Switch Witch Ketchup #5

Sorry dear Witch, but I got eaten by the ZOMG SW thread is overwhelming monster. BUT I did manage to dive in today and grab these questions from the great Lioness.   I hope all is well with you wherever you may be!   10/4/10 Do you have a preferred weight of yarn to work in? Lace, sock, worsted, bulky, handspun with variation? Don't sent me yarn, the cat might like it, but that's it. Anyone like little seasonal decorative wreaths? Like gravevine wreaths embellished with silk flora, etc.? Sure! I'd hang it up at work. Do any witchees need a Snuggie? We have several Snuggies, but they don't get used that often, so no thank you.   10/01/10 So, who here loves pomegranates? Are the good as a fruit, a flavoring or just a scent? When I was little we used to have a Pom tree in our yard.. eating them is fun, but a bit of a pain. They are yummy in juice and not so yummy on me. I've tried the 5 Weenie Pom scents and only one was a win and it wasn't the one I expected! I love Pom V, but I guess my love of amber redeems everything and the pepper actually behaved and didn't amp to high stinky heaven. Haunt Update? No thank you, I tried a few decants of their perfume and really was not amazed... everything just smelled like potpourri and really did not work with my chemistry.     9/30/10 Villainess has an update. Anyone wanting anything from it? Cobwebs sounds intriguing but I don't know if it would actually smell good? Curious but I don't think it's worth wasting money on.. I'd rather pick up some other tried and true favs.. hehe. how are all the witchees fixed for purses--lunchbags, etc? Hmmm I'm pretty picky about my purses, so please no. Lunch bags or that type of thing is welcome though. I love having a selection. Now, I have a question for you. About notes. Which are your favourite ones? Do you have a kind of "note top ten?" Anything that works particularly well on you? Do you have a perfume category (foody, floral, aquatic, musky) that you favour? And are there any notes you have never tried, but think would work well on you? Oh boy, hard question. Now I have to think! Though I also think I provide this info in various places. I tend to land with alot of the heavier type of scents. Incensey, musky. So far even the lighter scents I like end up having "weight". Like Green Tree Viper and Daiyu, they are lighter scents but in the end - they end up with a warm vanilla note. (doesn't smell like pastry cream that they stuff long johns with, but with that sort of scent heaviness to it. I think this is why I hate describing scents.. I have an odd vocabulary) Anyhoo I am trying to find some lighter sparkling types. But if that never happens, I'm happy with the fun ones I have now Would you like a sugar skull decorated by your witch? Or do you like sugar skull stuff in general? No thank you, I do think they are amazing and very beautiful, you never see things like that in Hawaii.. but it is very humid here and we have lots of bugs. I think the ants would find a way to carry it off!   9/29/10 Is there one scent that is your goto for comfort on a bad stressful day? Like the perfume equivilent of a security blankie? Not really, though I will go into the shower and use my peppermint soap to just breathe in and feel tingly and fresh and hopefully dissolve all the tension. What are you going to be for Halloween? I have no idea. Is there something just super random you like/enjoy/want/are ogling that has not been and will not be covered by any other questions, because it's just that WEIRD? I don't think so?   9/25/10 If you could make a scent that represents where you live (or have lived), what would be the ingredients? Nopers, this sounds soo negative, but I really can't imagine real scents getting captured in a bottle. I know sometimes that it does happen. And most times it's just nature, and I don't want to smell like it, I just enjoy it when I notice it. Are you in need of Roller bottles or anything of the like? Nopers, I do decant circles and can easily order this type of thing.   9/24/10 Just curious, but if your witch was to make an amigurumi critter (or other plushie) just for you, what would it be? A cat Would you want a local/tourist item from your witch? Like a t-shirt, mug or shot glass? Ummm none of the mentioned things, but if there's something foody like Jam, bread, cookies, YES PLEASE? Okay, who wants NAlloween and some Vampire Apothecary goodness? No thanks. There are so many etailers! Good grief! Venomous Villains? I got the pretties I wanted. Last Unicorn? I'm kinda meh, I gotta a read the story, and see the notes. I'm actually more interested in the RPG line. Who is your fav Disney Villian/villianess? How about hero/herione? (doesn't have to be specifically Disney though) Favorite Villain is Maleficent. Favorite disney char.. it's not a hero or a heroine... it's the fairies in Cinderella.. I love how they argued and I dunno, they are just soooo dang cute!!!   9/23/10 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? Not really, I would just lose it I know that just sounds sooo horrid, but I know me.. I would misplace it by accident. What's your favorite Halloween Music? Silly stuff.. Monster Mash! Thriller.   