Just a note, I didn't start collecting questions for this swap until the 29th so that is why the days of the first question or so is off ^_^

 

November 12th

 

chile, yay or nay? (Example: I had a delicious dark chocolate bar the other day that had dried cherries and red chile....YUM! There are local cookies here that are shortbread type with chile. And of course, in NM we are famous for our chile ristras which are mostly decorative (though usually you could use the dried chiles if you wanted to).)

 

November 11th

 

Let's talk about fruit! Do you like dried fruit or h ate it? Like some but not others?

 

How do you feel about cherries? Prefer the sweet or tart versions? Dried? Jam? Salsa? Hot sauce? BBQ sauce?

 

What is your general philosophy about patterns for accessories such as socks, scarves, and tights? Do you like solids? Stripes? Polka dots? Weird patterns like harlequin-type stuff? Any of the above?

 

November 10th

 

Would anyone else be interested in a soap dish or something like that?

 

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

 

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?

 

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

 

November 9th

 

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

 

Do you like coin purses?

 

November 8th

 

Do you prefer dark or milk chocolate?

 

 

November 7th

 

What are your opinions on traditional holiday cookie flavorings? I'm thinking anise and cardamom in particular.

 

Do you like artisan oils and vinegars?

 

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

 

November 6th

 

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?

 

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

 

Do you need any holiday recipies? 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?

 

Speaking about candles, how much do you look forward to the BPTP candles that will be launched on Etsy? I don't know if there will be other scents than the Samhain and Pumpkin Cookie one, but is there a specific one you are longing for?

 

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

 

Are you a big ol' nerd for any particular subject? Science, math, linguistics, etc? Or particular authors/fandoms?

 

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

 

fingerless mittens or full mitts?

 

 

November 4th

 

reveal, yes or no?

 

Any favorite cuddly characters?

 

Moxie Nouveau groupon?

 

what's your favourite colour?

 

Your favourite gemstone?

 

Your favourite animal (real or imaginary)?

 

And do you have any intense phobias?

 

Are you Nano-ing this month, bunny? If so, how would you feel about merch/donations to the cause?

November 2nd

 

Is there any particular holiday DVD that you don't have that you would like to own?

 

How do you feel about superheros? Are you a Marvel or DC fan? Do you have a favorite hero?

 

Would my bunny like anything in particular from Lush? I do have access to an actual Lush store, and also wouldn't mind ordering retro items online.

 

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

 

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?

 

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

 

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

 

The Paintbox Soapworks Yules are up, or at least round one is (updates coming throughout the week). Interested in anything?

Will you be away for any part of the round?

 

Anyone else with an Etsy store and a member of Tradeaholics (or you could join) and interested in bartering for gifts for their bunny? Everything in my shop is up for trade.

 

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

 

If you like Christmas music (or any other holiday music, for that matter), what kind of style do you like? Traditional? Modern and poppy? Indie?

 

Do you enjoy things that taste like roses? For example chewing gum, turkish delight, delicious goo that you eat by the spoonful out of a glass jar (and they all taste of rose. Yes, we have all these in Greece.)

 

Also, same question about mastic. Would you be interested in trying it out? (If yes, any preferences? for example you wold prefer to try the chewing gum, the turkish delight, an Easter bun (I can go hunting, some companies make them all year round although it's not the same as the bakery Easter ones XD), the raw resin itself, anything?)

 

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).

 

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

 

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?

 

Does anything from Fusion Sweets interest you?

 

Interested in anything from the Elements and Artifacts Yule update?

 

October 30

 

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

 

Would you like a special ornament?

 

Tim Tams. Yay or nay?

 

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?

 

Would any Bunny like to receive Holiday serving bowls, trays, platters etc...?

Winter/Christmas or Thanksgiving/Fall themed?

 

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?

 

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?

 

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

 

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

 

Would you wear something like this if your Fox were to knit you one? If so, what color? http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gap-tastic-cowl

Have you tried anything from Cocoa Pink and if so, what products and scents do you like or would like to try?

 

Anybody into nail polish? Any color or formula preferences?

 

If you found a $50 bill on the ground and were to place a Lab order, what would be in it? (And shipping is free through the magical BPAL unicorn!)

 

 

October 29th

 

So... someone has gifted you a $20 gift card from Walgreen's to ONLY use on things for yourself. No necessities here. What do you buy?

 

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).

 

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?)?

Is there any sort of regional food/drink/treat you miss or have always wanted to try?
