UPDATE: The winner is…Courtney Kinder!

I didn’t put much thought into today’s post. I opened my favorite stock photo site, saw that they had a category called “Pantone Color of the Year for 2024,” and skimmed through all these lovely photos of peach-colored things. I found a blossom I love and decided that was enough work. It’s pretty. You’ll like it. And who can complain about a pretty, neutral peach, huh? Sometimes, their colors of the year are a bit out there (I love it when they do that!). It’s fun seeing designers try to make up rooms using the year’s color when it’s something like neon green or eggplant.
Anyway, I’m having a quiet weekend. Next week’s the PET scan so we can determine where the cancer is. I’m hoping I don’t light up like a Christmas tree. That would suck. Even better would be if I disappoint them and I’m a boring little pop of this and that. *crossing my fingers*
In the meantime, I’m working a little, playing some Fishdom on my phone, and napping a lot. Other than abdominal discomfort, I’m feeling pretty good (popping Hydrocodone at night helps a lot!). I’m even getting my daily swims in.
So, back to the contest and the flower… For a chance to win a $5 Amazon gift card, solve the puzzle then tell me your favorite flower and color. Mine is a bright yellow sunflower. They’re so happy looking. Red is my favorite color in all its permutations (magenta to sunset orange).

I love flowers and colors. My ultimate favorite flowers are Tulips & Lilacs. I’m of Dutch descent on one side. So my Opa loved flowers, and I learned from him. My other grandfather did more of vegetables, and purple passionflower.
I have three favorite colors greens, purple and blues. All different shades. I like most colors, but that the artist & gardener in me.

Love flowers but most of all yellow and orange Gladioli. As they remind me of growing up in Texas.

I love Bleeding Hearts… they remind me of my grandmother… she always had a bush of them at her house.
My favorite colors though are blue, green and purple… it depends on my mood.

My favorite color has always been blue.
Flower-wise, I like peonies, dahlias and lilacs. I have magenta peonies that come up every year. My hydrangea is trying to revive itself after a near total massacre last summer. It was a beautiful shade of blue. I know you can control the color with epsom salt or coffee grounds. I love the smell of lilacs. Wish the flowers lasted longer
