Aine: offerings and corrispondences?

Two years ago I went through a collecting-fairy-statues-spree -I'm always been drawn to that folklore sincerey- which extended to compulsively buying books on fairies and lasted until I got a peculiar statue of a slender, femine fairy sitting on the moon, with green eyes and long flowing brown locks. I had collected of better looking ones, but this one seemed to exercise a strange fascination on me. I always ended up touching it and keeping it in my hands whenever I was anxious...kinda like when I was kid and I would keepclose a little statue of the Virgin whenever I was scared of being home alone. I also ended up laying on its feet a little silver horse. I knew nothing of Aine then.
I never connected with the Celtic pantheon much, and over time it was Hekate that came to me as my patron...yet I found that since first reading of Aine, my interest and desire to whorship Her only grew. Until I found myself portraying Her and realizing that my work resembled a bit to the last statue I had collected. Since then I was kinda fixated on making a shrine for Her.

So I wondered, if someone here has a relationship with Her could you tell me what She likes as offering?

Foods, scent and songs you associate with Her would be also greatly valued sugestions!

I don't have a strong relation with Aine, but I would offer her some milk (symbol of fertility, feminity) or spring water (associated with intuition, healing...), and flowers.

I would recommand Michelle Skye's book Goddess Alive! you can see excerpts on google books : see p 97 the chapter on Aine