9/22/10 Do you have a deviantart print wishlist or favourites list? No I don't, I used to visit deviantart, but they had so much stuff it became overwhelming. Is there anything from Blooddrop that you want to try? GC? Halloween update? No thank you. What kind of shoes do you need/want? What size shoes do you wear? Would you mind gently used shoes? Hmm I don't need want any, my feet are picky and I wouldn't like used ones. Do you like paper dolls (new or vintage) or coloring in books? Not really Do you like weird scary things as traditionally girly fashion items like heels and handbags? No, I tend to gravitate toward elegant, clean lines. What song is on heavy rotation for you right now? Wow, weird.. I just realized I haven't been really listening to music lately. Are you coveting any of the NYCC atmospheric sprays? Nopers If you could get any one thing hand-painted from your witch, what would it be and what would be on it? Art is so subjective that I have a really hard time pinning it down... like perfume. Most times I just react. Which is so not helpful to my Witch >.< Sorry! Just surprise me, I know that I would love anything just because! Would you (assumin' you're a yarnie) be interested in a naturally-dyed yarn that's designed to very gradually fade with washing? I'm not a yarnie! Wheee easy question to answer. 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. Not SW (this is my first time) - I think one of the neatest things I ever received was a magazine that a friend cut & pasted into.. and subbed pics of our group of friends into. It was so different and obviously well thought out.. (p.s. Witch, the imps you sent would fall into this category!)   9/21/10 Can I talk to you about the living dead? How do you feel about Zombies? Umm you can talk to me about it?? They are alright, I read and watch stuff with them in them. I'm not particularly obsessed with them... I do love early Anita Blake stuff where she raised them and such, in fact I wish they would go back in that direction... BLAH!! lol!

Switch Witch Ketchup #4

Dear Witch – I’ve gotten very boring on this Ketchup, so many questions… and I have to admit some of them really don’t apply to me because I already mentioned I’m not very crafty so I don’t want that kind of thing. I think I’ve gotten to the point where I’ll have very short answers on stuff I think I’ve answered. I can barely get through the thread anymore.. I just hop in there to stalk my Witchee, grab the new questions and hop out. >.< I know.. I’m soo not SOCIAL!!!! I'll try to keep up with the questions but if you want more detail on questions I think I've answered before, please contact me. Thanks!   9/21/10 Do you like garlic? Do you REALLY like garlic? Would you want to try some really unusual garlic stuff, like garlic cheese or garlic fudge or garlic chocolate, etc., etc., etc.? Sure!   9/20/10 If you happened to be my Witchee, is there something you'd like from the Arcana Halloween update? Hmmm the only thing that appeals would be Straightjacket & Holy Terror Soap – I haven’t actually tried any Arcana Oils How many bottles of BPAL do you have? 10-15? Not very many, and not counting decant circle left-overs. Is there any exercise program that you're interesting in learning? Meditation, Yoga, Pilates, Belly Dancing, Zumba ect? Or if you do any of these (or anything else sport related) are there any things you need/want? Candles, music, mats, water bottles ect? I have dvds of meditation, yoga, pilates and belly dancing.. yeah I know.. I had fun doing them, but I’ve gotten out of the habit of exercising… I guess I should move my butt and start doing them again! (p.s. theatre can take up a lot of time so when I am in shows I stop doing that kind of stuff). I don’t really need any additional supplies. Anyone else into Emily Autumn? I don’t know who that is, nm – just looked her up. No. What's on your walls? Please show us up to three paintings/posters/whatever. If you love a painting so much that you would steal (to watch it with your greedy eyes) one, please share. I don’t have any paintings - yeah very boring.. and I wouldn’t necessarily steal one.. I WOULD steal some Erte Bronzes though! Mwahahaha. Do you like Girl Scout cookies? What kind? Thin Mints What's your take on homemade apple butter? Want some? I’ve never had any and would love to try it.   9/19/10 Do you read/like fantasy? What kind of books or authors do you love? Which one would you like to read? Would you like gifts related to it? I think I’ve already answered this? But if you want more indepth detail, give me a holler. Soaps : do you like them? What brands? What scents? Anything you're dying to try? See above fantasy question. I wondered if my witch or any witch would enjoy things like nice pens to draw with or anything similar? No I don’t draw. For those who are yarnies, would you like other-than-yarn witchery? Hooks, needles? Preference of material? Do you use/would you like handmade stitch markers, etc.? No. Does anyone do altered books? Would you be interested in old books to alter? Any type or title in particular? No. Did someone ask about incense yet? Would you like some? Something to store or burn it in? What scents? What form? No incense please. Any oddball free things you collect or would want saved for you? Umm no.   9/18/10 Who likes hair toys, and if so what kind? My hair is bad, it doesn’t get to play with toys. Okay silliness aside, I do like to use hair sticks and scrunchies. Does any art we may send need to be child safe, either in the actually safe sense or the non X rated sense? Ummm, I don’t have children so that’s okay, I would prefer not to get anything art related that’s x-rated. I do have a kitty, but seriously there’s nothing