Comment: This was the best journal I ever received in a swap...what fun!! By the way, if you are ever in WV, 30 miles from me is the Transatlantic Lunatic Asylum, the largest cut stone building in the western hemisphere, in Weston, WV..it is now a "tourist trap", reported to be haunted, and they have all sorts of spooky events there!! The building is enormous, made from hand cut stone - one of WV's many odd tourist attractions!! Sounds like you find a bunch in CA as well. Fun getting something mailed from Disneyland...I lived in CA for 2 years in the '60s and never got to Disneyland!
Response: That asylum sounds amazing!! So happy you like the swap and that Disneyland got it there quickly. I had to wrestle with it to get it into the little mailbox on Main St USA haha. Thanks for the nice comment! :)

Comment: Guess what was in my mail today?! Ok, so I LOVE the purse! I feel so honored by the thought you put into it! The teeny, tiny dancing skeleton buttons are my kind of thing and they will end up grooving somewhere in my home! The washi and vellum bag are favorites too! Thanks Des, I love everything!! xo Patty
Response: I tracked it this morning and was very surprised that they found it!! Kinda amazing actually. So happy you love the purse and things -- if you check the purse lining, you may notice some of the skeletons are leapfrogging haha. Thanks for being patient! :D

Comment: Thanks for the silly ventriloquist postcard! I like all the patterns on it... I have always found them (ventriloquists) a little disturbing, truth be told. Any way this was a fun and satisfying swap.
Response: I think the patterns are what drew me to that card too. It was a toss up between that one and a guy riding an ostrich, which was more solid colors. Hopefully it didn't disturb you too much! :)

Comment: Thank you for your recommendation. Unfortunately I tried Partials a while back and didn't like it at all. I can't remember why now. I didn't mark it as "not interested" so I must have tried it before I had that shelf, as I took it off my TBR. Maybe I'll give it a try again sometime, see if I feel different about it now.
Response: I just started a shelf like that too--it's called "nope", haha. :) Handy, that. Well, hope I pick a better one for you next time! I got recommended one on my TBR list, so....

Comment: Hi, Sorry I took so long to rate! I thought I had already done it. Thank you for the nice honest review. I do think people continue to use the words of the generation they grew up in as they get older (but that is just from personal experience. 8-D ) The book is on my "to read" list and I will probably check it out at some point but may not rush since I am not a fan of the romance genre. Happy Reading!
Response: No worries, it's only been a week or so! Glad you liked my review even though I didn't love the book. Maybe you'll need a quick read for a NBRC challenge, haha! :)

Comment: oooh what a fantastic little package of goodies! The tag is, of course, really neat, the Jeb is fantastic and between the both of those it's inspired me to start a swap bulletin board in my art room. I love all the little spiders and bits floating around and the Clockwork Orange postcard and really I am pleased with everything because you hit the nail on the head with every part of it. Thank you so much for doing this swap with me ^-^
Response: :D You must tell me what is going on your swap bulletin board! Just, like, new stuff that comes in so it's up where you can see it? Or..? I'm intrigued! Thank you for inspiring the swap with your "up for grabs" Flickr (that I still need to copy, lol), and for being on my wavelength -- it's easy to send fun stuff to people with a lot in common! :) So happy we happened upon each other.

Well, I do and I took it. :) These swaps that @TallieH is hosting are my first experiments with "bag type" swaps too.
Response: Yay! I'm glad you took the pink out, haha. I got a couple rolls in a pack and have been trying to get rid of them. :) I've always been nervous about the "bag" swaps because I think they might not ever come home! But maybe someday I will get a nice surprise. Thanks for the heart!

