moonstone and hematite...and silver...
a lot of animals in the animal kingdom--gray squirrels, foxes, wolves, birds, elephants, just to name a few.
African Grey Parrots--isn't he handsome?
I'd prefer to see my elephants in a zoo, thank you very much. I get my car dinged enough in...

onyx!
And secrets, and seductive, and mystery and death.
Black is the night, and quiet, and vampires and forever.
Black is soothing, and scary, and rejuvenating and powerful.
Here is black licorice from Australia. I couldn't find any pictures of licorice that I normally think of that is black...

I know I've said this before, but life isn't fair! This picture was taken this morning...thunderstorms hitting north of us, but it was SUNNY and hot, had a dark cloud for a while sitting overhead because I was watering, but then it went away too.
So then tonight, the sky looked like this. It's...

sensuous fruits like strawberries and cherries...
And red bell peppers, apples, and tomatoes.
Red is for red hot Santa Clauses!
Red is for this kilted warrior, one of many Highland clans that have red in their plaids...
Red hot lovers and vampire red haze...the color of passion and of...

The eyes of the wolf...
Warmth and sunshine. To a dark house, yellow will brighten it. Yellow kitchens are thought to improve appetites. Yellow is meant to lift spirits, to cheer, to enlighten the dark. Here is a yellow sapphire. And yellow squash and bell pepper.
A yellow sunset--isn't it...

a sunset so stunning that if someone were to paint it, it would look too fantastical.
Eggplant, plums, prunes, raisins, grapes, figs, purple asparagus, purple cabbage, purple carrots, purple Belgian endive, purple peppers--and they're healthy for you, too!
Amethyst gems are gorgeous semi-precious...

When I was growing up, fairy tales were the norm. Did you notice how many were written about characters in three? The Three Little Pigs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, The Three Billy Goats Gruff?
It's funny how a fairy tale, legend, mythology, moral tales can influence someone's life. I often...

...feeling blue--down and out, serenity, "once in a blue moon"--rarely.
I think of the sky, the water, lulling, calming when I think of blue.
Blue uniforms represent power. The Blue Angels an expert Navy flying armada.
The darker the color, the colder. Aqua is lighter,...

"A Nat King Cole song of the era proclaimed that at the drive-in“you’ll see more kisses in the car than on the screen,” and often kissing was just the beginning of thefestivities. By the mid-‘50s the adults had caught on and drive-ins were condemned as “passion pits” byAmerica’s clergy...

so many things to me. When I write, I think in colors. So when I think of green, I generally think of verdant forests, lush lawns, spring, rebirth. But I also think of going green, ecology, recycling and having a green thumb. Or unripe fruit. And green beer for St Patrick's Day. But...
