Favorite Things

I couldn't remember seeing a post like this over here, so I thought I'd start one.


What are a few of your favorite things in relation to each sense? That is, what's your favorite smell, your favorite sound, favorite sensation to touch, favorite taste, and your favorite thing to see?



Smell: Old leather, especially mixed with horse sweat. If you've ever smelled an old, used saddle, or even an old briefcase or cowboy hat, it's a beautiful smell.



Sound: I love the sound of a good boy's choir (look up Libera Sanctus on YouTube *-*). I also love the sound of airplane engines; something I grew up with.



Touch: The feel of old paper, like the pages of an antique book, or an old, weathered map. The feeling of reins gently tugging in my hands is a pretty great feeling, too.



Taste: I love the taste of white chocolate, as well as a perfectly ripe apple. Though perhaps not the both together...



Sight: Well, there are a lot of these, and I imagine there would be for everyone. I love looking at the sky, how's it's different every time you look at it. I could look at a beautiful building or tall-ship all day, studying how it all pieces together, how the light and wind play off of each piece.



How about everyone else?

Ohh this could be fun to think about...

Smell: Lavender or lilac... such a sweet, flowery scent that's not overwhelming

Sound: Tough one... but I do love a good female rocker... gimme a girl who can rock out a beat and have an awesome voice and I'm happy

Touch: I love the feel of my olive green and tan blanket. It's a no-sew blanket, the first one I ever made back in spring 2007. It ended up being the perfect size to cover me up with and has become the one blanket I sleep with and do not share at all. It's soft and warm and fuzzy and it always helps me calm down. (And if anyone knew how terrible my crafting skills were, they'd know why it was even more special to me.)

Taste:
This one's hard...but I'll go with a baked potato smashed out and covered with cheez whiz... so yum



Sight:
Nothing better than a happy toddler or baby smiling and giggling and making faces to see :D
