NOTE TO Swap Partners: I always mark the outside of my envelopes with the swap name/title of swap. I prefer that method and unless the swap says to specifically include a swap card, I don't. Please PM if you don't get a swap. There is a post office here that is unusually sketchy. MOST of the time my things make it, but I have had a few go missing. I will always resend so please don't rate me a 1 until you contact me. I had a Christmas card go missing which I would have happily replaced but wasn't rated until months later and now that user is gone, so I can't fix it. My point: Please communicate as I always do with my swap partners. Thanks!

If you are international, food from your country always gets a heart! Even if it's those whole dried fish snackies from Japan ;)

Please don't send me the following for allergic/personal reasons:

Super gorey/death/gross stuff, like hardcore gothic. I like Edward Gorey, but that's fun goth..see what I mean. Addams Family is fine, Ted Bundy, not so much.

Coffee or any "tea" I drink herbal tea only, but it can't include the ingredient, tea in any form, caff or decaff.

Pearberry scents. I can't handle super strong pear scents, I get a migraine.

Western themed things. I like it, but I just can't use it.
