I like:

  • The color orange (my whole kitchen has orange accents), and earth tones (browns, charcoal grey, sage green, rusty or brick reds, heathers).

  • Stylin' vintage fashions of the 1940s and 50s. I saw an exhibit of Soviet functional graphic designs (mostly cloth) a few years back. It was awesome. Art deco is also very cool in my book. I got to stay in a restored art deco hotel in Cincinnati for a work trip once. Who knew there was culture in Ohio? Previously I had experienced the state mostly as a very long stretch of highway.

  • Natural fabrics, textured/patterned papers, lithograph/linoleum/woodblock prints, and photography rock my socks.

  • Socks also rock my socks. Smartwools are the very very best, but the cheap ones with fuzzy animals and the like are nice too - except toe socks. They are an aberration.

  • Blues, bluegrass, folk, punk, angry women with guitars, NPR, community radio.

  • Museums, gardening, rural living (even though I'm in Boston, yes), camping, stars, birds, nature guides, houseplants.

  • Anything Joss Whedon has ever even contemplated doing (Buffy, Serenity, various comics, etc). Battlestar Galactica, Dr Who, British TV.

  • My taste in books is quite broad. I like mysteries, but not thriller/suspense. I love cookbooks, and read them for entertainment, even those ones put out by the ladies' auxiliary in the '70s. Sci/fi and fantasy with well written queer characters makes me happy. And I like natural history (Stephen J Gould and Chet Raymo type stuff), and nonfiction on gardening. I do not like romance, airport novels (John Grisham and the like), self help books, or cutesy collections of empowering sayings, etc.

  • Vintage pyrex (not the clear kind), thrift stores, pre-loved and gently used kitsch.

  • Gnomes.

  • Games (Cribbage, Carcassone, Scrabble, Boggle, Pictionary, Settlers of Catan, any word game).

Allergies:

*Walnuts

*Apples

*Shellfish (not that I really expect anyone to mail me shellfish)

*Lactose intollerant (not allergic to milk, but it gives me a bad stomach ache).
