Awesome farmer's market by my house. They have a local honey stand (which also sells things made from local honey like Propolis tincture!); there's a small apothecary and she additionally makes soaps and hand-made, hand-poured scented candles; plus a guy that makes an array of BBQ and Hot Sauces. Does ny of this appeal? Would you like anything from my local farmer's market?

9/26/17


Claire's has some super cute Halloween stuff. In the style of Haunted Mansion - black lace collars, lace and sparkle masques and the like. A few items in Dias de los Muertos style. Would you be interested in such things? Any spooky stud earrings that are hypoallergenic would be nice to have! :)

Would you be interested in anything from Orange Thyme? https://shoporangethyme.com/ If so, which products/scents/flavors? Yes but the lip balms I like were out of stock, cherry ginger ale and earl grey tea

What are your top three most wanted DC'd or previous LE BPALs? Hmmmm...Snowblind is one...let me think on the others?

What are some things you do NOT want to receive? Hmm...sex toys, Arsenal supporters gear, or live bees. I mean, I'm pretty gracious to be receiving anything from a stranger but I'm going to draw the line at the above.

9/25/17

Anyone like/want calendars or dayplanners? YAAAAAS I AM AN ADDICT.
If you like stationery, do you like plain, colors, images, or specific DON'T LIKES? Colors or images are fine, but mind I'm sending most letters to my grandmother so no like, explicit stationary.
What about general desk stuff like cool colored paperclips and post it pads? Not as needed, though I'd like a post-it with something catty on it.

Would you be into receiving hand made (crocheted, sewn, felted, chain maille, scale, or duct tape, in my case, depending on the item) dishclothes? Scarf/shawl? Hat? Bag? Anything? Colors? (Duct tape, chain maille, and scales come in colors.)
Dishcloths, scarves, bags - purples, blues, jewel tones

Do you collect anything from SBUX like City Mugs, City Mug ornaments, City Cards, or Bearistas? If so, which do you need/want? Or would you like a City Mug or an ornament for fun?
I'll never say no to a new coffee mug...

anybody want homemade fudge? I can do chocolate with or without nuts, peanut butter, and butterscotch.
You had me at chocolate. Chocolate peppermint or chocolate marshmallow would be divine.

do you like spicy foods? I am currently addicted to these suckers and want to send you some buffalo ridged kettle potato goodness (https://www.billygoa...shop/1lb-kicker)
I do, though I'm less of a fan of buffalo sauce...more sriracha.

what would you like from the Weenies updatus giganticus??? Oh dear! I'm buying myself a bottle of Pumpkin Spice Snake Oil. I'd like to try Pumpkin Chypre and September Midnight (any year, really...) I'd try decants of The Apparition, Cardamom Cream Pumpkin Cake, Cinnamon Chai Cupcake (though I'm pretty sure the cinnamon won't like me...) La Calavera Catrina, Nebulaphobia, I Heard Many Things in Hell

9/24/17

do you collect the art cards that BPAL sends out? Any in particular that you are looking for or definitely don't need? I don't really collect them, but I appreciate them and keep them in my bpal desk

Favorite animals or wild creatures or mythological creatures? Hmm, I love cats (especially black ones), owls of all types, red pandas, turtles, seals, aw heck...I like most animals.

would you like any swag from the Depeche Mode concert? (pins, posters, shirts, program, dunno what they'll have!) No thanks!

Is anyone interested in the new Resistance scents that the Lab just released (Take a Knee and SN: Flor de Maga)? Flor de Maga, no interest in Take a Knee.

Is anyone here into zero waste, plastic free living, urban homesteading, or any simplicity/minimalism-esque lifestyles? If so, could you use any tools or equipment? - I am trying to get into minimalism via Marie Kondo but I'm struggling.





9/23/17

Are you interested in anything from Bath & Bodyworks? Which products and scents do you like? www.bathandbodyworks.com/
I'm a Marshmallow Fireside addict. I did buy two of the big 3-wicks during the sale (shh.) but I'd love to try it in a Wallflower. Bonus points if you can make my car smell like this.
I also really like the lavender & cedarwood aromatherapy line - smells like non-burning dryer sheets TKO on me. (TKO and I don't get along.) I have a 3-wick in this scent but I'd love it in a body lotion or other slather-it-on-yourself product.
The Vanilla and Patch aromatherapy was also of interest but I cut myself off during candle-palooza so I don't actually have anything that smells like this.
I don't any of the Holidays 2018 line for xmas when it comes out, I'm still limping through last year's haul of VBN and Twisted Peppermint!

