Rosemary - winter holidays, the sun through pines, vines crawling up an ancient castle, the scent of baking bread, a smile that lights the world, flannel, a shoulder to cry on, your grandma’s blue-and-white china, fountain pens, worn wood floors
Parsley - no makeup, playing in the creek, always laughing, bubble baths, subtle sarcasm, shades of turquoise and green, unique jars and bottles, the friend who will always give you a ride, crocuses blooming through the snow, flirty a-line skirts
Basil - bright warm colors, ice cream on the hottest day of the year, bunches of tulips, music that you can’t help but dance to, balloons, the funniest jokes, fresh orange slices, firework shows, toenail polish, fairy lights, your first nice apartment
Oregano - stained glass, trusted with secrets, disorganized bookshelves, heels on marble tile, orchestral music in minor keys, the stars on a moonless night, velvet, loose leaf tea, jewel tones, cardamom and cloves, indie films, expensive dark chocolate
Sage - wind rippling across the prairie, nights by the fireplace, the advice you needed but maybe didn’t want, apple cider, denim jackets, old-fashioned cursive, sour candy, cameo jewelry, pixie cuts, walking barefoot on sidewalk, singers harmonizing
Mint - the best conversationalist, meadows of wildflowers, tenacious as hell, twinkling skylines, synthpop, lightning and hailstorms, lots of piercings, collects pens, street photography, wrought iron, potted ferns, boundless curiosity, abstract paintings
Cilantro - the breeze off the sea, playful puppies, red sandstone bluffs, gauzy curtains, a windowsill of succulents, pastels, mussed hair, running on the beach, boardgame night, gives amazing hugs, warm towels right out of the dryer, sunrise
