Whiskers on kittens

Spending time with my hubby
Stroking a soft kitty
Watching kids, kitties, or puppies play
Ice cream
The smell of vanilla, roses, citrus, or bread or cakes baking
The smell AND taste of chocolate
Gazing at the red rocks of Sedona
The intense colors of fuchsia and turqouise blue
Looking at a really brightly colored, gorgeous corn or Amazon tree boa
The first cold front of the season (here in Florida) that FINALLY allows a breath of fresh, cool, dry air after the long, hot, rainy season.

That is what came to me right now - I am sure I could come up with lots more!
 
The scent of old-fashioned roses, thunder and lightning storms, huge waves, wierd insects, Merlin resting his head on mine, galloping on horseback, the peeping sounds from baby mice, walking Rosie, being naughty with Pete, hardhouse music in a club with my friends, birdwatching, walking through woodlands, african wild dogs, my snakies strike-feeding, absinthe, puppy breath, my boys - I made those wonderful creatures!

Elle, i find it very interesting how much we have in common! especially that last one...that my boyfriend thinks i'm a freak for!


skinny dipping
Click to expand...

Yep my boyfriend wont let me near his back anymore LOL.

As for skinny dipping, LOVE IT. But I had a horrific experience skinny dipping in Bulgaria which was the result of wayyyy too much tequila. I must have ate half the ocean because I was puking up sand for the next 24 hours...

And food, yeah. MAJOR foodie. We eat out up to 4 times a week. I know, it's awful. But I just love fooood.
 
I just noticed...

I included sights, smells, and tastes - but no sounds!

The sound of rain on the roof while I am going to sleep.
The sound, sight, and feel of fresh air - of a crashing thunderstorm, while I am safe and dry on the lanai.
The sound of my hubby's voice - it is one of the things that first drew me to him when I first met him.
 
I love living in a tent, going to sleep every day and waking up every day to the sounds of the outside.

I love living in a completely foreign culture, figuring out how to do things in a completely different way, trying hard to leave my own cultural constructs "at the door" to understand and be a part of someone else's, and, ultimately, being good at it all.

I love catching things--lizards, chameleons, salamanders, dragonflies, whatever I can safely catch.

I love going car camping and cooking fancy food over a campfire.

I love having fancy-food at-home dinner dates--it's often nicer than going out, takes longer because you're cooking (and drinking while doing it), and is almost always a lot cheaper.
 
Here are a few of my favorite things...

Playing in light rain
Digging my toes in sand
Running my fingers through potting soil
The smell of fire
The warmth of the sun on bare skin
Walking barefoot on cool tile
The smell of fresh cut wood
The sound of waves breaking
Catching a fish
The smell of Night Blooming Jasmine or citrus blooms on the breeze
Girls that smell like fruit
Reading a good mystery
Driving with the top down
Sweet Tea
Blueberry cheesecake
The feel of wood grain
Steak off the grill
Corn on the cob
Listening to a jam band play live
Tequila Sunrises
The quiet of the middle of the night
A good movie
A funny joke
 
Here's mine:

Playing my flute...but playing the clarinet anymore
My dogs
Anytime with my husband...unless its bill paying time
My friends
My students
Concerts with my students...it always makes me sooo proud!
Rock and Roll
Crab Legs
My parents
Jager Bombs
Custard
Desperate housewives, sad isn't it?
Camping
Candles
New World Symphony by Dvorak
Led Zepplin
Nine Inch Nails
Puppy breath
 
I am a family person... I love spending time with my family and will do nearly anything just to be close to them. I also have a big extended family, that I see very often.

I enjoy my animals, too. I especially enjoy sharing my animals with other people.

I like to read and can get lost in a good book for hours.

I love football... the time from Super Bowl to pre-season is very painful for me!!

I enjoy exploring and studying cultures... I like art and theater and learning about what people see when they look at the world and why they do the things they do.