that’s ever kitty safe as far as I’m concerned.. they are imps! In the knitted/crocheted things area, would you want wrist warmers, 1/2 gloves, a neck warmer(the kind that pretty much just goes around your neck and maybe fastens instead of being long and loose like a scarf), slippers, or hats? ½ gloves and neck warmers would be my preference. How do you feel about altered/recycled/upcycled items of clothing or accessories? They would be cool. One of my fav stores on etsy makes these amazing (aka really expensive) upcycled sweater/jacket things. Is there anything you want from the Violette Market update? I haven’t tried VM scents at all. So… I actually don’t WANT these.. it’s more like if decants came my way I wouldn’t turn them down. Who am I kidding I wouldn’t turn decants of any kind down. But these are the scents that description’s that caught my attention: Ms. Dolly's Frock Shop, Miss Susanna West, Zarya Occultist and Tarot Card Reader, Lydia's Firefly Lanterns, Raven's Midnight Pumpkin Patch, Gertrude's Half-Haunted Bake Shop, Ghost Dancer, Glowing Jack O' Lantern. What is your favourite habitat and climate to live in? How about to visit? (ie. forest, canyons, mountains, by the beach; temperate, tropical...) I would love to live in a cool breezy forest, somewhere that didn’t get muggy. Oh and the forest would every so often have a nice big open space filled with grass that I could lie in the sun if I ever wanted…. What do you wish you could make/craft if you had the know-how and supplies? Specifically, which particular items? I don’t want to craft anything… so I shan’t answer this.. mwahhahahahah. SIGH – okay after typing that I felt guilty. Dear witch, if you HAD to torture me I would do jewelry. The only thing is I have a lot of supplies already, beads, crystals, pearls, Swarovski, metal findings… etc. I have a lot of supplies for a lot of unfinished hobbies lying around… please please PLEASE do not encourage that kind of pack-rat-ism in my life… LOL! Is there anything you would like from Conjure Oils general catalogue or the new updates that isn't already on your wishlist? I never realized it till this set of Ketchup, but I really haven’t tried a lot of other company’s oils. I haven’t ever tried Conjure. Scents that seem interesting are: Incubus, Lucifer, Succubus, Abandoned Morgue 2010, Calavera de Azúcar 2010, Sweet Death 2010. ( Wow, I might have to go find a circle, these are really appealing to me – I wish I hadn’t gone to see what their new scents are!) Am I alone in this, or is there a Book Fair/Comic Con scent you're dying to get your paws on, too? None of them are really calling out my name. Anyone need address/phone type books? Nopers   9/17/10 Are there any particular movies, tv shows or cd’s that you’ve been meaning to buy for years but just never got round to getting? Would you mind a gently used dvd/cd if your witch had it or could get it?? Firefly - gently used would be fine. Is there anything from the Possets' Hallowe'en update you're lusting after? Dark, Gypsy Grave and Melanie Would you like a custom/altered toy either from a seller or from your witch (like My Little Pony, or a Barbie or any particular toy that can be changed?) No thank you. Do you like the candy apple, candy corn or pumpkin spice kisses? I’ve never seen these!! I would love some! Anne Taintor, anyone? Not interested. Which web comics do you enjoy? Ummm Gunnerkrigg Court – but Im not interested in any products. OHHH but on a side note.. I really like Get Fuzzy, which is a real comic.. Fuzzy is such a rotter!   9/16/10 If I were to knit a scarf, would you prefer a skinny one, or a wide one? A short one, that when wrapped once around your neck will just tuck under your jacket, or a long one, at least to your waist? I have no idea, surprise me? Don't like scarves? Would a rectangular shawl or triangular shawl be more to your taste? Rectangular How do you feel about recipes? Love them. Though I don't need a recipe box. What I have is a recipe binder - Full sized regular binder that has sheet protectors as pages.. I just slide the recipes in. What kind of a cook/baker are you? I like to bake desserts of all kinds, though I haven’t actually tackled a full cheesecake (have done tartlets). Cooking wise, I do okay but am challenged with roasting big pieces of meat.. haven’t quite learned the art of this. My favorite cookbook is the Joy of Cooking – I love how crazy detailed it is. Are you happiest calling for delivery or microwaving a lean cuisine, Or will Food Network be asking you to host their new program? I enjoy food and cooking, but when I’m tired.. screw it – the microwave is the BEST invention EVER!!! I can't imagine the Food Network contacting me.. I don't have the ability to throw in a little bit of this and that together and miraculously have it taste good. If I send you something home made would you like the recipe for it? Sure! If you are someone who doesn't want baked goods sent, would you like a collection of some of my favorite recipes? Gimme the baked goods dammit!! No holding out allowed How about home made mixes or kits? Kind of like the cookie in a jar thing, where you would need to add the perishable ingredients? That sounds great, I haven’t ever received things like that, I would love to try it. if you are a tea lover, what are your flavor preferences? Green? Black? Herbal (I know, technically those are NOT teas, but tisanes)? Flavored blacks/greens? I think I’ve covered this question.

