I will put all my follow up answers here.

 

Would you like to receive Girl Scout cookies and if so, what kind is your favorite? I do love thin mints, although they are not the best thing for me to eat.

 

Would you like a Gnome amigurumi?  (smol knitted or crocheted gnome) 

-- if so, What gnome colors appeal to you?  (three-four colors please)  

dark tones: blue, purple, green

-- do any of these patterns appeal to you (I pretty much have all of them including the ones for humans but I'm not going to make a colorwork sweater for you, sorry.  I *might* make a hat or mitts if you like grey, blue, and red as shown because I already have that yarn.) I like the ones without legs and with the little cables

 

How about Gnome tea towel(s)? Sure!

 

Would you like a cross stitched gnome picture / ornament? That sounds fun.

 

What's your favorite way to experience Nature?  A hike in the woods, a day lounging on the beach, only as screen savers on your computer? Spending time in my garden or going out to the Michigan woods

 

what kinds of safety and environmental concerns need to be considered for your gnome so they can safely reside at your home? will they live outdoors so they need to be weatherproof (for what kind of weather)? will they be indoors and need to be pet or child-safe? do they need to be very tiny or capable of hanging 

in my garden would be awesome, but an inside one would be fine too.

 

 

How do you feel about zombie or other horror gnomes? No thanks. However, if you find the Godzilla or a Star Trek one, the whimsy level is delightful & would be very cool in my garden.  Why yes, I'm  a happy nerd.

 

Do you need any seeds? If so what varieties might you be interested in? Flowers, veg, herbs.. ?  I always love seeds.  There is room for Veg, herbs, or flowers.

 

Would you like feathers from my Peacock, Gary (short for Gyrados)? Always!  Even the ones that are not eye feathers.

 

if BPAL is one of your treasures, which BPAL would you like the mostest?  (Maybe one that is available right now from BPAL and one Limited Edition/Discontinued?)  All the Lavender!  Frostbite TKO, Lavender Buttercream.  Heading off to check currently available.  Will update shortly.  Ooh the new Sufganiyot that was added late - I believe it's strawberry & cream.

 

 

If you are a tea drinker, which (if any) of these teas tickle yowallpaper.

Oh very much so!  I love finding so many new tea companies.  Not in a particular order Coconut Black, Vanilla Black, Paris Breakfast, London Tea Room.  Loose is fine, I have lots of brewing technology.

 

 

would you like a tiny hand drawn gnome picture? I like some of the other options more, I have so little open walspace.

 

Is homemade vanilla something you might like?  I have a "Mother Jar" that I can decant from.  These beans have been steeping for 2 years in a very nice bourbon. - Well this was my question, so I'm pretty set for vanilla

 

Are there any colors you would prefer your gnome not to have?  I'm not big into pastels or the yellow/pink/warm orangey reds category.  Cool colors in deep tones are my faves.

 

I think there was a question about what thing the gnome holds or is with - my first choice would be a mushroom or toadstool.

 

Do you have a need for cheese knife?  https://ototodesign.com/products/bert-cheese-knife?

 It’s very cute, but I really don’t need it & have no more kitchen tool space.

 

I'll be in Seattle next week- any treat you might enjoy from the PNW?

Coffee? (ground please, I don’t own a grinder)  I have not been to Seattle since 1997, so I don't know anything there these days.

 


I'll be back in Disney World next month- anything you might like from Epcot or Hollywood Studios?   An enamel pin, Hocus Pocus or Marvel. Especially a Jeremy Renner or Benedict Cumberbatch.  No idea what is at Hollywood studios, but I’m a good little nerd so, you  can surprise me.

Would you be interested in a small copper nature totem that could nestle in your garden or amongst your plants? I can do some chasing to create a mushroom or a leaf or a special bug friend.  This would be wonderful.  I love things like this.  I have a couple of “bug on a stick” plant stakes, but no mushrooms or leaves.

 

Would you be interested in a decorative pillow or zippered pouch featuring a gnomely figure?  like this? Not this one.  or a little coin purse? Not this one. or please tell me to make this because oh my gods... OH MY GOSH, IT HAS A BIRD NEST, YES PLEASE THIS IS FREAKING ADORABLE.  I have several bird nests made in different techniques on my living room bookcase.  Perhaps swap out the pink for any form of blue or purple?

 

I have an angora rabbit and she's currently molting. Would you like rabbit fur for spinning, felting, or other crafty uses?  Ooh that would be lovely.  In the spring when I can work outside, I’ll be back continuing to perfect my nuno felting skills.  It would be fun to see how bunny fur works.

 

Do you need any spices? Technically yes, but it’s the basic cinnamon I’m out of, so that will be resolved shortly.  This said, if you have or make some regional blend, I’d love to try it.  Especially if it plays well with tofu & comes with your favorite recipe.

 

Gnome wearables?  Would love a pair of socks, especially if there are mushrooms/toadstools.

 

Haus of Gloi Valentine goodies -   My favorite products of theirs are the bubble scrub & the pumpkin seed lotion.  Of the valentine scents I like the sound of Epicurean, Superfreak, or Come Hither.  The Blackcurrant & champagne butterball sounds like a nice soak with an audio book & some sparkling wine (okay cheap prosecco)

 

Moonalisa Feb drop - If someone were shopping on my behalf, I find myself craving lavenders & vanillas of late.  Lavender Fields, Lavender Shortbread Lavender Love.  From the vanillas Salome's Secret, maybe Amber Vanilla.

 

 

Nocturne Alchemy Valentine drop have loads of musk, but these sound nice to try: Crystalline #2

Encens Vanille
Posiedens Vanilla Cheesecake
Be my valentine '23
 
 
 

What is your favorite animal? 

Otters, Cats of all sizes/species, Owls, Ravens, bats

 

Is there anything you would love from San Diego

Not a clue.