I am possibly going to a crystal / gem show tomorrow. I can't afford expensive gem stones, but...
What kind of crystals would you like?
I'm really interested into getting into crystals! I think moonstones are cool and amethyst and just really, any crystal is a good place to start.

Pumpkin or Zucchini bread? Sure! Are you getting the notion that I like sweets and baked goods? Because I do.

What kind of homemade cookies are your favorite? Ooh...uhm...I am a big fan of oatmeal chocolate chip. Lemon cookies are love. Chocolate chip is a good old standby. Gingersnaps. I mean, really you can't go wrong with cookies.

Could you use a muscle rub? (We make ours on the lunar cycle and it has menthol, wintergreen, habanero, cayenne, olive oil, st. john's wort, arnica, beeswax, calendula, and ginger. It tingles. We call it "Thunder Butter". If you have really really super sensitive skin, I would recommend against it. And don't take a hot shower or open all of your pores before using it.)
I would like to try a tiny amount of this, and honestly maybe more for my hubby than me? I rash out from cinnamon so...

Interested in trying some of our rose petal (rose petals, sugar, everclear) or lavender vanilla bean (lavender, vanilla bean, vodka) liqueur?
I'm not super huge into floral liquor :(

Want some honey from the bees on our property?
Does a bear shit in the woods? Yes, fresh honey = love.

Would you like somemade jam? I have blackberry, rose petal, strawberry rhubarb, peach, and cherry.
YES. Rhubarb, peach, cherry, blackberry...

How about some homemade candied jalapenos with garlic cloves? I have regular and with habanero.
This...would scare me just a little.

I didn't dry any apples this year but I was thinking of heading over to Green Bluff and seeing if any honeycrisps are left. I have a commercial dehydrator so let me know if you are interested in any "Apple Crips" (as voodoocatwoman calls them!) I wash, peel, core, and slice before dehydrating.
YES PLEASE.

Do you need any kind of dice bag, tote, project bag, cosmetic bag, pencil bag, or whatever? I have lots of bag patterns and fabric. We make bags under the name Twinkle N Twilight.
Or how about a couple of pillowcases?
I would get use out of a dice bag and cosmetics bags.

9/22/17

Would my witchee like this to warm up the fall coffee cup?? https://www.truelemo...gory-s/1871.htm Oh heck yeah, I'd try that! I like their cherry limeade mmm

do you like to take baths? if so, do you like oils, salts, things that fizz, all of the above, none of the above? I like bath salts (not the drugs!), bombs, and I'll use some oils sparingly. I'm less into giant mounds of bubbles.

What style/make/etc of phone do you have? What about size of tablet? Laptop? I've got a Chromebook and I'd love a decal for it! It's a white shell and it's uh...14 inches? I think? I also have a Samsung Galaxy S6 phone in an otterbox. I'd love a PopSocket for it.

9/21/17

So, question: Are any witchees into coloring books? I am and I always welcome more!

See's Candy. My absolute favorite. They have special Halloween candy..any of these pique your interest?? Cinnamon Apple Scotch Mallows, Pumpkin spice truffles, pumpkinspice lollypops, caramel apple lollypops, or any other of their chocolates, etc?
You really can't go too wrong with dark chocolate + anything (Well, within reason. Dark chocolate and mushrooms is a TOTAL no-go.)

9/20/17

Do you like Broadway shows/music? If so what are some of your favorites and/or ones that you hope to see or listen to eventually? Would you like merch from your favorite shows or CDs from shows you want to listen to?
I really like Hamilton, but I'm not super into broadway otherwise!

I'm heading to NYCC in October! Is there anything I can get my Witchee while I'm there?
Broadway, Apple V, or Apple VII

I'm going to Edmonton Expo this weekend (It's Edmonton's version of comic con). Would a witchee like anything from there?
Probably not?

