Do you wear a watch? If so, what kind/style? I used to, many years ago, but the battery died and I never got around to replacing it... I would wear one again.. I don't like the big bulky ones, so it would have to be a slim feminine looking one

I like all colors!

BPAL is such a scent-ual experience. What are your other tactile, aural, or olfactory pleasures? Scent is a big one of course. I also love water.

However I am on a diet, so it would have to be rather low fat or healthy. I am dying to try some baked goods with lavender! I've heard some good things and it sounds like something I would like. I'm all for trying something new and yummy!
What are your pet's names, and what are they named for?Our bunny is Franny-Mae. He is so named because at first we thought it was a girl... and then he matured into a strapping young lad and we realized he had balls... the name just kinda stuck though, we just call him Fran for short. Or Mr. Pudgy Bunny. My cat is Lilith. It took me a while to come up with the name for her. I wanted something pretty just like her, but also slightly mischievous and simple. Lilith just seemed to fit. We call her Lilla or Lilla-kitten for short
