The last word on the Color Challenge

I checked the poll several times while it was going, and two contenders were neck in neck the entire time, almost always separated by only one vote.

Vote for a Color Challenge winner

Say hello to the eleven finalists from the past year of Color Challenges (there are only eleven because March and April were merged into one contest).

Another month gone by, another Color Challenge over! Actually, it’s been two months this time. KELLY GREEN was a fun one, and saw 320 photos entered into the pool. Yikes! I love how the challenge is attracting so many participants, but it certainly makes my job of narrowing things down much harder! But narrow it […]

Try not to panic

There’s been a terrible development in my kitchen. The box of Dr. Pepper? It’s empty. I peered inside, felt around with my hand, picked it up and shook it. Confirmed. We are all out of Dr. Pepper.
