Yeah, I know, I’m a little slow on this.

1. Whole bean or ground? Either or, but I’ve been bringing it home in bean form lately and getting comfortable with the coffee grinder

2. Fully-loaded or decaf? I definitely take the high-test stuff. No decaf for me!

3. Regular or flavored? Only coffee-flavored coffee, thanks!

4. How do you drink your coffee? I add a good shot of sugar and then enough half-and-half to make it nice and smooth

5. Favorite coffee ever? Probably the coffee I drink while knitting and chatting with friends at Borealis Yarns on Tuesday nights.

6. Are you fussy about your coffee or will any old bean do? I’m not *that* fussy, but I do like a nice dark-roast coffee from Central or South America.

7. Favorite treats to have with your coffee? Chocolate, cookie, or a bagel with cream cheese

8. Anything else about your coffee preferences? Hmm… I guess fair-trade and organic are always good, but not absolutely necessary.

9. Yarn/fiber you love? Wool, especially sock yarn (just about any), Cascade 220, locally-produced stuff. Animal fibers preferred.

10. Yarn/fiber you hate? I cannot stand working with synthetic fibers (other than a small percentage added to natural fibers for strength, like in sock yarns) and I’m not a big fan of cotton.

11. What’s on your needles? A sock (of course), the Peace Shawl from Fiber Trends, and a v-neck pullover for me in Peace Fleece. Plus assorted UFOs, which don’t really count at the moment

12. Favorite colors? Red, orange, green, black

13. Allergies? I can’t have anything with MSG, but otherwise no.

14. Anything you really love, really don’t like, or just need to get off your chest? I can’t deal with coconut, artificial flavors or scents, or styrofoam. My second favorite beverage is water. I love pizza with barbeque sauce, chicken, and pineapple. Umm… Guess that’s it.