Switch Witch Ketchup #3

WITCH THIS IS CRAZY!! SOOOO MUCH KETCHUP I'm going cuckoo!!!   9/15/10 How do you feek about silly, funny knick-knack, dollar store stuff, stickers, magnets etc? Would you like receiving that kind of stuff or rather not? I like stickers and magnets... not so sure about the other stuff? Silly is always good though! Is there a specific book you've been wanting to get but haven't found the time or the opportunity to? I always have these... the only one that is popping into my head are the Stiegg Larssen ones... and one I heard about that is in HC.. Rock Paper Tiger by Brackmann Do you read mangas/watch animes? Which ones? Do you have a particular favourite? Would you like to receive mangas or anything related to them? No thank you Are you open to receiving things that are not on your wishlist, maybe something your Witch thinks you might like? Definitely! If you have something on a wishlist that we could craft INSTEAD of buying, though it might not end up identical to the wishlist thing, would it be okay to craft it instead? Obviously we don't want to copy anyone else's design, but if we can replicate the flavour or intent that you like without stepping on toes? Sure! OK, I know that lots of folks love socks. Do you have a preference of length? Materials? Patterns? Super soft and superduper long! How do people feel about word magnets They be good!   9/14/10 Chocolate or other types of candy? Chocolate and fleur de sel caramels are favs. Things I'm not fond of... Skittles, starbursts, gummy bear/worms. For tea drinkers, do you prefer loose leaf or tea bags? I prefer loose, but I drink bagged stuff too. If you would enjoy something of a knitted persuasion, do you have a preference on type of thing? Since making a scarf for someone who has 10 might be a smidge excessive? Also, how do people feel about shawls? I don't have very many knitted things, so scarves and shawls are welcome. Is there a TV, movie or literary character that you are a lot alike, or would like to be alike? Ummm I don't think so.. I'm not half as exciting as anything in the media! Is there anything you need for your kitchen, ie measuring cups, spoons, grater, ect? Hmmm I could use a new set of measuring spoons - I keep losing spoons slowly but surely! >.< They are like socks to me. Music, DO you prefer Live or Studio? Edited or explicit? Studio, explicit If you are an animal lover, is there a specific type/breed that you love most? Kitties!!!!! Only ones I don't like are the persians with squished in faces and poor hairless types. Also flowers and plants- If you like flowers/plants, do you have a favorite(s)? I think I put this on my original questionnaire Do you have a favorite quotation? You would think I have this memorized.. I have to go look it up >.<.. will edit this in (Day 2 and I still forgot to look this up. ARGH) Song lyric? Book passage? WhateverthehecktheycalltheanonymousregionalwisdomthingiePROVERB! that word. What is a bpal scent that you've been dying to try for awhile but just can't find? (A scent where even a tester would do) Candy Butcher, XCDL13, and Romanti.goth Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that you have some children/spawn (1 or more), and, hypothetically speaking, your witch would like to spoil them a little but knows nothing of kids these days. What do they like or dislike? Also is there anything a (sane) adult might think they would like that you don't think is appropriate for whatever reason? (I'm thinking of things like temp tattoos, make up, things that make noise, or anything else that might be bad for non-obvious reasons.) Don't have any children, please stop!! This is giving me nightmares! Is there anything you would like that can be delivered over the internet? Things like fanfic recs, cat macros, mp3s you are looking for, how-to or amusing videos, things like that Ummm nothing that comes to mind. What would your last meal be if it could be anything in the world (sky is the limit, drinks too, the whole shebang) I'm such a foodie, that this question disturbs me... pick!! choose!! WHAT!!! NOOO!!! Oy. I would love a really good medium rare steak with a baked potato, slathered in butter, crisp steamed vegetables and at the end crazy rich to die for triple chocolate cake. NaNoWriMo? Nopers, I'm a reader not a writer.

