fondnesses

Deep soft spots

Fondnesses is the plural of fondness, referring to multiple instances of warm affection or liking.

A person might have various fondnesses—for old books, for rainy afternoons, for a particular style of music: Her fondnesses included gardening, jazz, and strong coffee.

The plural is uncommon, as fondness typically appears as an uncountable quality.
