Stuff like postcards, notecards, jewelry, office supplies, what-have-you? I love the Victorian Era and the Renaissance. If you like manga, comics, and/or graphic novels, what is it about them that you like, in general? The story, the art/style, etc? The story and the art are equally important. I loved Amano/Gaiman's The Dream Eaters. It was a perfect mash-up of art and story. I feel the same way about The Book of Ballads, illustrated by Charles Vess, and the illustrated version of Stardust.

Peanut kisses, mini Hershey bars, candy corn/pumpkins. And another question; anyone like anything in particular from Think Geek? Caffeinated items, those butterfies in jars, the sun and moon jars and, this is weird but, the blood type test kit. I never got to do one of those in school and I think they're neat. Oh, and the Swedish firesteel! Pinterest, do you have boards you want to share or are you following anyone with great boards you want to share? I had one but it doesn't allow even tasteful nudity, so I ditched it. It offended my artistic sensibilities or something. Would you like to receive e-books? And if so, in what format? No e-reader. I would be happy with .pdfs from places like Smashwords or other Indie e-book sites. How did you dress up for your last party or compulsory-formal-dress occasion? I wore a tailored suit and skirt.

Favorite style (twist up tube, pot, tube with wand, etc.)? Favorite flavors? Flavors to avoid? Favorite brand? Do you need more right now or are you set? Are you one of those people who could never have enough lip balm even though you have a bowl on your dresser overflowing with them and 10 in your purse and an order for more on the way? I always need more because I loose them. I like the Badger brand stuff and the Luch balms. I like honey, vanilla, chai, and strawberry. The only flavour I don't like is chocolate. If you were turned loose in a basic drug store (CVS, Walgreens - a pharmacy with attached mini-mart, basically!) with a $20 bill, what would you pick up? I have recently become obsessed with the crackle overcoat nail polish, so I'd grab some of that in silver. Then I'd probably spend the rest on necessities.

I do need some brushes for shadow pretty badly. :} Do you like Legos? Especially mini-fig key chains, Lego block keychains, small Lego sets, etc? I like the medieval and anubis lego keychains. I make them into necklaces. Since the previous question about "what would you buy from the Lab if you had unlimited funds, etc" left WAY too much to the imagination with no limitations (my answer was pretty much BUY ALL THE THINGS!), what would you do if you found a $50 bill on the ground and a nagging voice in the back of your mind told you that you HAD to spend it on BPAL or else face Death. Also, say they had free shipping (LOL) so don't factor that in. What would you get? And spend it all! Or as close to $50 as you can get. the Lab: Umm... A weenie or Salon and one Chesire Cat. A question! If you are crafty, what's your personal art style? I'm not talking just about what art you like to look at, but what kind of art do you like creating? Do you have a "process" while you're creating beauty? Draw something, ink it, hate it. Draw something else, toss color on it, hate it. Draw something, leave it as a sketch so it can never be ruined. <-- Process is very hectic and hateful, but sometimes I get something I like. I tend towards an illustrative style and use ink, pen, watercolor pencils, watercolor and pastels. I like folklore figures, nature and character art. Are there any Arcana Weenies that you MUST HAVE? I like Arcana but never look at their page because I need less scent obsessions. >_< So what say you? IS an "unexpected" visit/in-person witching OK? I'd love to meet someone for coffee but my highly medicated, anxiety ridden self is probably not up for surprise people. If you could choose a Smack, what would it have in it? I love this idea! Just haven't tried it yet. Sugared Roses/Spice Trade/Vanilla Bean Or Bonfire/Suede/Unearthed Or Espresso/Chocolate Mousse/Mint Medley Or Fresh Squeezed Citrus/Bluegrass Or Redwoods/ Spice Trade /Coconut Milk

Maple syrup goes on everything at breakfast. Eggs, bacon, pancakes, etc. It's one of my favorite flavours.

(Like these: http://www.art-shrin...cketshrines.htm) I like them and have made a few myself. Do you like beef jerkey, I know some may be vegatarian, but where I live beef is a staple and beef jerkey abounds. If so do you it really thin, hard and crunchy or thicker and softer. (OK that borders on obscene)- I like all sorts of jerky. It's a great snack for hiking. Also do you like or racier ecards from time to time and do you need to be warned if something may be not safe to open at work. Sure, but a warning would be nice! o_O Doctor Who? Yay or nay?

No. Who here adores meringue? It's decent, and the husbeast loves it.

Dressing up and having dinner nearby. One day I would love to spend New Year's eve in Chicago with all of these trimmings. What do you really NOT want?

