My Favorite Color is Blue

Blue. My favorite color is blue. I remember the first time I was asked to state my favorite color. I was in first grade, and all the girls said their favorite color was pink, and I said my favorite color was blue. Blue has always been my favorite color. My first set of dishes are blue and white with a silver rim. Blue. Blue ocean, blue sky, blue jeans, blue dishes. Blue. My favorite color has always been blue. The standard answer to the question of what my favorite color is, has always been blue. But someone I use to volunteer with years ago at the Art Institute of Chicago once told me (as her uncle told her) look at the act not the words.

My kitchen is decorated in purple, and I have Le Creuset cookware in lavender and purple that pick up on the various colors from the stain glass (not real) windows. Then there’s the florals. As the character Anthony Bridgerton states to Miss Sharma, “Lilies”. The lily known as ‘Stargazer’ must be my favorite flower since I always have stargazer lilies throughout my home. The stargazer lilies are usually in various tones of pink and are always gorgeous. And then there are the dishes. The various patterns in pink and purple. After I set my table for breakfast on Easter Sunday, I realized my favorite color is pink.
