I love to do private swaps so please PM me if you are interested!

I am 24. I enjoy trying new fruits. I am a master brownie maker and I like to add movies to my Netflix queue. I have a blue star on Ebay. I like vintage cookbooks and going into grocery stores I have never been in before. Its my dream to be in a Publix, Wegman's or Ralph's. I'm Liberal and it makes me happy. I like to drive to strange locations just to say I've been there. I think about what I would do in the event of a zombie apocalypse. My favorite band ever is Electric Six and I missed their last concert and I was devastated, the reason why I missed it is funny now though. I have cool ear cartilage piercings. I have an arch nemesis. I don't think southern WI has enough fried chicken fast food restaurants. I enjoy discussing gin and drinking chartreuse. I dream about Disney World, Noah's Ark water park, tornadoes, and going on a trip and forgetting to bring something important pretty frequently. I get excited about new types of junk food. Glitter is fun and so is considering infinity.

Electric Six, Nine Inch Nails, The Deftones, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Prince, Etc. Etc. Etc.

The Catcher In The Rye by J.D. Salinger, The Pleasure Of My Company by Steve Martin, The Shining by Stephen King, Life Of Pi by Yann Martel, and Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich are my top five favorite books

*I would love to get 1" buttons with cute/cool/interesting designs on them! I have just discovered my new intense preoccupation with them! Ahhh!!! I love them!!! I want to cover the ceiling of my car with buttons!

*PaperBackSwap credits! If you are interested in giving me any please PM me and I'll try to figure out how to do it!

*I am collecting the old choose your own adventure books. I have #15 House of Danger and #52 Ghost Hunter so far so any besides that would be cool.

*Cool handmade owl stuff (or anything else really) even though I am not good at making things myself

*I have also decided that I would like to collect tiny owl figurines!

*Basically anything else that's owl related

*Breakfast food related stuff except for recipes and the foods themselves. For instance, maybe a button with a picture of a stack of pancakes on it.

*Stuff that has food with faces on it

*Bath stuff that isn't bubble bath, lotion, or shower gel (I have too much of that stuff but if its Philosophy or LUSH brand I'd love to have it!)

*Unique vintage and antique cookbooks (not Better Homes and Gardens cook books, I think I almost have the entire collection now! I am not interested in cook books that are part of a series)

*Expired coupons from before 2000

*Reusable grocery bags from grocery stores other than Piggly Wiggly, Hy Vee, Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Cub, Copps, Trig's, Woodman's, Logli's, Pick N Save, and Sentry. In short, if its a grocery store that can be easily located in Wisconsin, I probably already have a bag from it. (I am not near an Albertson's, Festival Foods, or Econofoods though so I would like one of those bags!) I would love a reusable bag from the grocery stores that are only in the South and Northeast! Also, if you can locate a grocery bag with IGA on it prominently I will be very happy!

*Odd things like the stuff out of the Archie McPhee catalog

*Fun surprises, that's pretty open to a lot of things!

*Basically, anything thoughtful that's something you'd want for yourself! As long as you aren't specifically picking out stuff from my dislikes list I will probably like it!

*And I should also add that I like gaudy 60s and 70s patterns and especially the brown, orange, and yellow combinations.

*Unique and delicious candy. I also like other types of potentially delicious food too.

*Exciting variations on American junk food that I can only get from another country. For example, the unique flavors of Kit Kats I got from Japan! No Pocky though please.

*Pear, lime, blueberry, cranberry, and apricot candy is delicious (but not really pear scented things such as pearberry)

*Cherry Blossom Kit Kats

*Frigor chocolate by Nestle. The last time I saw it I was in Switzerland and I would be beyond excited to get this.

*Beverly water. I believe that it comes from Italy and if anybody could locate some for me I would be so grateful!

*Hershey and Nestle chocolate unless it's a unique variation that you can only find outside of the US.

*not into Kinder chocolate so much anymore

*Country style knick knacks

*Elements for making arts and crafts like beads, ribbons, and scraps of fabric and paper- I just don't have any use for such things

*CDs

*Items pertaining to Western religions

*Journals

*Dollar store items

*Gum & Marshmallow candy

*potato chips, dried squid, or anything of that nature

*Non handmade stuffed animals (way too many of those in my attic)

*Watermelon

*Dark Chocolate

*White Chocolate

*Spearmint

*Irish Creme

*Banana

*Cinnamon flavor like the sort of flavoring in Red Hots and cinnamon gum

*Green apple (specifically green though, red apple is fine)

*Black licorice

*Vanilla scented things always seem to smell medicinal to me, but I love real vanilla flavor

*Artificial grape

*Artificial raspberry

*I am also not a fan of really dark chocolate, marzipan, or sour things.

If you are going to send me tea I am only really interested in getting white or green tea. They have the highest amount of antioxidants so I don't see the point of drinking any other type of tea.
I especially like green and white teas that have a floral (like jasmine) or peppermint flavor to them. I especially hate chamomile, chai, rooibos tea and any sort of tea with spearmint, anise or licorice flavor. Some herbal teas are okay if they have nutritional content otherwise, meh.
I'm not a fan of Lipton brand tea because I can get Lipton tea almost anywhere in the world so its not thrilling to receive.
