My cats, my birds, literature and literacy, education, reading, writing, Too Many Craft things (sewing, quilting, wood burning, painting, crochet, beadwork, knitting, cross stitch, glass etching, etc, etc, etc), celebrating the completion of my Masters' degree and trying to get 9th graders enthusiastic about reading ... or at least trying to get them to not look like they're going to cry when someone tells them they have to read a book.

BPAL
Favorite Scents
I love florals, many-many fruits (though not all), spices, honey, most herbs especially mint and eucalpytus and ... generally most things. :)
I'm allergic to tobacco, civet or smoky kinds of scents and I've noticed that I'm having allergic reactions to the BPAL oils with wine notes so there seems to be something there that I'm allergic to. :( I'm also allergic to patchouli, amber and sandalwood in large amounts (though small amounts is absolutely lovely).
This is just a list of the BPAL that I don't think I'd ever turn down more of -- there are a lot of others that I like enough to mildly hoard:
