Any food allergies I should know about?
Nope. But I do have some food dislikes: Dark chocolate, raspberries, pineapple.
Is there anything specific you would like?
Yes, chocolate! But I don't like dark chocolate Also, if you can send me at least one reusable bag with the name of your town or city on it, that would be fabulous. (But if you can't swing it, I'll understand.)
Do you like surprises?
Not really. But if you find something you're really absolutely sure I'll love, surprise me with it anyway.
Do you like nuts and if so, what are your favorites?
I love almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts and Brazil nuts the best.
What are some of your favorite snacks?
Milk chocolate with nuts, raw almonds, dried mango, and salty chips.
Do you like scenty things like candles/incense?
No, sorry. I'm very sensitive to scents, and they tend to make me sneeze.
Tea or coffee or both?
Tea, please!
I'll be back later.
Alrighty.

Hi and thank you, thank you, thank you in advance!!!
What do you/would you use your shopping bag for? Mostly for actual shopping, but sometimes for knitting projects.
Are there any features you find particularly useful in a shopping bag (long handles, short handles, pocket, really big, really small)? Long handles are good!
What types of fabrics do you like? Bright colors, pastel colors, neutral colors? Floral, poka dots, stripes, plain, patterned? Hmmm, I like cotton or canvas and any color will be good. I do like florals, stripes and anything patterned.
Do you have any allergies? Yep, I can't eat strawberries (sadly), and anything scented with florals makes me sneeze.
Do you have any food dislikes? I don't like mushrooms or lima beans. Other than that, I'm good.
Do you prefer sweet or savory snacks? Either is great.
Do you cook, or prefer ready made foods? I cook, though some ready-made foods are always welcome. I like to try anything.
Do you often used toiletries? If so, what kinds? Yes, hand, face and body lotions, soaps, lip balm (not sure if that counts as a toiletry)
What are your favorite gifts? Are there certain gifts you always get because everyone knows you love them? Haha, yes, soy candles, chocolate and anything sports- or music-related.
Is there anything specific you would like? No, I am sure whatever I receive will be great!
What things do you wish you could find a good vegan version of? Whether it's food, toiletries, make-up, or anything else. Yarn (some of the acrylic is just nasty, sadly), marshmallows, evaporated milk, peanut butter cups, M&Ms, jelly beans, malted milk balls (lol at my sweet-tooth theme here).

Calling SummerRain!
The Spring Bag Swapper has a few questions for you in preparation of your goodie shopping bag:
Do you cook, or are you more of a ready-made meal person? If you cook, what's your favorite thing to make for dinner?
I cook from scratch pretty much every day, I enjoy cooking. I don't know if I have one favourite... but Indian food is my favourite cuisine.
Are you a tea or coffee person or both?
Both! Although I don't drink black tea, I drink mint and green tea. I've switched to decafe coffee lately, coffee is my preferred drink.
Do you like sweet or savory foods?
Both! I love sweet foods, cakes and chocolates... but I have a serious crisp habit. It's getting a bit embarrassing when I go shopping.
Any food allergies or dislikes?
I'm very mildly allergic to most raw fruits, which only really means I don't eat them raw so it's not likely to be an issue. I'm also allergic to soya milk/yogurt, but not products with soy in (soya based chocolate, tofu, etc are all okay). (My allergy specialist didn't know why.)
What are your favorite shops for food and snacks and for clothing and such?
Anywhere that sells vegan chocolate or lunch is a favourite food shop. I buy most of my clothes second hand online or from charity shops, but my favourite clothes shop is probably Fat Face.
What's your favorite hobby?
Reading. Followed closely by cooking, baking, sewing and knitting.
Are you a candles person?
I like candles, especially scented ones. I don't have loads, I usually just have one on the go at a time, but every time I light it it makes me smile.
Do you use body lotions and other toiletries?
I use face cream, hand cream, shower gel and body scrub regularly. I like a nice smelling body lotion.
What are your favorite snacks?
Crisps! Vegan "milk" chocolates. Cake. Poppadums.
What sort of shopping bag would you prefer fabric/material-wise?
I'm pretty girly/feminine in my dress, lots of my handbags are floral. So anything pretty will go down well.
What sort (if any) of jewelry do you wear?
I wear dangly bead earings, and silver studs. My ears were pierced 8 times but I think at least one has closed up, I usually just wear the bottom ones. I wear necklaces most days, some are plastic and fun, some are silver and delicate.
What's your favorite mode of dress? Comfy? Casual? Jeans and tees? Or are you a fancier dresser?
Um... most days I wear floor length skirts, vest/tshirt tops, and a long or chunky cardigan. Or floaty tops, or chunky jumpers with jeans/velvet trousers. I love knitwear, floral things, pretty things and comfortable things.
When you are going out, what's your must-have/wear accessory?
I think I wear a cardigan most days! I often wear different brades in my hair, so I always have a hair band or two, and a hair grip or two on me.
I may be back with more.
Do you prefer your snacks to be crunchy, chewy or do you like both? Crunchy...I'm definitely the crunchy type
Your very favorite flavor is? Anything with nuts is good....and chocolate...combine the two and it's the heaven
Second favorite? I think it was the chocolate.
Hot and spicy or keep it mellow? Mellow please...though I have started to add little bit of spices but that is still work in progress heh.
Any fur kids? What do they like? Two furry kids (kittens) that are kind of boring in a way that best toys are ones that are found accidently or stolen from me like bottle caps or string of yarn.
Sweet, salty or both? Both are good.
Do you have a favorite color? Blue...in all shades.
And because the Springtime Fairy would like you to enjoy your goodies, do you have any allergies or foods/flavors you absolutely hate? Winegums....anything that falls in same category with what comes to the texture....eeewwww....