Response: So close, haha. :) I always wonder about people's usernames. Mine was something else, but I left for awhile & got reset, didn't realize I could change it & signed 'user2637' on a bunch of ATCs, so I'm sticking with it. Glad you like the tapes. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: AMAZING! I love this PL so much it makes me cry!! The Cooks Illustrated pages were pos-i-tute-ly perfect (now I need to find one of those books for a Hannibal box I'm working on!!) and I loved reading them all and being throughly creeped out, haha. The ATCs you painted of Will and Hannibal?? Soooooo good! I love them to pieces!! The color scheme, the glittery blood spatter, the foodie washi tape--all perfection. There was so much hidden in the pockets for me to look through, it was fun to pull everything out and see what you had included. You put in a lot of work and I appreciate it all! I also liked finding a few of my other fandoms in there--it was a nice surprise! I am so glad I got you as a partner because this is definitely on of my favorite swaps ever from this site!! Thank you so much! xxx
Response: YAY!!! I loved that PL too; I almost didn't want to let it go! I hope the teeth made it through the mail alright and were just creepy enough. It's great to find someone who doesn't think I'm a freak for having plastic teeth, hahaha. So very very thrilled that you love it!! :D :D

Comment: 38 books already ! WAOH !!! I wish I had so much time. Thanks for all your answer, it was interesting to read them.
Response: Well the 38 books was six months' worth, but yeah, I've been reading a lot lately. :)

Comment: That was an interesting set of answers, especially to me. You had some definite dislikes. I don't dislike fantasy at all, I read a lot of Koontz & King and I find those to be dark fantasy. Origins (Leakey) mostly discusses how our surroundings eventually create adaptation in us all to better suit our survival where we live. That's a lot of reading & I applaud you for doing so!!!
Response: The King I've read, I considered to be horror, but I haven't read many of his books. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thanks for sharing your survey; I enjoyed your answers! A few of your answers that I can relate to: I re-read "The Westing Game" not long ago and also enjoyed it; I also named "It" as the longest book I've read (ha); and I, too, have zero interest in "50 Shades of Gray" or anything by Stephanie Meyer (I'm slightly more open to "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings", but I still haven't read either and am not exactly rushing to go do so).
Response: I figure, I'm not that into fantasy & I saw all the movies (I think), so why read HP and LotR? ;);) Thanks for the nice comments and the heart! :)

Comment: I loved reading it. I actually read 'The Origin of Species' from Darwin, being a christian it is really brave I think o:-). You shouldn't be intimidated by it, I think it's easy to read. Allthough most of it is inconsistent with actual facts, there are some great theories on micro-evolution. Nice to see that there are some people who still like science. ^_^ I also am a sci-fi fan. :-p Thank you for sharing this lovely e-mail-swap. :-)
Response: I haven't heard that Origin of the Species is inaccurate; interesting. I'll have to research that. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thanks for your reading list. With Divergent, I agree Tris is annoying. In Insurgent, it's actually discussed, where many people point out she's not a nice person. If you read it, tell me if you liked it, I always check out about 60% through that book. I've also read Matched, which was ok, but not great. The last book in that trilogy is much better than the first, because the first book is like The Hunger Games without the games.
Response: I will probably read them, just because I want to know how the story ends. I think I've only ever stopped reading 1 or 2 books midway, and while these are series, I feel like they were written as though the reader shouldn't take a break.

Comment: Hope you're settling into your new place all right. You still got a lot read this month. I'm so sorry you didn't like A Wrinkle In Time more; I remember loving it back in elementary school. I agree about wanting to find out more about the outside world in Divergent; I wish we could visit all the different factions instead of just following Tris around, but I did like that book too. I couldn't see your spoiler for Matched after highlighting but I liked the book okay. The sequel was NOT my favorite, though, and I gave up on the series at that point. Hope you have a great time reading in September!