Switch Witch Ketchup #2

Alrighty round 2... I'm sorry but it's not totally fleshed out. I'll prolly come back in a day or two to answer some of the questions better. Most of these are finished though.   9/13/10 what interests you from the latest lab update? Lilith's Tea Party, I have alot of decants coming to me from the Halloweenie's and until I try them out, I can't say what I'd actually like? I'll update this if I do find some wants in there though! How do you feel about stationery, like nice pens or notepaper? And if you're in favor, do you prefer classic/contemporary or cutesy stuff? I like them, I tend to like to go for the more classy things or retro pop.. bright colors appeal to me as long as they aren't clashy. Would you like homemade preserves (e.g. marinated vegies, pickled onions, chilli jam?) Would love them! If you've got stuff on your BPAL wishlist, would partial bottles be okay? Sure! Though I STILL NEED TO UPDATE MY WISHLIST!! I have to add a few more things so please don't despair that it looks really small right now. Would you like something you have to make yourself? No please, I have too many 1/2 done projects in my life. 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? Ohhh go for it! Who is your favorite soap etailer? Hard question.. Villainess is really up there, but I'm pretty well stocked up at the moment... Sooooo my next etailer would be... Savor. I need to get more Creme Fraiches. I love Peppermint, Starfruit Pavlova and Princess Bride. I prolly will try to get mini's of Coconut Mochi, Dulce de Leche, Creme Brulee, Gingerbread, Pear Quince, & Lemon Lime Poundcake.. OHH and one day try their new Shea Butter Scrub things... Can you tell I'm a bath freak... *exasperated at self sigh* Dear Witch, please don't feel pressured by the huge list, I'm just rambling alot to give you ideas! What about vintage decoration items, teacups, etc etc? Ummm not quite my cup of tea, though I find the faded colors so pretty. 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 don't have a preference, whatever works best for my Witch! What kind of make-up do you wear? What colors? Is there anything you'd like to try but haven't yet? I wear all kinds, mostly been grabbing my Archetype stuff though. I have all colors of the rainbow and what I wear really depends on my mood. Who would be on your top 5 (IE famous people you’d date/have relations with )Vin Diesel, Johnny Depp (will get back on the rest of them) Do you crave many Ecards and contact or are you okay with little contact from your Witch? I'm okay with little contact, but if my Witch likes to do it more often then I have no qualms about it! Do you have a place where you list all the BPAL you have or have tried? No, I just have a printed out list that I update.. sorry my witch Do you like maple sugar candy? Yum! What is your position on the chocolate & bacon flavor combination? I haven't tried anything like this yet, but would LOVE TO! If you are a tea-drinker do you need a tea-cozie for your pot? No, I don't have a teapot.. I know blasphemy.. I tend to use those fill your own loose tea teabags. Go to your spice cabinet, what are the three most used spices? Garlic, Onion, Cinnamon Microsoft or Apple? Microsoft. Where was your last vacation? What did you like most?(will come back to this) Would you appreciate receiving handwritten letters and/or postcards (anonymous or not)? How about sending them? I'm so-so on this, I would appreciate it, but it doesn't necessarily float my boat? I have sad handwriting so sending a hand written letter is probably not going to happen.   9/12/10 Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to go to last.fm immediately and create an account! Download the scrobbler! Link us to your account! If you reject this assignment, maybe just tell us what your mp3 player says you listen to a lot? Okay I don't want to do this thing.. I have too much stuff on my computer to want to add to the madness and mayhem that it contains.... Sorry I kinda am grinchy about this. My Ipod would tell you that I listen to waaaaaaayyyy too many fiction pieces. I particularly love listening to fantasy, science fiction and horror story podcasts. I also love Scott Siegler.. he podcasts his novels in segments and he totally rocks as a writer/podcaster. Music is very pop-ish.. though I tend to have the music for the musical I'm currently in rehearsal for or the musical I'm interested in trying out for on there. Any countries you're interested in? Wasnt this a questionnaire question? Would you enjoy homemade bath products (bath salts, fizzies, etc.) and/or linen sprays? Esp. if scented with some of your favorite BPAL scents? Oh yeah baby! If you witch made you something and it didn't come out just right, would you still want it? Sure! I would be touched to have something that someone put time and energy into. Are you a foodie? YES!!!!!!!!! !!!!! Any sports fans in the house? What's your favorite sport/team/player? No, I'm not into sports at all. 