Day 5 - Blue

Some blueberries on a square blue dish.

Another square, a beautiful ceramic tile that hangs on my wall.

Day 1 - Orange

I thought I would give myself a little assignment. Over the next 7 days I'm going to try to see what we've got going on in our world that fits in with a particular color.

Today was easy because we got these beautiful oranges yesterday. I'm seeing nicer fruit at the grocery stores now which is a good sign Spring is here even if it did snow yesterday.

One of my favorite cook books is orange.

Another gift from far away, a friend brought me this lovely shirt all the way from India. I love the color and the paisley detail. I'm starting to sound like a broken record but I'm going to need SPRING WEATHER TO ARRIVE in order to wear it!

The orange passie we still need at nap time. Humm still working on that.

Auntie Octopus and Uncle Celery

When I started designing cards I did about 30 or 40 designs and I thought, hummm, will I be able to come up with a continuous supply of new and fresh ideas, over and over again? The answer is yes, but it's not me who's doing it, it's little G. Lately she's been obsessing about Aunties. She's lucky enough to have Auntie Helen, Sarah, Kathy and CoCo. We've got some others we call auntie too, ya know, the people in our lives that love her like a real auntie. I think it gets a little confusing because all week she's been jabbering about Auntie Eggplant, Uncle Celery, Auntie Tomato and Uncle Chicken. I love nothing more than slapping two eyes and a semi-smile on an inanimate object. I've never thought of them as family, but hey, what the heck!

Some cards that are smiling and a hug for Auntie Carrot and then a little bit of cooking.
