Have you seen otters holding hands? I die every time

I was so happy it was available because lavender is the best! I actually planned my UN change for a few months before I actually did it so I felt really lucky that it was available so long! It's one of my favorite colors, and flowers. I have so many lavender smelling things because I love the smell and how calming it is. And lavender tea is sooo good. In the spring time I like to make a drink with lavender and green tea and lemonade and it's so refreshing and delicious. And does tea ever reaallyy expire? :P I'm sure it stops being as good/fresh but not too bad unless it's years past expired haha. Ahhh it makes me happy you thought of me to ping though!! I would love to talk more <3

I kinda enjoyed Eragon LOL. Yeah it sucked, but whatever :D I haven't read the books though. I need to make time to read... I'm so bad about that!

Dude, you're amazing. How do you always come up with such awesome topics? XD ilu. <3

Ahh, thank you for thinking of me! ^_^ I've really enjoyed the chats I've had lately getting to know you and a couple of others a bit better ( (I know we've spoken a bit before but not as much as now, right?) ). :) I've really enjoyed our conversations. Here's hoping we continue chatting through the new year!

I'm so sorry, I totally bailed on our conversation a while ago! I do that a lot tbh. >.< It was really nice meeting you and chatting about sci-fi things though. ^_^ I'd love to continue our chats sometime!

I think you guys are cool and nice and I practically always give your HAs a like when I see them but I'm shy so idk what to say. Hi! :)

I'm always shy around you and feel like I only ever complain by posting bug-related things (heh) but anyway I think you're awesome and your HAs are always fantastic! C: Plus you're super duper nice. Thank you for your positivity around the site. ^_^ And yes, I was going to get you a Lumi present but then I chickened out. I don't even know. I suck?

I hope so too. 😊 Thank you for making the effort and helping make Lumi a wonderful time of the year. :D

Awh thank you!! I think you're cool too, and don't worry about the Lumi presents, I don't expect them from anyone c:

I'm really glad you like my HAs!! I didn't put much effort into my current one, but often I'll spend a lot of time and effort making them and so it makes me really happy when I get compliments on them. Making HAs is a good way to de-stress for me.

I'm glad you said hello. If you wanna talk more feel free to leave a comment :)

What an awesome topic!

thanks for the mention and for the comment. I admit that I almost always enjoy seeing your HAs too, and give them likes. Hello :) I've always wondered how you came up with your username.

I also appreciate you, and others who keep the lifelike dolls thread going (and usually all your very original HAs too). Hello, and I hope you don't mind the ping and a friendly wave.

oh my gosh, I managed to spell it without having to copy/paste it! as to the flimsy fabrics I am always willing to share or loan to friendssighsI have never met a Canadian I haven't liked. Quebec is beautiful are you still there?

The Birria! By golly I had totally forgotten about it, I still haven't made it yet lol when I cook, its either Italian or French or Arabic

The family photo made me smile, the cat your husband was holding looked like he was threatening dire consequences for the outrage (villainous voice) You shall pay, Photographer! I will dance in your skin..."

good luck in the draw everyone ^^

ah well i guess the movie would probably be heaps better if you haven't read the books first! i just have a thing against adaptations because i've seen so many bad ones :( i just want them to get it right, and it frustrates me when it's not the same as the book lol! i think i have to learn to enjoy them for what they are. it's been ages since i've read an actual book as well D: since i upgraded to a smartphone about a year ago (ha yeah bit behind the eight ball on that one lol!) i waste time checking all my apps instead of reading (coughand sleepingcough) XD

Congrats to all the winners!

Thank you!! Thank you for hosting this event and for such a great idea. I came out of my comfort zone to ping someone that i hope to chat with more. c: /hug

congrats winners! :)

Wow, those replies were quicker than I expected. x) Guess I should've checked the deadline and pinged people earlier!

<3 You as well! I really enjoyed just finding small things to chat about in the midst of those really really fast Lumi topics. x) It was fun!

Pshh, the issue was that I chickened out, not that they were expected. :P I honestly just got tongue-tied at the chemist's. Badly. And I go there all the time!

Still looking good, even if it didn't take you much effort! I haven't been making as many HAs as I'd like over the last couple of years. I hope to change that this year.

Will do! c:

Aww, thanks for liking my HAs as well! XD Honestly I just made it up! I think I was trying to find a UN that didn't sound like my name. x) I'm kinda obsessed with names (well, I was) so I checked my names page (it's linked on my profile if you want to look) for things I wanted it to sound like and then just googled names until I was sure it was fairly original. And there it is! How did you come up with yours? :) I really enjoy being part of the lifelike dolls thread too. x) It's nice seeing everyone gradually get the dolls they need!

oh thank you so much tori!!! * u *

Congrats to all the winners!

ahhh i wasn't expecting this at all!! thank you so much!! q v q

Nice things .... Well it never ceases to astound me that people come to Tahoe, and are surprised by how cold it gets at 7000 feet in the mountains in the Winter. I've gotten into the habit of picking up a bunch of extra hats and mittens at the off-season sales every spring and hand them out to folks who arrive unprepared, especially ones with little kids.

I have and will continue to share my free shop hauls with those that have the items on their wl

Yea!!! I know this guy really loves otter so I'm gonna give to him many cute little otters ^.……^
