I don't know what the word is ... tactile maybe ... sensual.... Anyway three things you love to see that awakens the sences.
Rich, highly polished mahoganay, I want to lie down on it and do angels. MMMMM A glass of cherry koolaid, that color in the glass makes me sigh, gorgeous. Cartoons that are rounded, don't know how to explain that one, not like the simpsons with all it's angularity (is that a word?) but roundy, brightly colored cartoons.

The smell of fresh brewed coffee. The sounds of sizzling bacon or a crackling fire. A beautiful bird perched on the windowsill. A warm hug from my kids or DH. My dog nuzzling my hand to get my attention.

My purring cat lying on my head at night with her arm stretched out over my neck The middle of the woods on a hike when no one's around... Listening to and/or watching violins being played... The feeling of floating in rolling waves (swimming/boat/anything)... the smell of Christmas trees, the smell of fire,... I could go on!

The scent of a great flower, like a rose, or lilacs.
Walking through a wooded area in the fall, & hearing the crunch of fallen leaves under your feet.
Toasting marshmallows with the kids over an open fire.
(I'm going to add one more.) The perfect song that matches your mood, whether "top 40" or classical.

(1) Drinkng a cup of freshly brewed coffee of my choice, at home while on my laptop. (2) Sitting and looking at a flower garden when it's in full bloom. (3) Going into the hot tub after a long workout.

The smooth, round feel of a pen looping when I write little things like lists or bills
Falling asleep in a sunlight pool, with our cat doing the same on me or nearby
The clean honey smell of beeswax, especially combined with the humming and movement from a hive

Little baby hands and feet
Clean, cool and crisp sheets
Holding a nice hot cup of coffee
Smell and taste of a man you desire the first time you ever make love, oh god, that is delicious!
I know you said three, but the last one I'll probably never get to enjoy again. dumb marriage. [sad face]

1. Biting into a fresh green pepper and having the zest" spray out. The taste/crunch of arugula is a close second. 2. The gleam of real gold. 3. The feel of cashmere. The first time I tried on a cashmere sweater, it felt like the fur of kittycats. I was hooked. I'm wearing a cashmere sweater now.

The feel of warm dirt under my bare feet when I'm working in my garden The whirring of my sewing machine when I'm working on a project. Black Cherry ice cream with a chocolate shell. I miss this so much since I can't have it anymore. Stupid lactose intolerance.

The river on a calm day. Looks like glass the sound of a ship going by at night the smell of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

1) the smell of the ocean, it will "reset" me down to my soul. 2) the crunch of a crisp apple 3) the feel of new cotton socks, so cozy! and after reading these lists, I'm with rainyday on that last one!

HOW COULD I FORGET THE SMELL OF THE OCEAN. That might just be my biggest fave, scent-wise. I just do not understand how my DH doesn't really care about it... I can't get enough of it.
Another one - being outside in the snow. A foot already on the ground, no cars going by, no noise, just snow falling. Love it.

Hugs from my family/snuggles from my cats.
Crisp, line dried sheets.
A deserted sandy beach on the Atlantic Ocean on a sunny, fall day. Summer beach weather is bad for my pale pink complexion.

The smell of privet and elderberry in bloom - reminds me of the smell of the shrubbery along the small side streets of Old Lyme, Ct. as a young me headed toward the town beach with my family.
The rustle of fallen leaves as you walk through them on a crisp, fall day.
Enjoying a hot cup of coffee and a good book outdoors, again on a crisp, fall day.

Just 3?
The smell and taste of chocolate, especially dark hot chocolate. The smells of citrus and cinnamon are close behind.
Sunset on the beautiful blue water (ocean or large lake) with white sailboats in the view. Blue and white colors
Very soft fabric such as my new fleece sheets or ultra soft blanket.

The smell of my clove and mint goat milk soap.
The sight of the most colorful butterflies I've ever seen in Borneo. The Butterfly Pavillion at the zoo is a decent substitute.
The smell of the jungle. The Lied Jungle at the zoo is as close as I'll get for awhile.

I love long hot showers and warmed bath sheets.
I love the gleam of platinum, it's a bright white and it's just wonderful.
I love gemstones, all of them.
I love flannel sheets and warm down coats.

Sugi-I don't know ìf you get the Travel Channel where you are, but they have a series called Gem Hunt. It is about three jewelers going around the world looking for raw and cut/faceted gem stones and buying them if the price is right and they can make a profit once home. I started watching the show several weeks ago. Gems interest me so the show ìnterests me too. Gem Hunt

The exhaustion of a long difficult hike and the simple joy of a hot shower afterward.
Laying in clean, comfortable bedding and listening to the sound of rain through an open window.
The smell and taste of fresh, decadent turtle cheesecake.

Little kittens snuggling into the crook of your arm because you are the "mommy."
Seeing my daughter happy.
Making my husband break into laugher. He is so handsome when he laughs.
The taste of some kinds of oriental food, especially with hot mustard.
My mother's shortbread cookies from long ago.
The sparkle of diamonds and the gleam of precious metals.
Open water, whether it's gray and frozen, blue in the sun, or has white caps rolling in.

The smell of chlorinated water at the pool, it is such a clean smell and brings me a surge of excitement just like it did when I was little and about to jump in.
Soft kisses on my kids' cheeks or necks, they are still my babies!
Warm sand on a summer afternoon, when the rest of the world may be working, but I'm just lying there, minding my own business, dozing or reading...
And hot coffee, I so look forward to hot coffee greeting me in the morning!
