Do you like coin purses?

Not really... I have quite a few little pouches, I don't really need another to add to the pile.

 

If your fox were to knit something for you, would it be a lacy shawl or a pair of socks?

Socks! I've never had a pair of knitted socks and would love them! I don't wear shawls.

 

Are there any Yules from *PAST* years that you're interested in trying? Including past winter inquisitions?

Not that I can think of.

 

Are you a Harry Potter fan? If so, which house do you identify with, and why? Would you want knitted things/replicas/accessories in your house colours?

I read books 1-3... It took me a few tries to get through book one. I should probably finish the series but it just doesn't hold my interest.

 

Sooo. Yules. Those just happened. What are you interested in, Bunny?

I kinda want to try DIABLE EN BOÎTE 2011.

I definitely would like:

MAISON EN PAIN D'ÉPICES

*MIDWINTER’S EVE 2011*

PINK SNOWBALLS 2011

WOODS IN WINTER 2011

A WONDEFUL LIGHT

 

I don't know if I'm going to put in an order or not though, I might wait for reviews.

 

Do you prefer dark or milk chocolate?

Dark!

 

Any crafty pursuits you've been dying to experiment with? Would you like a little kit of something you've never tried? Do you need any particular items for your new or existing stash?

No.

 

Bunny, could you use a 2012 calendar, and, if so, do you like big monthly ones or the page-a-day type?

I'm so embarassing. I need one of these. I'd totally hang it on the fridge despite my husband's protests. LOL

 

What are your opinions on traditional holiday cookie flavorings? I'm thinking anise and cardamom in particular. Why yes, I do have a certain recipe in mind.

Hmm. Traditional for me is sugar cookies or gingerbread... I'm open to trying anise or cardamom!

 

A question: reveal, yes or no?

Maybe!

 

Any favorite cuddly characters?

No.

Charity gifts? Either fair-trade type stuff, or virtual type gifts, like vaccinations or school supplies being bought on your behalf, or something along those lines?

I'm pretty picky about this, so please don't.

 

Bunny, are you interested in tarts from Two Timing Tart? What scents, if any, are you interested in?

Satin Sheets, Sex Kitten, Pornography, Wench, Insomniac, Hedonistic Self-Indulgence.

 

Do you need any holiday recipes? Is there something in particular that you'd like baked or made for you? And for those of you doing the no sugar/low sugar, etc. thing these days, how about savory things?

No.

 

Does anyone have issues with gently used things like books, etc.?

Absolutely not! I LOVE used books!

 

Bunnies, how do you feel about lemon-flavored items, like lemon marmalade, lemon curd, lemon pound cake, or lemon cookies?

I love lemon poppy seed baked goods!

 

fingerless mittens or full mitts?

Both!

 

I'm not big on pink.

 

artisan oils and vinegars:

oils.

 

Coffee or tea? With caffine or without? Flavors (if so, what?) or no? Whole bean/ground/loose leaf/bags?

I have a Kuerig... I don't have a coffee grinder and I loved flavored coffee! Loose or bags are fine for tea! I like Green Teas and Black teas, as well as Herbal, but NO ROOBIOS!

 

Do you have a strong preference for any sort of bath and body product brands (i.e. etailer/etsy type cos, department store/specialty brands like Lush) or are you cool with anything that doesn't smell like Bunnybane?

No silicones, no parabens!

 

Moxie Noveau:

I am probably putting in for an order of Day of Souls (because it's delicious!) and testers of Dear Santa, Sinter Klaas, and Twelfth Night.

 

Favorites

color- grays, black, brown, burgundy, dark green

gemstone- garnet

animal- wolves, foxes, hedgehogs, wombats, deer... I could go on and on..

phobias- vomit

 

Nano-ing:

No.

 

facebook/twitter:

I think these are in my signature? If not they are in my SW blogs somewhere.

If your fox/bunny were to gift you with a giftcard from anywhere, as in any store food wise, music wise etc. what giftcard would you like?

Barnes and Noble, Villainess, Sockdreams

 

If I were to send you chocolate is there anything I should avoid as in nuts, cherries etc.? Also, what are some of your favorite holiday candies?

