Pleasures
The scent of blooming Jasmine at dusk
Silky lotion on warm, just bathed skin Losing oneself in a book Entanglements The first sip of a fragrant red wine Dr. Pepper Lip Smackers Blackberries that seem to explode with deliciousness in ones mouth Brown Sugar Whipped Cream Evening ablutions That first moment when you close your eyes before sleep |
When everyone gets to reap the benefits of your reward.
Funny posts that are short and to the point. When you can easily say I told you so but instead you say, I am sorry you are going through this. Fat free peach cobbler. With carmel and whipped cream. I know it doesn't exist but ......... Snow melting. Pay raise!! |
They'reeeeee Great!
Tony the Tiger! New perfume Sweet Potatoes The sound of crisp pages turning in a book Being challenged The beautiful pearlescent gray of the sky Singing Donna Summer songs loudly in the car Car Dancing (which I don't do if I'm driving. So please, no need for concern!) The deliciousness of iced coffee. Not only in taste, but in sight (the beauty of the cream and then espresso floating on top). Chiquita Banana stickers (don't tell me you've never played with one or stuck it on your forehead. If you do, I simply won't believe you). |
Smells that always make me smile...
sun tan lotion on warm skin
jasmine & honeysuckle in full bloom fresh cut grass cookies baking in the oven |
soft rays of sunshine
the clean smell of rain buttery pound cake fresh strawberries with whipped cream cool breezes gently swaying the window coverings flickering coconut candles |
Late Friday afternoons.
Angels Vinegar chips Farmers markets Spring festivals When you feel loved That feeling of holding the one you love Passionate kisses after you make sweet love |
A fast close hockey game
The way pigment moves on paper with water Really fine 100% rag hot pressed paper on a big ole block A dark fermented aromatic cigar with a really fine old Bourbon. Listening to music and hearing the movement of the artist's hand on the instrument. The knock of a cellist's fingers esp. in baroque music, sexy as hell. |
Happiness of my family
Laughter of kids Whale watching Learning a new song on the guitar Fingers running through my hair Soft hands caressing my back The smell of a woman's neck |
my kids... they are so much like me sometimes i'm not sure to be scared or proud... ok.. i'm always proud
what family i choose to be around music music and more music candles and incense being a true southern cook... |

Tonight's bits ...
Crisp parchment paper
Presents given 'just because' Birds and their songs Running across individuals who possess old world charm and manners Old buildings and their stories Secret places English gardens The smell of Tuberoses Being still with myself (again, to name just a few) |
The World Around Us
Standing at a fresh mountain stream in Spring - hearing the bubbling of the water as it flows down the rocks and ground surface
The scent of fresh falling rain as the storm is just coming in on the wind Night time lightning shows that fill the sky with gorgeous displays The warmth of sunshine upon my skin The beauty of Spring as everything begins to open, bud, bloom, and burst forth into life again after a time of laying dormant |
Long hugs
Long kisses Puppy kisses Warm blankets Fuzzy socks |
sunrooms with a cozy chair and soft blanket to cozy up in
peaceful mornings with birds chirping, water moving, and trees trying their best to sprout leaves skinny lattes a poem written for and read to me spoken word |
The sound of leaf blowers in the back yard (yard clean up finally!)
The smell of freshly washed clothes going in the dryer Hot cup of coffee with the perfect amount of hazelnut non-dairy creamer Sunshine peaking through the clouds A feeling of overall contentedness |
Tazo Earl Grey tea with cream and sugar.
Homemade Southwestern pinto beans. Passing handwritten notes. Used bookstores. Ferry rides. |
Waking up early to go for a sunrise walk with my 10 year old.
Admiring the dogwoods that are starting to open and taking special note of the white tree entwined in a "hug" with a pink one. Going to a lovely cafe for morning breakfast and laughing, giggling and planning summer vacation. Classical music in the background (Vivaldi.) Working with the kiddo on an "egg drop" entry for competition in two weeks at the Science Olympiad. Finalizing the draft drawing for my art project due in June. Visit to the garden center later (can never have too many summer bulbs.) Katniss~~(so happy I am bouncing!) |
A bakers five ...
The perfect banana for breakfast. Not too green, not too yellow.
Putting on makeup whilst listening to singers and standards (you just have to love Peggy Lee!) Chubby and cheerful little birds on the ledge outside of my window Summer thoughts The smell of brewing coffee A sense of soulful freedom |
The sun is shining
Finally got some answers from my lil trip to the hospital Lazy Sundays Wonderful people in my life Unconditional love Hearing the birds chirping outside my window as the sun shines in |