Comment: I haven't read Divergent, but the idea of the story sounds interesting, though it is a shame that you say the writing isn't so awesome. That can be very tricky, but for me being hooked onto a character, you said you liked Four, would be a reason to keep going with the series at least for a little bit to see if things improve. Thanks again!
Response: Yeah, it is tricky. I want to yell at the book, haha. Haven't started the next one yet; instead I read another disappointing YA dystopia. Maybe I just don't like YA books...? Heh. Thanks for the heart! :)

Comment: Sorry for late rating, did not realized it was you. Thank you for the Halloween theme collage. While I appreciate the effort, combo of orange and black, would be nice to see mixture of different papers and texture because the only scrapbook paper makes it look well composed and too organized..... heart for the effort.
Response: Thank you for your input. I like things organized. And I used ribbons and a textured paper as well, though these did not make it into every ATC. There's some of the textured paper on the top of both of your ATCs, as well as the side of the one with the spiderweb ribbon, and a tiny bit of orange ribbon in the bottom right of your other ATC.

Comment: I adore Neil Gaiman's books and Stardust was one of my favorites. Definitely check out his other books. John Green has the uncanny ability to make me cry. Looking for Alaska was no exception. I wish I had an e-reader so I could read in bed without keeping my fiancé up. I definitely see how they are helpful. :)
Response: If you have a laptop or netbook, you can get an extension in Firefox called .epub reader and then read those types of files in the browser. More cumbersome than a Nook or iPod, but it could work. :) I'm looking forward to Green's other books. Thanks for the nice rating, my 300th heart!!! :D:D

John Green is such a great writer; I highly recommend all his books and stories! :-) Very cool that you found a new-to-you Adams story as well! I love making discoveries like that. Happy reading!
Response: If I had known the big plot point in LfA, I would not have read it, due to experiencing something similar with my best friend. (trying to avoid spoilers) But it was really good anyway, just hard to read. I'm going to skip another of Green's books due to the synopsis saying something about the se subject. Alas.

Comment: Thank you so much for the great pdf file. I learned so much from it! I'm also vegan, mainly because of health reasons though (I'm not allowed to eat animal products) and I found so much information in your email. Unfortunately the prices here are really different and I don't have a lot of money to buy some of the things (I spend typically 7$ per week on food), but there was still so much to learn from the email. It really shows people that vegan people cook and that it's not anything bad to be vegan :). Would definitely show it to people who annoy me about not being able to cook because I'm vegan.
Response: Thanks for the lovely comment. I'm glad you liked the file! It was fun to make. There's a new vegan group on SB called Vegan Voices, you should join! We mostly just chat on the forum; it's really nice. :)

Is it the illustrated version with Charles Vess? Enemies and Allies sounds fantastic!

Response: Glad it came through. Yeah, food in this country is insane. *shakes head* And most people don't seem to care. Did you know 1 in 3 kids born in the year 2000 will end up with Type II Diabetes (in the US of course), and that generation is the first that has a lower life-expectancy than their parents? Crazy days....

Comment: Had to go digging for your email, it was hidden in spam :( studpid email. I love the Handmaid's Tale, it's one of those books I pick up and read again every few years. It's interesting that you looked into keeping chickens, I've thought of doing the same thing, but I worry the wildlife would get to them :(
Response: I always put "Swap-Bot" in the title, as do others, hoping that it will be noticed easier. Glad you found it! I was worried about wildlife a bit too, but if they are fenced and you make sure to close the coop at night (they will go in on their own), then it should be okay. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thanks for the links! I heard about Laura Nyro from my boomer parents, but they tended to play other singer songwriters around the house so I haven't heard that song before. I agree about the first Dr Who. It's a wonder they were allowed to make any more... ha, I could only watch half of it. So... the soymilk maker sounds GREAT. Have you ever tried making tofu at home? I really want to learn how to do it. Yes, I loved Amelie. I saw it also when it came out. I think about it every time I see references to Luncheon of the Boating Party. I liked Delicatessen too. Have you seen that one? It is by the same director, if I remember correctly.
Response: I thought Delicatessen was pretty good, but it was no Amelie! I haven't made my own tofu yet, but do plan to try to in the future. What I find fun with making soymilk is all the pulp (called okara) that's leftover from the soybeans. It's a great egg replacer, and good for making veggie burgers, but my favorite thing to do it dehydrate it and mix with almonds and nutritional yeast for a parmesan substitute. It's awesome!

