Guesses for new set:
61. a
62. I was going to say chickens, but that is a flock, so then other laughing animals, and hyenas supposedly make a laughing/cackling noise, so hyena.

65. romance
66. no idea - 3
67. Oh, I just read this the other day, but may not be able to come up with it - wait! saffron?
