You gave quite a few hints, so you do not have to post if you don't want to, unless one of the Snooping Santas asks you to

Where my cats are
What are you favorite types of food? Almost everything! But I especially love Italian.
Favorite types of chocolate? Again, not too much preference as far as what I do like, but I only like white chocolate in small quantities.
Favorite scents for candles? Lilac, fruity scents, cocoanut, food scents, etc.
Favorite scents for lotions? Same as candles, except maybe not food scents, I'd be hungry all the time!
If you like to read, do you have a problem with receiving a used book? nope, and I do like to read, but mostly I read cheesey christaian romance novels/novellas
Do you collect anything? Old coins, foreign currency, gem/rocks - in any form, but I now have 5 made into hearts and polished up. When we go on vacation I usually pick up a stone from the area too. So if my SS picked up a rock from their backyard I'd probaly be just tickled pink!
If my SS is outside the US, I would really really really like a few coins from whatever country they live in.

What is your favorite color? Lilac purple, and deep red
If your SS is from overseas, is there anything special you would like them to include? Something related to their country. Coins deffinately, but for ex. last year my SS Was from Canada, she sent me maple syrup, a few coins, and a patch that had Canada pn it and I think the pin did too. Oh, a newspaper (even if I can't read the language it's in) from your town would be cool too!
How would you describe your 'style'? clothing wise, comfortable!, decorating wise, a bit country a bit modernish.
What sort of accessories do you like to wear? Basic jewelry and things, but just in case it comes up, I am allergic to some metals if they touch my skin for a while. Like if the metal were on a bracelet it might break out, but if it were on a purse, I'd be fine.
Would you prefer something edible or something to keep? Either would be fine!
Is there anything that you'd like for your home? Other than a maid...umm....I unno. Cat toys are always good! My kitchen is a chili pepper/tomato theme. I have cranberry color roses in my living room. My bedroom has white accents and purple lilacs.
Do you plan on putting up a Christmas tree this year?
Yes! Last year I got it up and lights put on it....and that was it, courtesy Mooch the climber and Noodles the chewer! But they are older this year, so I'm hoping I will get it all up. Decorating for Christmas is a big prodcution at my house!

Other than that, I guess I'd say just be creative! There isn't much I don't like. Although I guess one thing to mention would be that I am a Christian, so while I wouldn't expect/really want a 'religious' gift, I also wouldn't have much use for some other things. If you need an explanation, please have a snooping santa pm me! I'm not sure I explained that right, I just thought I should say something just in case!

Probably.....

And the second "group" of questions:

More questions!

If your SS is from overseas, is there anything special you would like them to include? Something representative of your country -- particularly, a food item would be wonderful

How would you describe your 'style'? Pretty laid back and casual, generally speaking

What sort of accessories do you like to wear? I LIKE lots of things, but mostly I forget to put on what I have! Don't wear much jewellery. But simple things are most likely to be remembered and used.

Would you prefer something edible or something to keep? Either.

Is there anything that you'd like for your home? My home is such a mess right now, all I'd really want for it is some organization -- hard to ship that!
