A present for all 5 senses

This post is part of 20sb's December carnival. One of the post theme instructions was to make a list of 5 items you would like, one for each sense. I couldn't narrow it down to 1, so here are 2 items for each of the 5 senses.

Sight

1. New goggles because my old ones fog up in the pool. Even though I do the spit trick (thanks for teaching that one to me, internet!).2. A lesson in Photoshop so i can make pretty things myself

Touch

1. Love Lettuce face mask from Lush. It's kind $10 for about 2 facials worth but holy cats you guys, this stuff is worth it.
2. A UW hoodie because am I even official a college kid without the gear? This is filed under touch because being cold counts as touch, right? And man oh man do I get chilly in the winter.

Taste

1. A granny smith apple pie with caramel on top. Lin made one at thanksgiving (recipe from Pioneer Woman) and then she made another because of ya!ya!ya! These are delicious.
2. A freezerful of frozen lasagnas and chicken pot pies. That my mom made. Just because I am poor and lazy, doesn't mean I shouldn't eat tasty homemade goodness all the time, you know?

Smell

1. Non scented mousse that is good. I have really good working stuff by Aussie right now but the scent is overwhelming and all non-scented ones I've tried make your hair crusty.

2. Grapefruit scented things from the body shop. I guess I already have the scrub and the body butter but I don't have the hand lotion. Then again I never moisturize my hands. Then again my knuckles are bloody all winter long because I never moisturize. Then again whatever.

Sound

1. Tickets for The Mountain Goats if ever they come to Canada again. This gift must also include a means of transportation from Waterloo to Toronto. Thank you.

2. A good mix tape of new bands. Who doesn't want that?

I love Lush, they are amazing. I've never tried Love Lettuce either, but I am definitely adding it to this years Christmas list :)

I'm convinced Photoshop is pure evil. I have to use it at work and curse it daily.

But I agree - a lesson in it would be nice because you can do some amazing things with it.

i'm good for the mix tape but if you're going to be in TX a while longer, will need your addy.

conversely, i can make your mix tape in mp3, set it up as a playlist in itunes, zip it, and upload it to my website for you to download.

I've never used any Lush products, but Love Lettuce looks incredible!

The lettuce stuff from Lush looks really neat. I just want to stick my hands in it and play with it like a kid.

Goggles - go for a tiny bit of shower gel on some tissue and wipe the inside - loads better than the spit trick!
