.as visions of mustard danced in her head?






Have you ever noticed how a color can sometimes sneak up on you? You know, a color you knew was there, but did not seem to get involved in your life very often...and then one day, SLAM, and you realize, I think there is something going on here? Been there. No? Well. I am having that sort of relationship with mustard lately. No, not yellow, mustard, ocher, that sort of hue. Seems to be popping up in pictures, drawings, clothes, all sorts of things that enter my mind and home. Not that I have ever had a thing against mustard, we have just never had a spark, truly, until now.

Is there a color that has you doing a doubletake?

    Aah, I'm a fiend for color and very fickle, so my loves change daily. And I like your ochre or mustard or what have you. Yes, we could most definitely be friends!

    You know, I've never thought of myself as a "mustard person" before, but it is truly striking in these images! You may have converted me...I'm especially loving that piece over the fireplace...unbelievable. I love getting my eyes opened like this!
