- The scent of rain
- The way puppies smell
- Cotton blankets
- Irish linen
- Pajama pants
- Vodka martinis at brunch
- Driving
- Cooking with gleeful abandon
- Entertaining friends
- Laughing
- Telling stories
- Line-dried laundry
- Classic films
- Rereading great stories
- Classic female jazz vocalists
- Flowers that smell only at night
- The secret language - both spoken and unspoken - that Brian and I have
- Rushing home to see each other - even 19 years later.
And some that I share with edder (from her list): - when the people I love accept me just as I am, especially when I fuck up
- instantly connecting with new people and wondering "why haven't we met before?"
- that first sip of coffee
- a comment from one of my bloggy friends or a newcomer

In response to my long-lost female doppelganger, way prettier and three month older twin sister edder's joy list, I share my own.

I haven't smelled puppy smell in years! I love that smell! My mother said it was form the worm medicine they take. Flowers that bloom at night smell so the pollinators can find them- nature brings me joy, too!
a second change at being a joy bringer. that is just tooo much. Peggy Lee is the best.
Great list DuPree - made me smile.
Cotton blankets: check
Cooking with abandon: check
Laughing: check
etc.
etc.
etc.
Doppelganger indeed. Have a good sleep, my brutha.
Puppy scent *swoon*...
Night scent. That's my absolute favorite. Maybe it wafts in on a little breeze but damn I love it.
I've always been a night person anyhow.
Something else that gives me great joy is when I'm putting together an electronic project and it doesn't go up in smoke when you turn on the power.