Here is some early morning ketchup. It goes on eggs. Do you collect stones/rocks? I'm talking like "semi" precious stones, ie moonstone, bloodstone, quartz ect. Are there any that you're looking for at the moment? Are you in need of a stone but don't know which kind? I love garnet, turquoise, tigerseye and amethysts and am always looking for nice pieces to wire wrap. What's your favorite Halloween Music? I really like ballads around this time of year, and creepier folk tunes. Pete Seger - Pretty Polly, Medieval Babes - Tam Lin, are good examples. I also like listening to scary stories on tape if the person reading is good at what they do. Do you have a deviantart print wishlist or favourites list? Sadly, no. I will someday! Is there anything from Blooddrop that you want to try? GC? Halloween update? Not familiar but willing to try anything! Do you like weird scary things as traditionally girly fashion items like heels and handbags? Purses and those shoes lined a few pages back are neat. What song is on heavy rotation for you right now? Heather Alexander - Bedlam Boys. If you could get any one thing hand-painted from your witch, what would it be and what would be on it? Something autumn themed, cats, wolves, dogs, satyrs. Not all combined, of course, though now I can see it in my head... o_O If you have played before, what are some of the most memorable things you've gotten? What really made you go WOW? If you haven't played, same thing, but not limited to SW. Last round I was in: Caramel Bess from John and Kira's (OMG! Sooooooo good!) and lovely books from Wwindy. I also love the mug juniperusintrepidus made me waaaay back when I started. And I've misplaced the dear witch's name, like that horribly disorganized person I am, but this was one of my favorite packages, ever. I really adore handmade things, and she made both the scarf and the dread falls. She also enabled me to Teapigs, which has some really decent tea and reasonable S&H to the U.S. Can I talk to you about the living dead? How do you feel about Zombies? I like dressing up as a zombie, I like zombie comedies (shaun of the dead, zombieland), but I don't like actual zombie movies very much. What kind of shoes do you need/want? What size shoes do you wear? Would you mind gently used shoes? I'm full up on shoes, unless they're boots. Everyone needs more boots! I wear 8.5. Do you like paper dolls (new or vintage) or coloring in books? I really like Dover coloring books and even some of the more simplistic books. Not much for paper dolls, however.

How do you feel about recipes? I like them as a general frame of reference. What kind of a cook/baker are you? Equally good at both. My failing is lack of measuring things and being too 'creative' sometimes. Are you happiest calling for delivery or microwaving a lean cuisine, or will Food Network be asking you to host their new program? A little of all of the above. I have a cooking love/hate relationship. I mean, I can make souffle that doesn't fall but... I don't wanna! If I send you something home made would you like the recipe for it? Yes, please. If you are someone who doesn't want baked goods sent, would you like a collection of some of my favorite recipes? Can I have those anyway? +d

OK, I know that lots of folks love socks. Do you have a preference of length? Materials? Patterns? ...every sock, ever. Just as long as they're not boring white! I tend to go for knee-thigh high as I wear a lot of skirts. Also, <3 tights, leggings and everything layerable. I like loose wool socks (for layering) but otherwise prefer cotton. Dream Costume. Too many to list. O_O I really want to dress up as Lolth from D&D some year, because I'm that much of a geek. I still don't know what I want to be this year. How do you feel about recipes? If I send you something home made would you like the recipe for it? How about home made mixes or kits? I love the idea of all of these! I've always wanted to try one of those jar recipe kits. (Either to make one or to... make one. ) Would you enjoy homemade bath products (bath salts, fizzies, etc.) and/or linen sprays? Esp. if scented with some of your favorite BPAL scents? Sure! For holidays, do you decorate? Would you like decorative stuff, weenie or otherwise? If so, do you lean towards the elegant, the crafty/folksy, or the more, erm, campy? I don't really decorate beyond putting something like a wreath or cut-out on the door. For Halloween I like bat cut-outs. What interests you from the latest lab update? Pretty much everything. ;_;

Find your iPod (or other MP3 device), put it on shuffle/random. What are the first five songs to come up? You can have ten, because my main playlist is loooong. 1. Mika - Lollipop 2. Faith and the Muse - Elyria 3. Within Temptation - Jillian 4. Heather Alexander- Bedlam Boys (LOVE this ballad!!!) 5. Inkubus Sukubus - Belladonna and Aconite 6. October Project - Bury My Lovely 7. Yoko Kanno - Yakitori 8. Repo: The Genetic Opera - Chase the Morning. 9. Kypteria- The Promise 10. Blackmore's Night - Castles and Dreams Chocolate or other types of candy? Chocolate or salted caramel. For tea drinkers, do you prefer loose leaf or tea bags? Either is fine. Is there anything you need for your kitchen, ie measuring cups, spoons, grater, ect? I like to collect cookie cutters and shaped pans, like Vikingware cake pans. Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? Studio, unedited. Live is o.k. for folk and ren faire style stuff. If you are an animal lover, is there a specific type/breed that you love most? I really like sight hounds: greyhounds, elk hounds, pharaoh hounds, Irish wolfhounds, you get the idea.

