DebR is the Wednesday guest blogger at Create a Connection and I'm playing along. This week, she says: We're going to explore our reactions to the world around us, as experienced through the five senses.
1. What are some of your favorite smells? What's a smell that many other people seem to like, but you don't?I love the smell of cinnamon, of apples, of spices of all sorts. The ocean, the air before a storm, oranges when they're being peeled. I love the smell of lilacs and roses, but NOT in perfumes, I do like honeysuckle in both it's natural form and perfumes. I don't know what other people like that I don't...the only thing that comes to mind is I DON'T like the smell of food on my hands, specifically hamburgers or fried foods. YUCK!
2. What are some of your favorite tastes? What's a taste many other people seem to like, but you don't?A better question is what's a taste many other people seem to hate, but you don't LOL! My favorite tastes are fresh watermelon, blue cheese, salty chocolate, vinegar chips, ume paste. I could go on, but I won't.
3. What are some of your favorite textures? What's a texture that many other people seem to like, but you don't?I love the feel of flower petals, so soft! Wolf's fur is pleasing to me, as is Max's. I love soft grass and smooth pebbles. Again...I don't really have an answer to the second question...
4. What are some of your favorite sounds? What's a sound that many other people seem to like, but you don't? Ahhh, rain, I love the sound of rain! Thunder, too, but it scares me at the same time. Led Zeppelin, Alan Rickman's voice, the wind in the trees, chimes. A sound other people seem to like that I don't is the sound of their voices interrupting my movie watching ;-)
5. What are some of your favorite sights? What's a sight that many other people seem to like but you don't?Horses, ocean waves, dark purple lilacs, a field of multi colored flowers, pumpkins are some of my favorite sights. Something I don't like but other people seem too are accidents.
Bonus: If you could greatly enhance just one sense - say for instance see as many colors as a bird, or smell as many distinct scents as a dog - which sense would it be and why? I'd enhance my memory...cause I have a serious case of CRS!!!

Alan Rickman's voice....mmmmmmmm
Oh yeeeeah...how about lying in bed looling at the ocean, listening to Alan Rickman, eating freshly baked apple and cinnamon buns, chocolate and blue cheese for afters, or maybe Alan Rickman for afters......
I'll take Led Zep over Rickman any day.
what about bananas for #3? you like the taste but you won't eat them... hmmm? weirdo =)
I am so not a gawker at an accident. I think it's just terrible.
I did something like this recently and it was great to think of all of the tastes and scents.
My husband has CRS too, lol. Nice! I might play this one.
