22,August Tea's fall sale starts tomorrow, 20% off everything on the site with code FALL20.  Is there anything you would like to try, my Pumpkin? https://august.la/

 

Yes! I love tea & have not tried this company. Any of these would be lovely to try. Low Country, Passage, Cabaret, Dark Iris, Metropolitan, Black Metallic, Dirty Chai, Leatherbound

 

23.  I grow lots of different herbs and I'm dehydrating loads of them right now, are you possibly interested in: catnip, sage (culinary and/or purple), oregano (Greek and/or purple), rosemary, plantain herb, chives, celery, licorice mint, lovage leaf, mugwort, mint, spearmint, chives, borage leaf, blackberry leaf, raspberry leaf, comfrey, lemon balm, or others? 

Yes please Chives, celery, blackberry leaf, raspberry leaf, Rosemary

 

24.  My peacock is molting his tail feathers, would you like some?  Would love some.  I had some and a kitten stole them all & destroyed them.  My local source of them is no longer with us so I have no way to replace them.

 

25.  I'm learning embroidery. Is there a simple motif or symbol (like a pumpkin, a black cat, flowers, spider web…) you might like hand embroidered?  Would love any of those

 

 

27.  I'm taking a trip to New Orleans, anything you'd like food or souvenir-wise?  Anything you think is fun Halloween wise.  I’m told you can buy jars of darker rouxs there (looks like peanut butter, but is a long toasted roux for cooking) a small jar would be fabulous.

 

28.  Are your booklists linked somewhere, and up to date? There’s an Amazon list linked but here’s some more booky info:

I’m a big fan of Urban Fantasy (please note, this is not paranormal romance). Seanan Mcguire & Kim Harrison.  I’m currently 2 books into a series called Rosie O’Grady’s Paranormal Bar & Grill that I’m really enjoying & would love to get the next books in the series. ( Sex & romance are okay if they make sense, but the ones that are soft core porn with werewolves & etc are not my style)  Give me a mystery or puzzle to solve.

 

I also really love Witchy Historical-ish novels. Louisa Morgan - I’ve read Secret History Of Witches & the Great Witch of Brittany, but would love another of hers.  I’ve read all of the Deborah Harkness novels. Also the Witches of New York.

 

 

29.  Do you have fur kids and would they like treats as well??   I have 5 furkids of the feline flavor  - Mooch, Gytha, Jade, Molly, & the baby (literally) Vimes.  They love random feathers you find in your yard (they smell like birdie, aka lunch) & catnip, & crinkle balls.

 

30.  Do you have any interest in trying my infused moonshine whiskey? I've been thinking of experimenting with autumn spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove) and maybe a chocolate chai. 

 Yes would love them, especially chocolate chai.

 

31.  Any interest in spooky shape wax melts in your favorite candle scents? (What are your favorite candle scents?) I do not have a melter, I use candles

 

32.  How about lotion bars? Yes, I love little ones I can put in a knitting bag.

 

33.  Bird and Blend Tea Co. just came out with their Autumnal tea drop! Anything look good to you? (Also, if you're not a pumpkin-y person I invite you to explore their other offerings, cause everything they do is magical) Check 'em out: https://www.birdandblendtea.us

I adore their pumpkin pie chai & have drunk up my stash of last year,s version.

Mocha chai, violet cream & Pan Galactic gargle blaster also piqued my curiosity. Also, there is one called Toast & Tea that I had a sample of that was delicious. (not sure if it was a seasonal)

 

 

34.  Do you need any BPAL storage?  Bottles?  Imps?  I have a gorgeous rack hubby made me for the bottles.  I’m absolutely crap at storing imps & need an intervention, or at least a way to better store them.  Suggestions are welcome.

 

35.  Does anything catch your eye from my local tea purveyors? https://www.fridaytea.com/ (I hope they make more Womb of Doom soon!)

Pumpkin chai, French cookie, caramel apple blacktea

or https: //perennialtearoom.com/  almond sugar cookie

 

 

36.  Can you use a mug?  What kind/size do you like? I mostly use 16-18 oz mugs.  Most of mine are hand thrown & collected over a long time.  There are also a bunch of nerdy Star Trek ones

 

37.  One of my favorite Etsy chandlers is having a sale, anything catch your feathery fancy?  https://www.etsy.com/shop/TeresaLynnsSimpleLux

 

Any of the autumn ones that do not include smoke/ember notes.  There is a vanilla & black currant one in the discontinued/sale area that would be lovely.

 

38.  NEW AND TIME-SENSITIVE QUESTION!
Does anything appeal from the Nocturne Alchemy Halloween Update? I just placed my order, so I can add-on a treat or two for you until Monday night, September 12th! https://nocturnealchemy.com/collections/limited-collection 

So many this year have musk notes I can’t wear.  Vintage Witch or Conjuring with the Witch might be good

 

 

39.  Quick question - If I were ordering some marmalade or other jammy things, would you be interested in any of the following?  Orange Marmalade, Blood Orange Marmalade, or whole fruit jams in strawberry, peach, current, or triple berry? I make red & pink currant jams, but black currant or Blood orange would be awesome.

 

40.  For decor what general Halloween style is preferred? Traditional, cute spooky, dark and gothic, horror, etc? More descriptive the better!!  Vintage witchy, Crows, Ravens, Owls, Bats, mysterious apothecary jars with ancient labels.  I love art deco & art nouveau Halloween designs.  Not Cute or cartoony.

 

41.  (please read in thread as it's rather long)  Are you interested in anything from Solstice Scents? https://www.solsticescents.com  - Estate Lavender, Estate Vanilla, Lavender Vanilla

 

42.  Do you have a strong preference for whether packages are numbered 1-13, thus curating your experience somewhat, or do you prefer the random draw method where you can follow your whims and open in whatever order you choose?  If you have a plan, please number them.
