5. What tea accessories would you like but have never purchases for yourself?
The only tea accessory that I currently have is a tea strainer. So any type of accessory would be great.
6.How do you prefer to be pampered? (examples: mani/pedi, bubble bath, yummy treat, etc). Right now I would settle for some peace and quiet from two small boys. Other than that, a massage is always good. I had one when I was about 8 months pregnant with Nicholas and my back muscles were relaxed for days afterward. But I wouldn't turn down a manicure and a pedicure.
7. If you were a kind of yarn what would you be and why? Superwash wool - Soft, warm, and machine washable. Preferably in the camouflage colorway.
8. If you had to knit/crochet baby booties, a fun fur scarf, or a fair isle sweater, which would you choose and why? I would probably crochet baby booties with some size 10 crochet thread and trim them with beads and ribbon. They look really cute and heirloomy.
I think that I would like scones, cute lil Petits Fours, crustless sandwiches. Really anything yummy would be fine.
11. When buying yarn for a project how do you choose - do you buy the one called for or do you substitute?
It depends on the cost of the yarn. But if I really want to try the yarn then I will find a way to get it. But I have no problem picking a substitute yarn.
12. What do you carry your knitting/crocheting in when on the go?
I have a few small project bags that I have received from other swaps.
15. Favorite childhood birthday party?
Actually, I don't remember many of my childhood birthday parties. But my mom used to bakes all of our cakes herself and one year she made me a cake with Strawberry Shortcake on it.
16. Favorite type of scone and jam?
I like cinnamon scones and my favorite jam is strawberry.
17. If you use candles, what is your favorite scent? Lavender
18. If you could choose 3 people to have 'tea' with, who would they be and why? (famous or not, living or dead).
1- My Great Aunt Joan of Arc, she passed on earlier this year and was always fun to be around. She liked to call herself just one of the girls.
2- My Nana (my mother's mom), my mom was heartbroken when she passed on. She didn't speak a word of english so I would have to learn Spanish to talk to her.
3- My mother, she managed to raise three children on her own and never complained. My folks split when I was 11 years old.
19. You've been invited to a tea party, what 'props' will you wear (formal or casual)? I am more of a casual girl but I would wear a simple summer dress with a large floppy hat to keep the sun out of my eyes.
20. Any allergies/preferences you have or are willing to admit to?
I don't have any allergies but the hubby is allergic to cats. Plus I do not like cigarette smoke.
21. Anything we missed that you want your pal to know? I love ancient Egypt and I still play games on my Playstation 2. The Tomb Raider games are my favorites. I spent 9 1/2 years in the US Navy with 5 years on an aircraft carrier (the USS Harry S Truman).