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 would say I really love elegant.. then crafty folksy... campy is not my style. Do you like journals/notebooks/sketchbooks? I think they are pretty, but I wouldn't really journal with them. Regarding sketchbooks - I really am not artistically talented in that way.. even my stick figures go "wtf?"   9/11/10 Cake truffles? If YES! Cake/icing/chocolate type? Yes.. chocolate, dark chocolate, lemon, and spicecake.. and icing whatever would go with them? are you interested in mini bottles(under 100ml for hand luggage) of bath and body products? Sure! Mini's are a great way to try items without getting stuck with something you might not like. Vampire shows, literature, etc? Yay or nay? Generally I say yay. Though lately the quality of books has gone down.. too many authors trying to cash in on the popularity of vampires and the paranormal. I actually gave Twilight credit for the sparkling vampire angle.. it's fresh. If you play console video games, what game systems do you have and what games would you love to have? I don't play console video games, just computer games... In particular World of Warcraft. Allied, Dwarf Priest.... How do you all feel about flowers and plants? Flower and plant seeds? Drawings of flowers or plants? Pressed flowers? Flower and plants are awesome... I kill them unfortunately >.< So I just enjoy them as I see them or when I buy a bouquet. Pressed flowers make me feel sad, poor squashed things >.< How do you feel about marzipan? Dislike 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? Smiling Spider, Black Panther, and Metal Tiger. Hmm, I apparently have an animal theme going on??? O.O Are there any international treats that you love and have a hard time finding? I would love to get any international or regional specialties as I haven't really had the chance to try any.. Is there anything from the 'Ween BPTP update that you would like but haven't ordered for yourself? The Trick Baby doll Vneck Tee and Candy Corn Coated Candy Apple. If you are a crafter, would you like to receive supplies from your witch (beads, fabric, yarn/roving etc?) No thank you. Find your iPod (or other MP3 device), put it on shuffle/random. What are the first five songs to come up? If I Told You - The Wedding Singer Musical Sound track I'm Not Dead - Pink Til' the Morning - Mary J. Blige Unwind - Pink No Parade - Jordan Sparks Soundtracks you'd like?(will get back to this) If you could see one concert right now, who would it be? Lady Gaga   9/10/10 Would you like a bag of dried Honeycrisp apples? Sure! If you were to receive a knitted item (such as a scarf, hat, etc), what colors would you like? And do you have any sensitivies/allergies to any materials? Please no hats, I would never wear it. No sensitivities. Colors - Black, purple, forest green or claret. Gift Certificate: physical or email? Doesn't matter, though email seems easier. Favorite Yankee Candles? Or other brands scents? I used to have a favorite, in fact I just recently burned my last jarred candle that represented a Japanese goddess.. and I for the LIFE OF ME CANNOT REMEMBER THE BRAND It's a posh brand and I'll have to look up the company to see if they are still around. I swear to god, somehow I'm killing brain cells and I'm not exactly sure HOW!! (okay pity party over ) would you like a zuni animal fetish? And if so, what animal? No thank you And how does everyone feel about glow in the dark radishes? http://www.etsy.com/...=cat1_gallery_8 No thank you, they are really not me! What places to do you visit that you'd like a gift card to? Starbucks, Target, Wal-Mart, B&N, a favorite restaurant or clothing shop? Borders Books, Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Itunes Cake or Frosting?Cake

Switch Witch Ketchup #1

*waves at anyone who visits* Thanks for visiting!   Hiya there, this is just the beginning of Ketchup/Condiments... and all that good stuff.. Sorry for the huge wall 'o text. I figured I might as well ramble to give my witch a better idea of who I am.   9/9/10 What movie scared the bejeezus out of you as a child? The Shining and the original Nightmare on Elm Street Name a couple of sites you frequent other than this one. Whatever (John Scalzi's Blog - sci-fi/fantasy author), The Pink Pigtail Inn (WoW Blog), Lush forums (though I mostly lurk), Etsy (when I'm really bored at work I window shop >.<), I've also gone through phases where I've read alot of nail polish and MMU blogs. Do you like the Muppets? Which is your favorite? Yes, Hmmm I think Beaker is my favorite - he was always soooo trapped! Then Animal and Statler & Waldorf (??? yeah, I must have been a weird kid). I HATE Miss Piggy, she was such a diva, that I wouldn't mind punting her somewhere! If you could have any creature (real or imaginary) as a pet, what would it be? A black panther and a mink Comfort Rereads?: I re-read alot of my books, but I don't consider them comfort re-reads. Will you be going out of town during the round, or is there any other time during the round when it would not be ideal for you to receive a package from your witch? Nope I'll be here all the time. If you are in school now, what classes are you taking? Does anything you are currently studying