The purple made me do it...

Purple is a color I don't often enjoy.  I know folks who love purple and their wardrobes are purchased accordingly.

I have, however, taken to the color recently.  I can see why purple has been chosen as a color for royalty.  It's rich looking.  It makes a statement and the deeper the hue, the greater the statement...like it's shouting "Look at me!!  I'm rich and powerful!  I'm beautiful!  I'm the queen/king of the castle!"

So, as I sat on my balcony, with my lovely new hanging purple petunias, I couldn't help but yearn for a cup of tea from a Royal Albert tea cup and wanting to dig out a crumpet from the freezer.  Not every color makes me do certain things, I might add.  Just this purple.  Perhaps tomorrow they may get me wearing a fancy hat and white gloves...who knows!  I'll stop though when I feel the urge to wave at the passing traffic as I summon my man, making him call me Your Highness and requesting him to go and purchase me a diamond tiara!:)

Yep, purple can do funny things to a gal!




Enjoy your evening.  The wind is keeping the bugs at bay.  Yay!

Purple is my choice for petunias too. Just wish they would burst into bloom.
