orange

I'm not one of those people who have a favorite color forever.  My bedroom used to be pink when I was growing up.  Then I went through a phase when I wanted nothing to do with pink.  Then I liked blue.  Then it was blue and orange cause those were my school colors.  Then after the boys were born, I felt the need to have some pink again.  I needed some pink to combat all the maleness in the house :)  Then recently I've liked green and yellow, but now it's definitely orange.

An orange flower in a bouquet that a friend brought last week

This pillow that lets me use orange on this red couch that I've tried to replace for a few years now.

This print that I made to sit on the side table for the summer.

This scarf that Amber sent me

(that totally doesn't go with the t-shirt, but we talked about my fashion limitations last week)

These dish towels from Williams-Sonoma.

Never thought I would buy towels there, but they are truly the best.

My new Pioneer Woman cookbook from Amanda.

(It is especially authentic because it actually came from Oklahoma!)

We share a love for her, her stories, her recipes, her photography.

Love that it's orange.

See that green french oven she's holding? 

She was giving away an orange one on her blog a few days ago. 

I was too late to enter.  So sad. 

I really think it would have looked good in my kitchen.

The orange dot painting (of course)

There is even a bucket of orange paint in our bedroom closet waiting to be splashed on the walls of the boys' bathroom.  Amber says she likes to paint bathrooms, so that's going to be her job and I'm just going to enjoy the finished product :)
