About Me

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

***I am allergic to chamomile so please do not end me any!****

I am 25. 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 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 have met the Dance Commander and he now recognizes me and this is thrilling! 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.

Favorite Music

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

Favorite Books

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

Things I Would Enjoy

*Anything from my Etsy favorites list or anything like what's on my Etsy favorites list

*I would love to get tiny (less than 1 inch) pinback buttons with cute/cool/interesting designs on them! Nothing Hot Topic themed or buttons with sayings on them please!

*a vintage 1972 Happy Apple toy made by Fisher Price. I would love, love, love if I got one of these!!!

*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.

*Lip balm with peppermint oil in it

*Avon lip conditioner

*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 or any other type of store that is located throughout the US that can be easily located in Wisconsin (stores like Wal-Mart and Target just as examples) 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! Reusable grocery store bags from one of these stores are of particular interest!: Publix, The Food Emporium, Acme Fresh Market, El Super, Food City, Fiesta Mart, Food Fair, Food Giant, Food Land, Food Lion, and Winn-Dixie

*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.

Food Stuffs I Would Like

*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.

*Hot chocolate and tea that are not the common grocery store brands like Nestle, Swiss Miss and Land o Lakes. I love the type of hot cocoas and tea you can only seem to get in craft boutiques and specialty food stores!

*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!

Things I Would Not Prefer

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

*Plain chocolate bars, Kinder chocolate, Lindt chocolate, and chocolate with salt and chiles

*Gum & Marshmallow candy

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

*Country style knick knacks

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

*American dollar store items

Flavors/scents I don't like

*Spearmint

*Irish Cream

*Black licorice

*Artificial versions of: grape, banana, green apple, melon, cinnamon, and raspberry

*I am also not a fan of marzipan or sour things.

My thoughts on tea

If you are interested in sending me tea I am only really interested in getting white or green tea. They have the highest amount of antioxidants and taste the best (to me anyway!) 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. No need to send me decaf tea since green and white tea don't generally have very much caffeine in them anyway. I especially hate chamomile (it makes me get rashes), chai, rooibos tea and any sort of tea with spearmint or licorice type flavor. Not a big herbal tea fan either. 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. Also not a huge fan of recieving Bigelow or Stash tea.

Thank you very much for your package for the WTA that I won in Edibles swappers group. I don't know where it has been traveling all this time, but it's been somewhere for two months before reaching me today. But I'm glad I got it now. :) I can't wait to try the raspberry hot cocoa, it sounds very good! Thank you!
