Would you like anything from Future Primitive? (It's fine to mention OOS things) https://futureprimitivesoap.co.uk/ I'd really like to try their conditioning hair rinse, their bubbling scrub and their in the buff scrub. Scents that interest me are Dark Carnival, Sylph, The Gloaming, and Witch Cake. Does anyone have a favorite horror movie that they love? Need a copy/DVD of? Um......Oh! The Mummy (2019) Do you like smallish knitted stuff (hats, fingerless mittens, scarves, toys, etc. -- be specific!)? I'm a knitter myself, so I'm pretty good there, but having said that I love when other people knit for me!!! Do any of these knitted items appeal to you?

Yes please! I do a lot of shopping at thrift shops and consignment shops because with my health issues I find that I need to wear mostly natural fibers and they are way easier to find there than anywhere in retail stores, at least without spending a small fortune!!! 9/20/19 I may have bought several full size Rituel de Fille makeup items in a frenzy over their whole vibe. If I tested something once or twice (and it can be sanitized), would you be interested? Yes, especially any of their lip products!! Are you interested in trying different skincare products from higher end, clean brands? Sure! I'll try them! Any interest in anything from Torrid, noting their "fangirl" and Halloween collections are updated? I looked, but nothing jumped out at me. I do need to go in an check out their bras though?

(again, hahahaha) Is there anything you would particularly like from Japan?

None of those Kit Kats, but I'd love a Starbucks mug, or a cell phone charm or two, cute stationary, fun disposable fountain pens, pocky, yummy seaweed snacks 9/22/19 Thinking about really good natural food stores like Natural Grocers or Whole Foods, if you could have ANY bath and beauty or body care items, what would you love?

About the Weenies: please list what you've bought or are definitely purchasing for yourself *as well as* what you would like to possibly receive from someone else! None bought for me as none really tickle my fancy Dear Witchee, are you at all boozy? Anywhere between hard cider to straight whisk(e)y? And any interest in the "unusual" stuff? (unusual as in non-mainstream, local craft ciders or meads, regional fruit wines, experiments from local distilleries, etc) Now that I am not taking daily narcotics, I am starting to regain my taste for booze.
