How do I add "applications" to my list of favorites in Finder ?
OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
To place an application into the sidebar just drag its icon into the sidebar.

Kappy, thank you for your rapid response. However, I do not wish to add individual applications to the favorites. Rather, I seek to add an applications "folder" (?) similar to the "Desktop", "Documents", "Pictures", etc "folders".
Try Mac Basics: Modify your windows
...You can also modify your Finder window's sidebar preferences.
A. Drag the Applications folder into the Dock.
B. Create a new Applications folder in your Home folder.
C. Create an alias in your Home folder to the real Applications folder.
D. Drag the /Home/Applications folder into the sidebar.
Take your pick.
Thank you, Andy Ball !