Comment: It's true...I am a very happy person. I have to be. I believe it's what is keeping me alive! Oh, I have serious dark moments, and I LOVE "the dark." I tend to lean towards dark art, and I love my dark Goddesses! OMG that video ROCKED! I LOVE him! The ending is EPIC! You have Pan...LOVE!!! I'd love to see it. Yeah, I really enjoyed doing that ATC. Bathory was quite the killer. Oh, true crime books, I think In Cold Blood by Capote is amazing. I love it. There are so many out there, it depends on the style of the writer I think. I like writers that really do their "homework." I want to know the smallest detail. It's the brain that compeltely intrigues me. I want to know why this person's brain allows them to do something, when most of us know it's not right. It was wonderful to meet you too. I look forward to seeing you around Swap-bot as well! BTW...LOVE your "user" name too!
Response: I will see if my library has any Capote; thanks for the suggestion! I used to have a "real" username, but I was off SB for a year (or two?) and they ran some weird thing on the database so the inactive users all got changed to "user####". I didn't notice when I came back and started making ATCs and signing them with user2637. By the time I realized it, there were a lot of ATCs out there, so I decided to keep it. Plus, I like the anonymity of it! :):)

I don't suppose any of your vegan heroes has anything to say on the subject of fish substitutes? I just mention it because my resolve is starting to crack around the edges :p Thanks once again, apologies for the late rate, and I hope this finds you well
Response: I know there are commercial fake-fish products. I found some pretty good ones at Asian markets. Also, I've made fish sticks with pressed tofu cut into long rectangles with a sheet of nori cut to fit on one side, and battered with tempura batter, and fried. They are pretty good. :)

Time consuming but soooooo delicious and rewarding! Also, super jealous of your vegan celebrity encounters, my goodness... Thank you so much for your email <3
Response: I don't mean to make you MORE jealous, but I found a brand new soy milk maker for $25 at a thrift shop!! It's my most favoritest appliance! After making the milk, I take the okara (left over soybean pulp) and dry it out and combine with some stuff to make a parmesan substitute. It's yummy and full of protein. :):)

Comment: Thanks! I shall try the veg Mac-n-cheese recipe.
Response: Cool! Let me know how it comes out. :) It makes a TON. And I'm not sure if the recipe says this, but I recommend putting all the "cheese" ings into a blender for easy and thorough mixing.

She is waiting for her BFF to come over later this week to watch it with her because they're horror movie watching fiends! Thanks again -she loved it, and you are so sweet!! ♥
Response: Yay! I was a bit concerned about the R rating, but I figured she's 17 and a lot of horror is R. So happy that it made her smile. Let me know what she thinks of the movie, k? It's not *great* horror, but more like campy. :):)

Comment: Thank you for the notecard - I enjoyed reading it! The one that sticks out in my mind is #8; I've been watching some good movies and shows lately, getting myself wrapped up in them! I'll ponder the rest of your faves with my cup of tea in the morning. =]
Response: Bad editing/continuity ruins the "fantasy" of shows for me. There was this part in Titanic that snapped me right out of that world. I won't tell you which part because then it's all you'd ever see. :)

Comment: The email didn't go to my inbox, so maybe it went to my spam. (I'm searching!) I read your blog until then and I was very impressed! I'm a vegetarian but I've always wanted to be a vegan. I thought it would be hard for me to bake but seeing how you could subsitute almost everything, I just might have to try this recipe!!!! Thanks so much for joining!!!!
Response: I try to cut and paste the email addresses to make sure i don't do a typo, so maybe it got caught in the spam. Glad you found the link though. :) I do tons of vegan baking. You should search Amazon or your local library for Isa Chandra Moskowitz. She's got the coolest vegan cooking and baking books. :):)