CALLING KLS52!What are your favorite colors? It's a toss up between yellow and blue.
What kind of treats do you like: Sweet, sour, salty, crunchy, creamy? Definitely sweet but also salty and crunchy.
Do you like chocolate? I love chocolate!
What about spicy foods, yes or no? Spicy as in hot but I am very sensitive to other spices like cilantro, rosemary, sage, thyme, etc. I'm pretty much a salt/black/cayenne pepper, onion/garlic person.
Do you have any nonhuman children, and if so, what kind? I have four cats.
Do you enjoy scented items, and if so, what kind of scents? I like scented items if they are cinnamon/nutmeg/fruity. No vanilla. I recently purchased a lemon/verbena lotion that is divine.
Do you like to read? If so, what do you enjoy reading? Sadly, not much of a reader. If I do read, it has to be on my kindle and non-fiction. I like animal stories like, The Good Good Pig, Where the Blind Horse Sings.
Are you a writer? Hmmm...I'd have to say no.
Do you like to cook or bake? I love food, cooking and baking.
Are you a spiritual person? Very much so.
Do you have any allergies or dislikes that I should know about? Not really, except for vanilla scented things or the spices I mentioned.
That’s it for the questions. I will await your answers.
Thank you Spring Exchange Fairy!

Calling out sallyomally!!!!!!!!!!

Plasticy seems to work well. My profession requires carrying a lot of "stuff", so large to huge would be fab!
Spicy or mild?
SPICY!!!
Crunchy or chewy?
Yes and yes!
Sweet or savory?
Yes and yes! We like to eat at our house.
Do you like candles? Any scents you are drawn to, any you dislike?
Love candles. I seem to go for scents that smell like things baking (vanilla,hazlenut, biscotti,etc) fruity scents like blueberry, apple, etc. not a huge fan of florals or patchouli or "woodsy" scents.
Jewelry? If so, necklaces? Earrings? Long, short, dangly, studs?
Stopped wearing jewelry when I began working with small children. I was forever losing things, so just decided to give it up.
Soaps, gels, lotions, potions?
Yes! I love anything to use in the bath or shower.
Top 3 favorite colors?
Hmmm... let's see... red, aqua, shades of green.
I know you have fur kids....
A bunch!
Think that is all for now....
Thank you, exchange fairy!

THE SPRING FAIRY IS LOOKING FOR SWAMP DWELLER!
Being in the fairy "business" has many perks-one of them being inside information from a jolly chubby guy who wears a red suit. He tells me you have been a very good girl. Spring Fairy would like to surprise you with some special treats, but first I will need a little information. So, tell me:
Favorite colors?
Collectibles, yes or no?
Hobbies?
Fur children? If so , how many and what kind?
Is there a Mr. Swamp Dweller?
Have you a sweet tooth?
Snacks- do you enjoy mild, wild, or muy calente'?
Scents- candles, soaps, lotions?
Do you enjoy ethnic goodies-snacks, treats, etc..
Are you a coffee or tea kind of gal?
Anything in particular you've been wanting to try, but cannot find in your area?
Things you just don't care for as far as snacks?
That's all for now, my dear. Spring Fairy will be awaiting your reply.
