7. What are your favorite colors? Do you like bags in these colors or choose other colors? I like crisp colors for my own bags, nothing real crazy but for others i love crazy yarn. I dont think there is a color that i dont like. my favs right now are different shades of green.

8. Chocolate: White, Milk, Dark, or not so much?

10. Do you prefer sweet or salty treats? What kinds? dont they go together? i love them both. i just dont like any nuts except peanuts.

11. If you went into Bath and Body Works and could only come out with one item, what would it be and what would it smell like?
I have very little sense of smell. I can only smell a few things, it just so happens that one of the things i can smell is "amber" from bath and body works. I'd get it in a spray or body gel.
