What does it take to send a kindergartener, 3rd grader, and 6th grader back to school? Lots of paper, glue, crayons, and markers. I think I feel a series coming on….. I always loved going back to school. I was one of those geeky kids that always enjoyed going. I always loved getting new school supplies too. There just something about nice clean notebook paper, freshly sharpened pencils, and a new box of crayons!

I know this is a really boring shot, but people keep asking me what color gutters I ended up getting for my house. So for those of you I see online more often than in person, here is what “Cocoa” brown looks like on a down spout. It goes with my brick pretty well.

There’s a huge tropical plant at the top of one of the stairways in the office building where I work. There’s also a really huge skylight above it. For a short time each day the sun shines through the skylight and hits the plant. The sun filters through the leaves and makes them look like they are glowing almost a lime green color. I wonder how many people walk by and never notice how beautiful the plant is in the light.

In case you haven’t noticed, I realy like colorful things. Most most favorite color is purple, but not far behind are red and yellow. I bought some new yellow place mats this week. I thought it would be nice to get a shot of one of my red wine glasses with the placemat as the background. I have two of the glasses. They were a gift from a Secret Pal exchange I participated in several years ago and I rarely use them. They are red wine glasses made of red crystal. I know they are crystal because you can make them “sing” if you wet your finger and run it around the rim. This was my favorite of the shots I took. I like the contrast of the red on the yellow.

Theme Thursday this week is color. I didn’t have to look far! Last year I bought myself a box of 120 Crayola crayons and a couple of coloring books. They sit on my coffee table, ready for the times I need a little artistic stress relief. Have you tried coloring in a coloring book recently? It can really be fun. And yes, these crayons are MINE….if my granddaughters are here they have to ask before using them.
