new things too. But no onions.

 

Do you prefer "traditional" or anatomical hearts? Anatomical, by preference :twisted: But a cute traditional heart is always fun.

 

Fave flower: Daffodils

 

Favorite candy/chocolate/dessert: Cheesecake, tiramisu

 

Fave Author/Poet: It's hard to narrow it down. Perhaps Sheri Tepper for author, Omar Khayyam for poet? And Lewis Carroll for both.

 

What kind of poems do you like? Imaginative ones.

 

Sock size: Women's 9-11

 

Shirt Size: XL

 

Would you like makeup/lip balm/nail polish? Sure! Mineral makeup, flavored lip balms, dark and/or glow in the dark nail polish are all good.

 

Would you like bath/body stuff? Yep.

 

Would you like hair accesories/clips? Sure

 

Would you like candles,incense, or wax tarts? Wax tarts or candles are used more than incense around here.

 

Would you be offended by things of a risqué/adult nature (nipple pasties, genital shaped soap or chocolate, etc.)? :eek: Oh, my innocent eyes and ears! :thud: On that note, the other day in the BDSM thread I saw this fascinating idea... :blush: No, it's pretty hard to offend me. :lol:

 

Anything else you want your swapper to know: Please, please - answer questions! I have done a few swaps so far, and the thing that makes the most difference to me is having more information! It's so frustrating when I have to try and read minds, because I suck at it. Post wishlists - answers- ask for the Taj Mahal! I may not be able to pull it off, but at least I'll know what you like! :D

 

Wishlist links: I have a ton of wishlist links in my profile/about me page. I love to window shop, and it's been a good place to keep them all together.
