Hello all! I’m creating a tournament to decide the greatest thing in the song “My Favorite Things” from the Sound of Music. I had to stretch some of the phrases out into two entries in order to make a nice even 16. The items are:

1. Raindrops on roses

2. Whiskers on kittens

3. Bright copper kettles

4. Warm woolen mittens

5. Brown paper packages tied up with string

6. Cream colored ponies

7. Warm apple strudels

8. Doorbells

9. Sleigh bells

10. Schnitzel with noodles

11. Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

12. White dresses

13. Blue satin sashes

14. Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

15. Silver white winters

16. That melt into springs (listen I thought this would work the best)

I’m hoping to start the actual tournament this weekend, but we shall see. Thank you for joining!

My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens;

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens;

Brown paper packages tied up with strings;

These are a few of my favorite things.

Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels;

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles;

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings;

These are a few of my favorite things.

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes;

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes;

Silver-white winters that melt into springs;

These are a few of my favorite things.

When the dog bites,

When the bee stings,

When I'm feeling sad,

I simply remember my favorite things,

And then I don't feel so bad.

What Inspires me?

If I have to make a list of the things that inspire me, I will start with good manners. Kindness is the attitude of kings and queens. I love describing beautiful landscapes and pretty people. I like writing very much, although it is probably the hardest thing. I like the sense of power and concentration drawing and painting art gives me. I like being focused and productive. Listening to music is a great source of inspiration. I adore making lists and especially like taking action on them. I love filling in my notebook calendar - it gives me a sense of accomplishment and guides me. It's great being organized and finding the time to doodle a little. I like using everything I own. I love lighting candles and aroma sticks. I have a beautiful icon of the Virgin Mary and little Christ, oh, how I adore Christ! I love being touched and hugged in a firm grip by some people. I wish I knew how their kiss tasted as well. I'm in love with loving!

Alright I’ll be honest I have spread some ill-will regarding the late Tony Bennet’s “My Favourite Things” and I’d just like to say I have since grown and changed my ways.

He was 42 when he sang this song and he sounds like he was 70 his entire life. Honestly what the fuck was the thinking when he came up with this completely candor, bazonkers rhythm with which he sings this song it doesn’t feel quite right but I have learned to love it. I can’t get “when the dog bites… when the bee stings… when I’m feeeeelling sad… I simply remember my favorite thinnggss.. and then I don’t feeel so bad.,, MUSIC!” Like oh my god Mr. Bennett kiss me on the lips you devilish man throwing in that “MUSIC!” in there letting the horns do all the talkin’.

When the dog bites when the bee stings what do you do Tony tell me oh tell me let your sweet syrupy voice carry me away I have tears in my eeys i woulbd have jsut loeve to shake yuor hand. The way he says copper kettles actually gives me a little shiver oh he’s so silly the little LAUGH the little GIGGLE he does when he says “snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes” right between my and nose he giggles so cutely what a nice man I’d pinch him on the cheek!!

I once said I didn’t think he deserved to be on the Spotify Christmas Classics album (that thing’s a joke anyway—I digress), but I take it all back now. RIP Tony Bennett 1926-2023. Wish you could’ve been around this Christmas I would’ve held your hand in the snowy square while you serenade me with your smooth crooning voice. Silver white winters that melt into springs!! Goodnight forever my boy!!!

I'm really happy your request is open. Can you do, how would thorin react to his humen S/o sing a lullaby to his nephews when it is thundering. ("Seen/song: My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music.") Please and thank you. I hope you feel better.

Hello! I hope you enjoy it:

Thunder grumbled in the distance, followed by flickers of lightning crackling across the sky, illuminating everything under a bright purple light for a brief two seconds before the world dimmed again. 

“I think we’ll get a storm tonight,” You voiced, seeing the clouds pool closer to the small cottage. 

“You think?” Dis asked, pausing her dish drying to look out the window above her. 

“Mahal,” She cursed under her breath, “The laundry is outside.”

“Do you need any help?” You called out, to which she shook her head. 

