We all live in

a Yellow Submarine? I didn't find a yellow submarine but, as you can likely guess, today's color is yellow. Oddly, my favorite picture is the sugar packets. I was taking pictures on my way to work and didn't think I'd find yellow at work. But when I walked through our meeting room, I saw the yellow sugar packets so had to include them! Although a yellow submarine would have been a lot more interesting...

Look What I Found!

I think it's a feral cat colony. I was driving home and saw a little black and white cat that looked like Pippin. Then I noticed there were other cats and feeding bowls. I couldn't get pictures of the all the cats but it looked like there were at least 6-7.  They are near the freeway but there are a lot of bushes around and it looks like they hide in them. The 2nd picture shows the area where they are. Now I'm going to watch for them everyday. And probably worry. . .

Orange you glad . . .

I couldn't think of a catchy title for the color orange. All that came to mind was the knock-knock joke, "orange you glad I didn't say banana..." Anyway, on to orange. I had an appointment today about 30 minutes from home so I had more opportunity to find orange. It was harder than red! Aside from the obvious of Halloween decorations of course. I did pretty well though. My favorite is the Hagen's Orange Freeze sign. I had to turn around and go back to take that one! The picture with beads is a Halloween bracelet I am working on. Once I get it finished, I'll post another picture.

Seeing Red

I didn't forget about my blog - I've been sick. My doctor decided it was a sinus infection, which I have to admit I thought at first. I've since decided it was the flu and I am lucky to have survived. I'm a bit of a hypochondriac. I went to work today - it's the first day I've been out since last Thursday. I did make a short trip Saturday to pick up a prescription but I don't think that counts. I was barely aware of my surroundings. Anyway, I am finally feeling better and back!

Today I'm going to post pictures of red things. I got this idea from a book I'm reading, A Paris Year: My Day-to-Day Adventures in the Most Romantic City in the World by Janice MacLeod. She mentions a book called Paris in Color by Nichole Robertson, a photographer who picked a different color each day to photograph.

Sadly, I am not in Paris and my surroundings aren't as interesting, but I decided to pick a color and see what I could find at home and on my drive to work. As you likely guessed from the post title, today was red. I'm sad to say I didn't see as much red as I thought I would and it was mostly kind of boring stuff. But it's what I see most days and it was fun. Although I'm probably lucky one of the pictures isn't the red lights of a police car pulling me over! I'll be more careful next time I think. In a couple of days I'll choose another color and try to organize them a little better. I'm pretty tired out now though.

Red roses at mid-left. A little hard to see!
