ysabetwordsmithKeeping track of stuff I like or want is easier if I make a place for it through the year, rather than trying to do it at the last minute. This worked great in the past, so I'm continuing the practice. See my wishlists from 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020.
BOOKS
Black Dogs Part 2: The Mountain of Iron is an anthropomorphic novel. I loved the first one.
Try to Feel It My Way by Suzette Haden Elgin. A handbook for touch-dominant people and those around them.
Hippie Food: How Back-to-the-Landers, Longhairs, and Revolutionaries Changed the Way We Eat Hardcover by Jonathan Kauffman. The history of my cultural cuisine. :D
How to Survive Anything: A Visual Guide to Laughing in the Face of Adversity (Lonely Planet) Hardcover – Illustrated, January 1, 2022 by Lonely Planet (Author)
The Invisible Orientation: An Introduction to Asexuality * Next Generation Indie Book Awards Winner in LGBT * Paperback – October 13, 2015 by Julie Sondra Decker
This seems like a useful addition to my gender studies shelf.
ROAR Volume 8 Paperback – June 30, 2017 by Madison Keller
An anthology of anthropomorphic fiction.
Climbing Lightly Through Forests: A Poetry Anthology Honoring Ursula K. Le Guin Paperback – January 15, 2021 by R. B. Lemberg

The Queen's Weapons (Black Jewels) Hardcover – March 9, 2021 by Anne Bishop

Tinker (1) (Elfhome) Paperback by Wen Spencer
Science fantasy by a favorite author.
A mushroom cookbook: see list of options.
New Native Kitchen by Freddie Bitsoie.
Native / Modern American fusion cuisine.
Steel & Thunder Paperback – April 1, 2021 by Dominic N Ashen
Queer orc fantasy. <3
CLOTHES
"Do it do it do it" t-shirt of Luci on red, size Large.
Looney Labs has a T-shirt page. I am most enamored of theTime Repair Agency shirt on purple, size Large. (They have an extensive size list if you need that.) Because this is as close as I've found to a shirt about trying to avert all the disasters I see coming that nobody ever seems to listen to.
T-shirts from The Mountain, size Large:
Moon Tree
Find 11 Owls
Star Forming Region
Dark Sky clothes, must return later to specify favorites.
FOOD
WholeFruit Chocolate -- made with the entire pod and no added sugar. Higher in fiber and protein, lower in sugar, but tastes pretty much the same as conventional chocolate. I so want to try this.
Huckleberry Taffy from Shadow River
Actually there are a bunch of different things on that site that made me squee. When I have more time, I'll sort through the clusters of similar items to pick favorites.
Fruits of the Forest syrup
Comes in various flavors, something my partner Doug recommended.
(These are from Allrecipes Oct/Nov 2021)
Hickory Syrup original flavor from Falling Bark Farm
Vena's Fizz House
-- Vena's Maine Pine Syrup
-- Itty Bitters Bundle Wanderer
-- Itty Bitters (omit Coffee, but I'd try any of the others; of those not in the Wanderer I'm most interested in Garam Masala)
-- Blood Orange, Fiery Ginger, and Kola syrups are worth a thought
New Leaf Tree Syrups
Pure American Beech syrup
or
Sample box of maple beech, maple walnut, tangy birch, sweet birch
OTHER
Pocket microscope. This version is small and lightweight, similar to one I had many years ago.
Eggcrate foam chair back cushion. Possibly a neck pillow turned sideways would work, or a seat cushion.
ColorADD UNO
The classic UNO with ColorADD symbols on flat cards, usable by colorblind people.
Silver magnifying pendant
A small magnifying glass on a chain.
Technically not a gift, but a very useful household supply:
Soft twist-tie roll
It's flexible, padded wire for fastening things, and you cut off however much you need at a time.
