August Colors Challenge

City Sonnet has a fun photo challenge for each day of the month where you get to share pictures as you play along. Today’s challenge is favorite color and that is a challenge in itself for I love all colors. But I think perhaps a soft creamy yellow is near the top of the list. It’s a happy color and we should always have things around us that make us happy. When I bought my house, the kitchen was a busy multi-color paisley wallpaper. Way too bust for a kitchen, so I repainted it in soft yellow to help calm the room. A kitchen should always be happy and calm because creations of deliciousness can never come from chaos.

Then you can use small accents of brighter colors to add a splash of personality. As I finished writing this post, I realized I used the wreath as a favorite color earlier this year, so I guess yellow is definitely a favorite color.

In closing, I remind you of the color of Kindness. While we think kindness has no color, it has a hue of brightness that we should share wherever we go.

July’s Colors and Letters, Citysonnet

Photo A Day Challenge from Citysonnet looks to be fun during the month of July. Well, a lot of the challenges do but looking over the list, these I can do without having to go far with my camera. Since my month has the potential to be out of control, this one may be an easy one for me to do.

July 1 is FAVORITE COLOR – that is easy – purple.

Purple is Skeeter’s favorite color as well.

And as always, I remind myself and all others the power of being kind. It has lasting power you may not visibly see but the brightness of it shines forever.
