....making new friends







...what's your favorite color?  as a kid, it was one of the first questions i'd ask when meeting someone new - it was my way of starting a conversation, making a friend.  it was and still is a quick way to get a sense of how someone sees the world - sunny side or dark side, etc, etc... so, taking into account that we are new to each other here, i thought i'd go first.... and let you know that my answer to that proust-esque question is, was, and always will be...


when i was five years old, and we were moving to our new home, my mom asked - "what color do you want to paint your room?" - it was a silly question even then.  looking back, i realize now, i have never not had a pink bedroom - ever.  my husband, thankfully, cares about things like clean sheets and placement of air conditioning ducts - not colors..  when i decorate my house, any new additions are always assessed from the the (silent) viewpoint of "does that work with pink?"  now, all that being said, i am not a head-to-toe, double-dipped literal devotee - i am more of an all-in-all believer that things are happier, friendlier, sweeter with a touch of pink... and, i ask you, who doesn't want a life that's happier, friendlier and sweeter...?  with that in mind, i offer for your consideration, the humble - pink....








































































so, what is your favorite color?...
