Sight
• chartreuse framed mirrors on a cobalt wall
• a new orchid blossom opening to the world
• ... Burlington Coat Factory... (seen from across a parking lot and a wide road... ugh)
• wordless communication with that special someone


Sound
• air as it thrums through fan blades
• Owl City, Regina Spektor, A Fine Frenzy, Ingrid Michaelson, The Weepies, Missy Higgins, Laura Marling... summer tunes.
• Mannheim Steamroller Christmas music in July
• the voices of my husband, parents, siblings and friends
• rain hitting the roof and falling from the eaves
• crashing waves


Taste
• bread so fresh and moist that the raspberry jelly sinks in like on a hot pancake.
• coffee ice cream, coconut extract, chocolate chips, peanut butter and almonds all together... (also creating the most incredible allergy trigger... and so worth it!)
• it's so close I can almost....


Smell
• my man
• aforementioned fresh bread as it bakes
• clothes fresh out of the dryer
• the delicate fragrance of a freesia plant


Touch
• soapy water, dishes and a wash cloth. all together.
• pencils, sharpies or brushes at home in my hand
• the resistance of computer keys hitting home
• a fluffy marshmallow