Conglomerated for your convenience. =D How do you feel about silly, funny knick-knack, dollar store stuff, stickers, magnets etc? Would you like receiving that kind of stuff or rather not? Maybe one magnet or stickers. I already have plenty of clutter, otherwise. =D Is there a specific book you've been wanting to get but haven't found the time or the opportunity to? Heh, check Amazon. Do you read mangas/watch animes? Which ones? Do you have a particular favorite? Would you like to receive mangas or anything related to them? My favorites are Ergo Proxy and Slayers. I'd love Slayers light novels or the Ergo Proxy DVDs. I haven't read or watched anything incredibly new for a while. Are you open to receiving things that are not on your wishlist, maybe something your Witch thinks you might like? Of course! Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? I like sketchbooks, especially moleskins and watercolor paper. How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? I think I have too much as is with hardly anything to use it for. :{ Always need new micron pens in any size and color, though! Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Sure! Would you like something you have to make yourself? Depends on how hard it is. ; Say you were my witchee, and I found things on your wishlist that I could totally make. Would you want me to make it? Or would you rather it be purchased for you? I rather have you make it! It's a lot more meaningful that you would want to. } Partial bottles? Yes. Who is your favorite soap etailer? Villaness, Lush What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? Urban Decay and Bare Essentials minerals. I like colorful eye shadows and nail polish; green, metallic, neon, etc. Lip Gloss Colors: Mulberry, Coffee, shell pink, neutral. What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? Teacups and glasses would be nice. With regards to your gifts, would you prefer your presents' awesomeness evenly spread out (several packages of pretty terrific things) over the round or a slow build-up of awesomeness (going up from pretty cool things to something super-duper cool at the end) to go out with a bang? Do you have a preference? I like things spread out but don't mind waiting until the end. Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I like occasional e-cards but I don't require them~! If you witch made you something and it didn't come out just right, would you still want it? Of course! If you could see one concert right now, who would it be? Lacuna Coil Do you like maple sugar candy? Very much. Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? Somewhere... lost in LJ. What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? Eeeeeh... >_< Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Pepper blend, tarragon and garlic. Microsoft or Apple? Microsoft. Where was your last vacation? What did you like most? Florida. Being on a quite island full of wildlife. Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? Yes and yes. Would you like a tea cozy? I... I'd need a better teapot to go with it. Otherwise, I'd love one! Vampires/Vampire literature: I like short story collections, mostly. Never got into any major vampire series. Consoles: PC all the way. Sometimes I play with my DS Lite. I prefer tabletop RPGs and boardgames, though. Plants and flowers: Hmmm, not sure? I like flowers and plants, but my plants have to live outdoors. How do you feel about marzipan?: I like it quite a bit and my husband -loves- it. If you could have 3 BPAL bottles fall (gently) out of the sky right this second that you've been looking for or pining for - which 3 would they be?: Succubus, Pinched with Four Aces and Perversion. Are there any international treats that you love and have a hard time finding? Walkers Crips, Kinder Surprise and Malteasers.

I get cardamom, musk and caramel. There's a bit of chocolatey vanilla when I'm not directly sniffing my wrists. All together this is really yummy. Mmmmm.

I have to agree, Skuld in the bottle is really kinda gross. I got a frimp two days ago and set it aside after sniffing. Bleh. But then I looked at reviews and decided to give it a chance! It's really rather nice on me. It turns into a powdery, light musk and floral blend. I don't get much of a honey note, but everything else is nice!

Very green and floral with alot of sweetness. The strongest note for me is the osmanthus, with the honey and sugar making it overly sweet. In the bottle it smells really nice but the second it's on my skin is smells like stereotypical "girl" perfume. I think this is a very pretty scent but it just doesn't work well on me. For the record this is the first asian-themed scent that hasn't worked for me.

In the bottle this smelled musky, but on my skin it's incredibly sweet, piney and fresh. A very cool, fresh scent!

The mint is nice, but I now know that juniper is not for me. It's overpowering and really gross on my skin. It smelled so good in the bottle though.

Wow, this is sooo good. Icy floral with undertones of vertiver. It also has a very powerful throw on me! Mmmm, looks like I'll have to order more!

Definately refreshing! The lime and musk are the strong notes in this blend, with the seaspray and verbena in the background. This is a very masculine fresh, reminding me of deodorant body sprays without that nasty fake scent. This lasts for hours and hours and is wonderful on my husband. I'd recommened this for any guy! I'll be looking for an extra bottle for sure.

Wow, so much like black licorice in the imp and on my skin. The candy mellows out to musk in the end. Very light throw, noticeable but not overwhelming. A nice scent, but my hubby hates licorice. However, I know someone this will be perfect for! Yay enabling!

Wow, yummy. In the imp Cockaigne is sweet, vanilla and cakey. On my skin the initial throw is simply amazing; I smell just like fresh cake! I get more of a milky note as it dries down but, sadly, I never encounter any wine. It's still a very tasty scent, and of all the foody cake scents I've tried this one stays the longest. Definately going on my list!

In the bottle Tavern of Hell is very woody and sweet. It's much different than anything I've tested so far. The florals become sweeter and more complex as the oil dries down, and the whiskey comes out in the background. In the final stages nothing is left but a sweet, floral and fresh scent. I'm with The_Witching_Hour, this is really great, and I need more.

Cinnamon and cloves all the way for me. In the imp, wet and dry. This will make a nice scent for my oil burner but it's not great on me.

Nothing truly astounding. This blend is sweet, gingery an heavy initially then dies down into a dark cherry scent.