I don't have any favorite candies, but I like Ghiradelli chocolate and Lindt!

 

Does anything from FusionSweets interest you?

I'm just going to ignore this...

Interested in anything from the Elements and Artifacts Yule update?

I don't know what this is.

 

I live in the city of the chicken wing. If I were to send you something savory, what's your heat tolerance (or sweet and heat for that matter)?

Medium, no sweet.

 

How about mulling spices?

I don't know what I'd do with them...

 

If I were to place ONE LAST Weenie order, (uh, which I will) what would you want me to include for you? (presuming that is that the order can get here in time, bites nails)?

Nothing! Unless you want to include a GC? Blood Countess.

 

Will you be away for any part of the round?

Nope.

 

Anyone else with an Etsy store and a member of Tradeaholics (or you could join) and interested in bartering for gifts for their bunny?

No.

 

What type of books do you like? Dying to read anything?

This is in my SW Questionnaire, but now I'm kinda dying to read the Dexter series!

Christmas music?

Yes!

Rose/mastic flavored things?

Yucky.

How do you feel about honey/beeswax? Would you like any?

I'm good there!

 

Are you a Trader Joe's fan, who either doesn't have a store nearby or just loves their stuff and has a wishlist?

I love Trader Joe's! I don't have a wishlist but I love their trail mixes and peanut butter filled pretzels!

 

Do you have kids (or kid-like pets) who your fox may want to take into account, either in terms of a little extra goody or simple safety?

No glitter, no confetti. I have a dog that likes to eat whatever doesn't "blend" into the floor. And please don't include anything for either pet, the one that eats whatever doesn't blend into the floor has a super strict diet.

 

Would you like a Paintbox from Paintbox Soapworks? If so, which scents?

Lavender Truffle

The Queen is Dead

The Man in the Moon

Gingermilk

Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh

 

Do you do a Christmas tree? If yes is it themed or specially colored or do you just have all different ornaments and such?

Yes. We have Star Wars, Star Trek, Superhero, Hello Kitty and My Little Pony ornaments. We don't do anything with glass.

 

Would you like a special ornament?

Sure.

 

Now, a question of my own: I know some people are squicked out at the idea of eating things that other people make, or the thought of deep fried cookies sends them into cardiac arrest. If you were my fox, would you like to receive some homemade goodies, or would you prefer that your goodies came from the store?

Ewww, NO DEEP FRIED COOKIES.

 

Could you use a new mug?

I have a Christmas mug but I could use a Halloween mug and now is the time for clearance!

 

So...someone has gifted you a $20 gift card from walgreens to ONLY use on things for yourself. no necessities here. what do you buy?

Some Ghiradelli... And maybe some nail polish.

 

I live near a brick and morter location for a really, really good spice store. would you use cooking spices and if you would, what would you need? (it's penzey's if you want to google it).

Oh there's a ton of stuff there! Anything for meat but nothing with curry!

 

Do you like knitted goods? If so, what would you like, what colors, and do you have any sensitivites or preference when it comes to type of yarn (ex: wool: yay or nay? do you prefer machine washable materials? do you not care?)?

I would be VERY happy with knitted goods. Machine washable, soft yarn. Nothing scratchy or felted!

Tim Tams. Yay or nay?

I don't know!

My lovely fluffy Snow Bunny, would you like a bodyscrub made by me? If so, what scent(s) would you like, if you had to think along the lines of essential oils? And would you prefer sugar or salt? A dryer scrub or one that's more oily/moist?

Sure, oily sugar, but unscented please!

Dear snow bunny, do you like candles? if yes, then what kind? scented (what scents), unscented, what colors, do you like them plain/painted on the outside/with decorations attached to the surface/sculpted?

I prefer tarts.

 

Also what do you think of little soaps? I know most people don't use soaps nowadays but I love the chocolate/vanilla/cocoa/butter/sugar combo scents that I see at beauty stores.

No thank you.

 

Socks! Slippers! Do you love them or not really wear them? If you love them, do you also love Sock Dreams?

Socks and slippers! Preferably slipper socks! =)

Now, my dear bunnies, a question for you!
