Because Orange Is A Rockin' Color
:: I started this toe-up hand knit sock last Tuesday and I finished it last night, time to start the second sock.
:: Orange is an awesome color, my sister's favorite color.
:: My sister turns 30 this weekend! Happy Early Birthday, Sister!!
:: I spent some time on the torch this weekend and I wasn't working with orange, maybe I will today.
:: Looking out the living room window, I think the neighbor's house looks orange today, even though I know it is a dark yellow.
:: I took the kids on a walk to Big Field last Thursday when they were off from school, some orange leaves are still clinging to the trees.
:: It was an Indian summer weekend, weather wise, and I hung the Christmas lights on the house. (Better to do it in nice weather than when your finger's might pop off they are so frozen.)
:: I also toured a studio this weekend that I am considering renting. Lots of positives! (a couple of negatives) It is a tough decision.
:: If I didn't have a million green peppers left from the last of the garden harvest, I would go to the store and buy an orange pepper to make stuffed peppers for dinner tonight. If only I could have left those of ours on the vine a little longer, they woulda turned orange... or red, at least.
:: This is my favorite photo from the walk last week and it was taken in the exact same spot as this photo back in June.
:: There are more photos from our walk in my photostream, if you are so inclined to look.
:: My coffee to creamer ratio is a bit off this morning. The inside of my mouth is feeling sticky sweet.
:: I wish I had a bag of oranges for breakfast today... I would bake the peels in the oven and smell the house up nice.
:: Alas, oranges, I have not, and they wouldn't go with my peppermint mocha creamer anyway.

Mmmm...peppermint mocha creamer!
I LOVE orange! It's my favorite! What a fabulous color, and so much fun to wear. Happy birthday to your sister, and I am glad you had a good weekend!
I'm interested to hear about your potential new studio...sounds fun!
orange is my son's favorite color... has been since he was very small... have fun at the torch - love the sock!
that orange peel idea is a nice one - didn't know that... i like to put mulling spices in water and just simmer it for a while...
orange is such a happy color.
love this sock..
happy birthday to your sister.
I have oranges. Two bags! And that reminds me that I neglected to spirit some oranges out of the house for a snack today.
If you love orange, and twisted wire (I know you do!) you need to pop over to my blog today, Kerry. I made a necklace channeling all my totally twisted skills last night - oops! - early this morning. Wearing it right now and it is called "Hunter's Moon" with loads of orange. I am no longer afraid of this color thanks to you!
Enjoy the day!