really interest you? (if you are not in school, is there anything you are trying to learn?) Not in school, but trying to continuously learn about myself in general. What animal would your daemon be? Alternately, your patronus. I got Sensitive Soul on a Daemon test and kinda went.. "huh?" Then again I cry really easy at most movies... so I guess I do have a very sappy side, but I try not to pay much attn. to it. What's YOUR favorite word? Bauble - don't ask, I don't really know why, but it just feels neat trying to say it.. lol!   9/8/10 Do you have a special symbol or totem that is meaningful to you? Phoenix - which made finding BPAL very apropo! Do you need a box for your bpal bottles? Your imps? Your something else to put in a box stuff? I could always use boxes! If you could be any person, being, or animal from Fantasy what or who would you be? I would love to be Anita Blake before she got really slutty. I used to love how she would be no nonsense kick ass and ready to die for her principles.. (I know alot of peeps like the way the character went, and in general I don't mind it, but I think she was actually stronger and more interesting before she turned into a nympho) If you could go back to any point in time, where, when, why? I would like to go back to Victorian England and experience a debutante ball.. as a debutante of course! Yeah I'm shallow and have read waaaay too many romances in that time period. Favorite Halloween Candy/Treat? Sugar Daddies and chocolates What are your favorite baked goods/homemade treats? Oy, I love baked goods, cakes, brownies, candies.. it's hard to go wrong here... as long as it's horribly unhealthy or if you can hide the fact that it's healthy very well, teehee! I especially love homemade Chex Mix.. cause I never make it myself! Would you be interested in an astrology birth chart? Hmm hard one, I've dabbled lightly in this... I would like one if it came with a reading not generated by software? Or if it's drawn/done in an artistic way... 9/7/10 Socks? Sock Dreams? Anyone? I love Sock Dreams. Thigh highs, Leg/Arm Warmers, and fingerless gloves. Fav purchases have been - the micro fiber chenille arm/leg warmers (I love how squishy super soft they are!) and the super long ribbed leg warmers. I know it sounds odd that I live in Hawaii and use these, but sometimes it gets cold here and we don't have heaters in our house! What is something you use to comfort yourself when feeling yucky, depressed, or in pain? Hot long baths, curling up in bed with a good easy to read fantasy book. Unicorns, elves and dragons come take me away??? Favorite Halloween/Scary movies/books: The first thing that popped into mind were the old Abbot and Costello movies with Frankenstein and Dracula and all that, but I don't know if that's really is considered Halloween or even scary. What would the name of your custom blend be? The description? Seriously I have no talent in this way. It was really hard answering the question on the Questionnaire. Perfumes seem to be a big mystery to me and I love approaching them with a child's innocence. COMIC BOOKS. Do you read them? Are there any series you like, or some you would like to try? Not really into comics, I did like "The Sandman" by Neil Gaiman ages ago... but I'd say comics are the last thing I would try. Warm drinks? I love reg. and raspberry hot chocolate and lots of tea. Real tea please.. not herbal or rooibos type. I don't like mulled wine or anything like that though.   9/6/10 When you go to an etsy wishlist, it will tell you what things are sold. If you click on the sold item, sometimes it will give options that are similar to what was sold, but not identical, would you like the similar item or prefer not to get it at all unless it's the same item? How picky are you? Not that picky, I tend to like an artist's work in general. Though what is on my list will most likely be my favorite piece. Do you wear make up? Yes, though the amount I wear varies on my mood. I would say I'm a medium user - definitely for work and maybe on the weekends. I do like to collect tons of colors though, because I do community theatre and can get away with wild super vivid/sparkly crazy stuff there! Disney movies, Yay or Nay, and favourites if you do like them? Umm more like meh??? Not all that interested, sorry. Do you have A VCR, DVD Player or Blue Ray or a combo of the three? DVD and Blue Ray Would you like custom icons as a gift? No thank you, I don't use any... *eyes her boring profile* Hmm on second thought, maybe I SHOULD say yes? Lol! I would have to say that on this I would be pretty picky... I'm picky about how phoenix are portrayed.   9/5/10 What is your favourite snack food, something you could grab any time? Candy bars and Lays potato chips. Ebooks: No thank you, I love paperbacks. Nail Polish: Love them, have a nice collection.. I'm like a magpie and love brights and sparklies and shinies! Neutrals not so much. Would love to get my hands on BB Couture's Kelly's Green or OPI's Alice in Wonderland. Soft/plushy things: Umm if they are cute and small (shorter than hand height?) I'd be up for it... don't have much room for more. What hobby/craft would you like to learn how to do? Nothing at the moment, I have lots of half finished projects around the house. >.