“Check on the boys for me!” She insisted, instead of you joining her. Nodding, despite the fact that she could not see you anymore, you disappeared down the hall. It was quite common for you to frequent the Durin home, being practically another family member to the two young dwarrows and one of Dis’ closest companions. 

“Fili? Kili?” You called out, knocking on their door with a gentle rap of your knuckles on the wood. 

“(Y/n)!” Kili whined out, fear in his voice evident as you entered the bedroom. 

“What’s wrong?” You cooed, seeing the two of them huddled in the same bed together, rather than in their own separate beds. 

Before they could answer you, another rumble from the clouds echoed through the house. It was beginning to rain, you noted as small droplets took their place against the boy’s bedroom window. 

“Scooch over, make room,” You encouraged, kicking off your shoes to get into bed with them. Settling in between the two boys, your heart ached as the two latched onto you, fear coming off them in waves as you soothingly rubbed down their backs. 

“How about a song, hm?” You voiced, but instead of an answer you got fearful shrieks as lightning made the room light up a vibrant lilac. 

“Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,” Your voice drowned out the sound of the rain, the two young boys eyes now solely on you as you sang to them, seeming entranced by your song. 

“Brown paper packages tied up with strings. These are a few of my favorite things!” You booped Kili’s nose, eliciting a giggle from the child. 

“Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels, doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles. Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings; These are a few of my favorite things,” You continued to sing, noticing their fear easing. 

“Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes, snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes! Silver-white winters that melt into springs, these are a few of my favorite things.”

When the thunder began to boom this time around, the two didn’t flinch as hard, but still gave you looks of unease. 

“When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite things! And then I don't feel so bad!” You cooed, rubbing your head against Fili’s who all but relaxed into your form. 

“Are you scared of thunder, (Y/n)?” Fili couldn’t help but ask, causing you to nod vehemently in an answer to him. 

“Absolutely!” The two exchanged looks of confusion. 

“T..Then how come you don’t show it?” Kili asked this time, hand gripping onto your shirt. 

“When I think of thunder, and it makes me feel anxious or scared, I think of all my favorite things,” You explained, giving them a gentle smile. 

“Like fishing!” Fili exclaimed, suddenly excited causing you to laugh. 

“Or bow-making with Uncle!” Kili piped up, wanting to feel included. 

“Exactly!” You sang out in agreement. 

“Whenever you feel scared, just think of things that make you happy. And hold onto those things, hold them dearly.” 

As the two settled down to sleep, you gently peeled them away from you, causing them to hold onto each other. Stifling a laugh, you pressed a kiss to each of their temples before pulling the blanket up over their shoulders. 

Exiting the room, you carefully shut the door so it didn’t make a loud noise to wake the two. Breathing a sigh of relief when it finally shut, you turned to walk down the corridor again only to nearly jump out of your skin. 

“Thorin!” You gasped out, hand flinging over your heart as you leaned against the door. 

“Don’t scare me like that,” You half-heartedly scolded as you pulled yourself off the door. 

He merely chuckled and shook his head, looking at you with a soft expression. 

“You’re great with them,” Thorin murmured, taking in your form before looking into your eyes. 

“Staying for a warm beverage?” He nodded to the kitchen as the two of you began to make your way to the front of the house, making you pause. 

“I should really head back, make sure none of my clothes are out in the rain.” As you spoke, thunder rumbled and the lightning crashed again, illuminating just how harsh the winds were. 

“My mother, if she were here, would hang me if I let you leave in these conditions.” Dis called out, “Stay!”

“Alright, alright, I’ll stay.” 

Little did you know, that every day as your interactions with him and his kin increased, so did his affections. If he has it his way, you’ll be around forever.

“Merry Christmas, my deer listeners! As promised, I’m here to sing for you - every hour, on the hour - until the day is done!

This next request isn’t a Christmas song...but it is a rather cheerful song about favorite things, and I believe that fits the spirit rather well! As such, I’m happy to sing it!

Ahem...
