The Color Red

santa claus. mars. corvettes. fire trucks. geraniums. ladybugs. hot pink. raggedy ann and andy. hearts. valentines. venetian glassbeads. shiraz. malbec. baked clay. holly berries. barns. port side light. sofia's hair. ruby lipstick. ruby slippers. sailor's delight. rose colored glasses. chihuly's poppies. a single red rose...i don't have a favorite color. but i gravitate towards red. all shades of red. i love red food. pizza. pasta. roasted red peppers. beets. pomegranates. radishes. strawberries. rasberries. picante sauce. i'm old enough to wear a red hat, but i don't...i really like hats...just not red ones. i like red shoes. i like red bras. i wear red lipstick. my blackberry cover is red. i have a red boat. i drive a red pick-up truck. red makes me happy. kinda' like yellow makes me happy, only sexier.

Red Valentine Hearts


Because i love the color red, you can imagine that i love Valentine's Day...Valentine's day is all about love...Valentine's Day is all about red! I've been wearing heart jewelry and red shoes and red scarfs all month...First thing this morning I opened the paper to find the Publix grocery store sale flier filled with red hearts...on every page! Rarely do i take the time to read the Publix grocery store sale flier, but today i couldn't help but look at every page because of all the red valentine hearts...Hmmmmmm...a big bag of Hershey Kisses on sale for $3.99...Valentine balloons, red roses, champagne, a heart-shaped cheese cake with strawberries...very nice...very red. I then stopped home for lunch and opened the mailbox only to find amongst the bills and junk mail two lovely red envelopes...oh goody...Valentine cards, in red envelopes...from friends that i love...both with red valentine hearts...much better than getting bills! Red hearts are everywhere i look lately...February magazine covers are decked out in red...Every window along 5th Avenue is decorated in red...card stores in the mall are all in red...why my own home has red towels with hearts on them in the guest bath, and a red heart wreathe on the front gate, and red heart lights strung across the back porch...All my "Red Books" are on the coffee table...I set the table for dinner each night with red heart napkins...
red candles...
I'm enjoying all this red...and all this talk of love...The Red Valentine Heart season just doesn't last long enough for me...