Anything catch your eye from this site (globalgirlfriend.com)?
tbd

Do you have any favorite, lesser-known stores? Especially ones that sell hand-crafted or independently made items.
Nah?

Imagine you're going to the most gigantic art & craft show imaginable, and money is no object - what kind of things would you gravitate towards and probably spend money on? Include as specific as you want to get!
handmade candles and bath and body goodies - especially goat's milk lotion.

9/19/17

Are you interested in anything from Think Geek? http://www.thinkgeek.com
Hmmm...anything fandom themed.

Do you have something you wish you put on your original questionnaire/forgot to put/would like to add on to?
Huh, I don't think so.

If you could decorate your house (or one room) in any one theme, what would it be? Your answer can be as simple ("Star Wars" or "Baroque" or "Modern"), or complicated or a combination (e.g. Victorian Gothic) as you feel best fits.
Uhhh....I would say an art deco living room and a spa-like bedroom and my computer room could totally be Bioshock or Fallout themed...

Aprons: Do you wear them, do you want one? Utility, decorative, cooking or crafting?
I do not, but I really should when cooking.

BTW, would my witchee be interested in something like this? (photo of black and white striped knitted doll)
No please, that's mildly terrifying.

9/18/17

It seems like there's a question about socks on the questionnaire, but I don't think it got down to this level: Do you wear them? Any particular style (crew length, knee high, anklet, boot, etc.) or fiber (wool, cotton, bamboo anything but wool, etc.) preference?
Anything over the calf needs to be for curvy girls. I have...athletic...calves. LOL. I'm interested in a good pair of wool hiking socks.
Would you be open to previously-loved books?
Yep! Probably safest as I'm very hard on books...bathtub reader and dog-earer...*guilty look*

What about partial-full bottles of BPAL or BPTP?
Oh yeah. I don't mind partially loved bpal.

So what are your favorite fandoms?
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Game of Thrones. Bioshock, Fallout, Overwatch.

LAVENDER. Yes! Lotion or soap or something bathing related <3

I'm not into tarot, but I've been wanting to try it. I've looked at decks and the linestrider seems to be calling my name. I'm open to other types as well though, so a beginner's book or some help is what I need :)

World my Witchee be interested in a Tarot or Astrology reading done personally?
Yes please!

Does my Witchee need any magical supplies?
TALs, candles, crystals - magic me up!

Would you be interested in any of the seasonal (or regular) soaps from Cellar Door Soap (https://cellardoorbathsupply.com)?

If so, would you prefer a traditional style or a vertical door type? I'm going to pass, my last SW spoiled me on the Halloween decor!

9/14/17

Do any of you potential Witchees have any kitties, puppers, or youngling humans you want spoiled in your packages? What treats or toys do they like?

Is there any interest in any of the fragrance oils from the Nocturne Alchemy Weenies update? I'll have to check, but I've been thinking about getting into NAVA's vanillas? Anything chai-spicy too.

Is there anything you want from the trading post (or trading post etsy) that is available to order right now? (Fatherhood, Puppers, normal GC things) Hmmmm, I've got a few pupper decants coming but I did not get a Granite decant and I think I would really enjoy it. I got Wednesday and Pickle.

9/13/17

Are you a gamer? If so, what games are you currently playing and is there any merch for that game you'd love to have?-
If you are a gamer do you have a steam/gamestop/amazon wishlist? I am a fairly serious gamer. I would always love Bioshock Merch or any of the female characters from Overwatch as FunkoPops. I have a Steam wishlist. Right now I'm playing a lot of Overwatch. I have a Switch, PS4, and gaming PC.

Do you eat candy, and if so would Halloween candy be welcome? Specialty candy from local or unusual sources? Chocolate? I prefer higher quality candy vs. cheap drugstore stuff (not being snobby but I'm on a diet so if I'm going to spend points, it's gonna be on the good stuff.) I prefer dark chocolate with different add-ins vs. milk. Hate white chocolate. No thanks to candy corn. But yes, I do love me some Halloween candy.

Do you want Fidget spinners, desk toys, or other frivolous things that you look at and decide you don't need enough to spend $ on but would make you happy to have? A fidget cube would be more my speed.

Would you like to receive a wax tarts burner, incense burner, essential oils diffuser, or Halloweenie themed candle holders?
