    For me ;
    Taste, sausage and gravy, home made

    Smell, early morning on a mountain lake when it’s covered in fog

    Sight, the view looking out of a small plane at 12K feet when you can see the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean at the same time !!!

    Hearing, the sound of a 50’s Ford big block engine with Cherry Bomb glass packs and I can’t leave out a fully loaded Mack coal truck rolling off a mountain with the Jake Brake singing it’s tune !!!!

    Touch, the wonderful feel/touch of a cuddle partner who is enjoying the cuddle as much as I am

    Oh I love this!

    Taste: Egyptian licorice tea, dark chocolate, cold fruit

    Smell: the ocean, sandalwood and amber

    Sight: an unobscured night sky where the galaxy is easily visible, looking through a telescope and seeing Saturn's rings, visuals from my favorite artists.

    Hearing: rain, snow, dubstep, my dog dreaming

    Touch: soft things. My house is surrounded by blankets, plush fuzzy and furry pillows,

    What a wonderful thread!

    Taste: salty and sweet … dark chocolate and
    Ruffles potato chips, or salted almonds and dark chocolate.

    Smell: fresh coffee, the smell of oncoming rain, freshly cut grass (and weirdly add to the grass some cigarette smoke and you have the smell of fall football)

    Sight: the way the sunlight can dance and make shadows on the mountains when it is a bright day with white cotton candy clouds in the sky, and a glassy calm lake that recedes into the mountain cove and also mirrors the mountain’s reflection.

    Hearing: the rain and thunder of a spring storm, the quiet of a freshly fallen snow, the purr of my cat, the sound of their (niece or nephew) sweet little voice when one of my nieces and nephews calls my name

    Feel: the purr of my cat and the texture of her fur, the respirations of a baby sleeping on my chest

    Grounding is so lovely…
    Taste: mom’s lasagna or Chex mix, yummy popcorn 🍿, peanut butter and chocolate together (ideally in ice cream)

    Smell: forest after a rain, the ocean, so many Essential oils! My favorite right now is Whisper.

    Sight: the night sky 🌌 with unpolluted air, someone I love looking at me with love, the joy of a sunset on the mountains or beach.

    Hearing: singing with loved ones, rain on a tent roof when I’m cozy inside, crickets and frogs on a summer night

    Touch: my fluffy kitties as they snuggle, holding hands especially with someone I care for deeply, and strong, secure hugs or cuddles…

    @RaveHeart , thanks for starting this thread. 💕. and thanks to all who have shared!

    This is a wonderful topic. Well done, @RaveHeart.

    Taste
    The rich umami of a steak so rare it's bleeding, and so tender it fills your whole mouth with flavor almost before you even start chewing.

    Smell
    Lilacs, sweet and intensely floral, almost heady.

    Sight
    The transition between an enclosed area and an open one, from close darkness to soft light opening a wide space.

    Difficult to describe.

    Hearing
    The thrilling fullness of a four-part harmony, every note in place, enhancing the others.

    Touch
    Scratches that almost hurt.

    Smell: petrichor, balsam fir, cooking with lots of garlic and herbs

    Sight: horses galloping, waterfalls, light passing through gemstones

    Hearing: musicgasms, thunderstorms, children laughing

    Touch: hot baths, burying my feet in warm sand, deep tissue massage

    @RaveHeart - love the idea of this thread!

    TOUCH - I am a very tactile person and one of my favorite sensations is holding the leather cover that I put on notebooks. I have a couple of leather covers but this is my favorite…https://www.oberondesign.com/collections/oberon-journals/products/celtic-braid-journal?variant=#322200859-2

    SMELL - I grew up in a farm and I love the smell of fresh cut alfalfa. I also love the smell of fresh baked cookies out of the oven (even though I no longer eat them) and the smell of pine trees and wild flowers when I am out mountain biking.

    SOUND - one of my favorite cuddle spots is about 2’ from a stream that runs through a state park here in Indiana. After a rain, when the water level is up just a bit, the water makes the most incredible sound flowing over some rocks just a few feet from where my cuddle partner and I put our blanket.

    SIGHT - where to begin… Looking down at the earth from 10,000’ during a sky diving jump, watching the sun drop over the ocean in Florida, Zion National Park.

    TASTE - fresh fruit, especially strawberries and watermelon.
