Red is the New Black

red is probably my favorite color.  i have short lived obsessions with other colors off and on -- like orange or slate blue -- but my default color, my when in doubt, i need to feel good about myself, ooh which color yarn should i buy.. color is red.  a clear bright red with a drop of blue.  it's a color that i'm instinctively drawn to whatever the situation.  it's one of the colors that look best on me.  it was our wedding color.  if i hadn't married someone afraid of anything brighter than eggshell, we'd have a red couch.  (he looks fabulous in red by the way). 

margene and chris have posted pictures of red and pink in their lives ... here are just some of the examples in mine.

a couple of things come to mind when i look at these pictures...1.  i've got a thing for chickens -- i've got more, they just don't happen to be red.  2. i have a lot of red purses/bags.  in fact, i only have brightly colored bags.  i think i own one black bag that i never use.  and 3. i seem to confine my inner pink girl to my feet (hmmm, i don't have red sneakers though, i'll have to remedy that.)

what's red and pink in your world?
