Yeah, but what about the rest of the questions? The ones that didn’t fit into any of the categories? You know I couldn’t leave you hanging!!
What is your favorite fairy tale? -A. Gray Lamb
Harry Potter, hands down! Huge potterhead here. :) I own all 7 books + the extensions (Quidditch Through The Ages, Magical Beasts & Where To Find Them) and all the movies on DVD, respectively. When I was on the last few pages of Book 7, I felt like I was saying goodbye to a very special part of my life. I went through a lot of personal changes and grew tremendously, all while reading these books. I can’t wait to introduce my own kids to the magical world of J.K. Rowling one day.
I have also loved, since I was a little girl, Snow Queen by Hans Christian Andersen. I remember my mother reading it to me before bed and just being mesmerized…
You’re home alone one evening. What movie do you put on to entertain yourself? What snack or meal do you make for yourself? -Jami Lee Rosa
I like beautiful, magical movies that are slightly on the dark side – like Pan’s Labyrinth or Perfume: The Story of a Murderer. However, since I’m home alone, my choice will be something like Blades of Glory or Zoolander. I love ridiculous comedies with a fashion twist!
My favorite movie night munchy is green tea ice cream. I get it at this Chinese supermarket called – naturally – The Great Wall.
What would you say your biggest accomplishment is? The thing you’re most proud of? -Lyndsey
Probably my personal evolution as a human being. Sometimes I look back and think, “Wow, I can’t believe that was me.” I used to be kind of awkward, angsty, unsatisfied with my life… Until one day I decided that I won’t be that way any more. I am proud of the person I am today – thoughtful, compassionate, focused, in control of my emotions. My second proudest moment is launching Lime Crime. :)
What are some unglamorous moments you’ve had? Any jobs that weren’t so great? Like I work in the food industry (Chipotle, which isn’t so bad since I’ve been there and eating their food for a year haha) but food isn’t always pretty and doesn’t feel “glamorous”. -Sunny
Oh, sure! My less-than-unglamorous occupations were: cleaning apartments (where do you think my love for baking soda comes from?!), cat-sitting, dog-walking. I also had a brief stint as a go-go dancer but didn’t like it. Starbucks rejected my application and I’ve boycotted them ever since (actually, I’m just not a coffee-drinker). Other embarrassing moments include running up the down-going escalator in a fit of age & falling at the top, as well as attempting to walk through a glass door. Haha. Ouchie.
How much time do you spend on the website? -Eyeliah
I’m on the blog all the time. Writing articles, reading comments, responding to comments if I have a minute… I usually write in the morning and have a new post out by afternoon. It’s safe to say that Doe Deere Blogazine is my favorite site on the web! ;)
You’re amazing and so down to earth. :)
I live right by that golf course in Sacramento. :)
“I can’t wait to introduce my own kids to the magical world of J.K. Rowling one day.” Ahh! But I thought having kids wasn’t something you were interested in? Did you change your mind? :)
You should also be super proud of your Supernatural EP, Doe!! I still jam out to your tunes when they pop up on my iPod!
And we’ve all had those not-so-fulfilling jobs, he he.
Lovely interview!
haha I run against glass doors all the time.
Deer Doe: What were you like when you were a teenager and what were your teen years like?
-Rachel
I love to read the interviews! Harry Potter is one of my all-time faves as well, and I’m still sad that there won’t be any more books coming out in the near future – although I’m still hoping for prequels :)! The Prince’s Tale has got to be my absolutely fave chapter in the whole series…
I love Harry Potter!
I would introduce it to my future kids, but as of right now I’m not having any, so I’ll have to settle for my sister’s kids.
I LOVE Harry Potter. When the series finished, it was as if my childhood era officially ended. I grew up reading Harry Potter starting in elementary school and finished during high school. I honestly cried when I finished Deathly Hallows.
I love Harry Potter too and another is The Lord of The Rings……
Woot Woot Potter fans!
WOO! I’m a HUGE Potter fan too!! The seventh book was definitely painful to finish….:( And I cried so much when I read it….
Thanks for answering my question!
I love harry potter!
and I love the whole “personal evolution” answer! :]
hooray for Harry Potter!
haha, I love Blades of Glory! “Chas Michael Michaels- an ice devouring sex tornado” LOL
Glad to find another Potterite :)
Thanks for answering my question!!
Yay harry potter =]
and the personal evolution answer was probably the best thing ever. I think its so important realizing when you need to change, and change for the better. You always seem so positive and its an inspiration.
Hi Doo I also LOVE Pan´s Labirynth, it´s so magical and hard at the same time…
wait!
you don’t have Tales of Beedle the Bard?!?!
shame on you!
Harry Potter is what makes my world go round…that and batman? Whose your favorite superhero?
Greenlantern is also cool even though he can be defeated by the color yellow…
I absolutely adore your outfit in this picture! <3
I love Harry Potter Xenia. Speaking of fairy tales… Xenia did you hear that JKR published the book of fairy tales that were mentioned in Book 7? Its called the Tales of Beetle Bard. You should check it out.
I really like your name Xenia. What does it mean?
Thank you for answering my evening alone question. It fascinates me how people relax when they’re by themselves.
I, too, have run up the down-going escalator. That left some painful scrapes on my shins when I fell.
Also, I grew up about 5 blocks from the miniature golf course you’re at in that picture. :)
Yes! Harry Potter fans unite! I cried for about a week after finishing the 7th book, it was actually really traumatic for me!
I feel so much less alone in the world when i know there is some other crazy redhead who runs up the down escalator! I got so close until almost near the top i became stationary running as fast as possible and there was nothing i could do. lol =)
and hey! I thought you didn’t want kids?
Hi Doe!
Your website has saved me! I loved all things make up, magic and fun, but I got lost for a couple years and all colour had gone from my life until stumbling across your blog! Thank you for putting yourself out there! I was wondering where on the site can I post questions for your FAQ page?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