< For those who decorate for Halloween, do you prefer cute decorations or creepy ones?: I love both, though cute tends to win out. Also, as part of the cute-or-creepy question, would you want hand made, molded, glazed (by yours truly!) ceramic decorations (napkin rings, potporri/tart warmers, etc) to add to your stock? Oh that would be wonderful! I envy all you blessed with craftiness! how do you feel about mortars and pestles: I haven't ever used them. Is there anything you have a phobia of, or that would make you go "squick" if you saw it in a package? Bugs.. not that I can imagine anyone giving me bugs, but yeah.. unless they are like cute - like a stuffed spider beanie baby... but realistic bugs.. no thank you!   9/4/10 Are you into Austen's books? No, not at all Do you read Tarot cards? If not, would you be interested? I do dabble every once in a blue moon. I own several decks all that were picked because they really appealed to me. The Shadowscapes deck is the deck I'm currently coveting. So for those of you who are into Harry Potter at all, which house do you think you'd be sorted into? Not sure, I would like to be Gryffindor but who knows and right now I'm a tad too lazy to go looking for the quiz. What, if anything, is your guilty TV watching pleasure? The model contest one.. run by Tyra Banks. If you cosplay or need a costume for your bellydance/burlesque hobby (or any other hobby which needs dressup/different from your normal wear), is there anything you need/want for it? No. Celebrity crush?: Vin Diesel, but please don't gift me anything with him plastered on it. I just crush on him in his movies.. and I have them all. I especially love him The Chronicles of Riddick series... his voice! *swoon* Knitted things?: Would be welcome, again I marvel at other's crafty talents! What about [mixed or otherwise] DVDs? I've never seen one of these, so yes? I'm open to new things! DVDs: Do you prefer widescreen or formatted? no preference Music: Any preference towards MP3 or CD? no preference Do you like scented tarts? Yes, in fact soon I'll be looking to getting some fall/xmas scents. though in general I like cakey, lemon, bright smells.. not so into patchouli or heavier types. Lip balms? Not really, though if you have one that you think rocks, I love to be enabled. Do you have any body mods? If so, do you need any new jewelry, o-rings, plugs, etc (and if so, what size, length, etc)? Do you like pro-body mod stickers? No body mods? Do have regular pierced ears but that's it. Don't have a clue of what a pro-body mod sticker is... Booze. Do you drink it, would you like some: I do drink it, I don't think you should send me any unless it's a chocolate cordial-ish type of thing. I'm pretty sure Hawaii doesn't allow it to be shipped here, cause I haven't been able to order any wine! What is your favorite artist or art style? (including if you have links to favorite pictures/paintings/photographs) (I'll have to get back to this one, I'm rather eclectic - 9/9/10)     9/03/10 Hallowe'en plans? Not at the moment, at the very least I'll be passing out candy, but I haven't done that for a bit Mix CDs? Sure, I love to get introduced to new things. Girlyness level? I would say.. um Medium? I don't go outta my way to decorate with cute stuff or put bows in my hair or on my clothes. But I can appreciate cute things (if not neccessarily buy them.) I definitely do make up and nails and have a HUGE love for high heels and boots. I like pink and have been told I look good in it... I've never been the type to dot my i's with hearts or doodle cute swirlies. Though you might never know that from the way I seem to abuse emoticons. >.< Oh and lace is... so so? I do love the sparklies, though most times I run outta the house without jewelry. 9/02/10 Baked goods: Are welcome Gifts for other household members: Not necessary Are you someone who'd rather have lots of small testers of different things on your wishlist, or would you rather have one or two "big" things? Whatever works for my Witch social networking usernames, ie twitter, facebook, livejournal, ravelry, anything else: I'm Azuraephoenix on LJ, though I don't actually do anything but sign up for circles there. would you like to receive Groupons or similar deals/gift certificates from your Witch? No, thank you How about tshirt/bottoms sizes? If it's a woman cut t-shirt - XL, if its standard/man then L. Bottoms - I'm a 10/12   Okay if you made it this far down the Q & A of doom. I figured I'd post this little bit of extra info about me.   I really do love to try new products and things.. even though it might seem I ruled them out above.. for example you LOVE this particular Rooibos tea and really none of the others compare.. then feel free to send me a sample of it, who knows maybe I just never had the good stuff?? And will fall in love with it? So feel free to try to enable me... that's why I love these forums! (oh though really no.. I don't want any Jane Austen.)
