I'm not talking sex here. I'm thinking pleasures of the senses that we all need to keep the blush on our cheeks. The glide in our stride. The twinkle in our eyes. Here are my favorite juicy pleasures no particular order.
1. Jacuzzi dipping topless with my oldest girlfriends. Hey we're allowed!
2. Lunch at Brennan's in Houston blending in with the monied class. I have no money but that's never stopped me.
3. Letting my husband shampoo my hair. Now that's sensual.
4. Staying in pajamas all day when its raining. Mmmmm nice.
5. Cutting off the heat on a cold night and wrapping up in my electric blanket. Ooooh toasty! Wearing nothing but a smile under that blanket. Toastier!!!
6. Nothing taste as good as getting a massage feel. Yes by a male, preferably hunky. I'm married not dead.
7. Staring at a fireplace for hours sipping tea and thinking. O.K. napping in front of a fireplace and dreaming.
8. Staring at an ocean for hours drinking martinis. Alright too many martinis, nodding off, ocean watching me for hours.
9. Watching cartoons on Saturday morning. Ssssh!
10. Caviar & Stilton cheese on thin wheat crackers washed down with Hawaiian Punch. Oh yeah.
Now what's your juicy little pleasures? C'mon I know you have them.
Sitting outside, sun drenched, so warm and drowsy, listening to the birds, the breeze. Mmmm, lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love it when hubby shampoos my hair. Loved your list!

Sweet post! Dreaming infront of the fireplace sounds so lovely!
ReplyDeleteNikki – inspire nordic
My husband frosted my hair once. That was a long time ago!
ReplyDeleteDebra, you're a wild woman! :) I love fireplaces, listening to birds, watching the wind blow and sipping thick, rich eggnog with nothing in it. Yeah, I like to keep my head on straight!
I also love fireplaces! I also love Pyjama days! Put the two together and add a thunderstorm outside (whilst it's cozy inside) and I'm in juicy heaven!
ReplyDeleteWatching Pikes Peak from our deck in any season, easier now that Spring has arrived in the Rockies, almost. Sitting in my sauna (a special gift for my birthday) listening to music and enjoying being with my husband. And Debra. . .you have given me some great ideas.
ReplyDeleteLoved the list and just add a little glass of bubbly and oh yeah
ReplyDeleteGetting into my PJs after a shower and settling down to watch TV and drink tea til I get sleepy :) And reading. And going out to get lunch in the middle of the work day. And browsing in charity shops and coming home with a great find. Oh, too many to name!
ReplyDeleteEating breakfast in bed on Sundays, wrapped in blankets with the light shining through the window. :)

Toasted cheese sandwiches with so much Velveeta that it oozes out of the bread...don't tell anyone. :D

Thanks to all of you for sharing you pleasures!
#4 and #7 are my favorites. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and following
ReplyDeleteAh***several of those would have made my list too.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'd have to add getting muddy and playing in my flower garden.
Or, like today, finding a new nursery and buying 12 new heirloom tomato plants. Now, don't ask me what I'll be doing with all those tomatoes!!!
At least it's a healthy addiction.
Definitely 4, 7 and 8! Loved the post.
ReplyDeleteLove the first one!
