I am going to try to take a break from swapping for awhile. I will probably do a swap here and there and I will also check up on my forum discussion I'm monitoring in We Love Anything to do with Sewing and Quilting until we get to that magic number to give away my prize.

Most of my dislikes revolve around flavors:

Coconut. I've tried and tried to like it. But the smell does make me think of the beach and summer.

Licorice or twizzlers. My husband and daughter both love twizzlers but I think it's like eating plastic.

Watermelon or any kind of melon or cantaloupe. Again, the rest of the family loves it and I suffer through having it around.

.

I love all colors but my bestest ones are: Deep reds and dark pinks, purple, forest greens, yellow for accenting and jewel-tone blues/greens. I've been in a brown mood lately especially paired with pink or purple.

Candy: Reese Peanut Butter Easter Eggs, Jelly Belly beans (especially toasted marshmallow), Peeps (any season), Lindt truffles and chocolate covered peanuts.

Coffee: Absolute favorite is Godiva Pumpkin which is only available in the fall.

Tea: I will try any kind of tea. My favorites are rooibos, chai, peach, vanilla and mango. Adding a new fave: jasmine.

Aroma: Fresh baked bread, just-out-of-the oven snickerdoodle cookies, playdough and Crayola Crayons.

Favorite cities I've been to: New Orleans, Chicago, Washington D.C

Hmmm....I wish for.....

Funky yarn or fiber

Rubber stamps - any kind, new or used. I just like playing with them

Inks or embossing powders.

Anything with a paisley or filigree design on it.

Wire-edged ribbon for making flowers.

Fabric paints and markers.

Silk/satin scrap fabrics for crazy-quilting

Unique beads

A clone to help me finish everything.
