I’ve been dreaming of a yellow apple. Yes, I dream of apples 🙂
The Coldplay song “Yellow” is one of my favorites. Chris Martin, the lead vocalist for the band has explained of the song: “‘Yellow’ refers to the mood of the band. Brightness and hope and devotion.” How and when did yellow become associated with cowardice? It’s just wrong that such a cheerful and delightful hue have anything negative about it. Today’s piece is “It’s Called Yellow.”
Here’s to calling yellow as it should be – bright and hopeful! Have a yellow day!
Until tomorrow.

Love your yellow apple. As you well know, the Golden Delicious is one of my favorites; a touch of pear in taste and appearance. One of our favorite tunes from a while back was “I’m just mad about Saffron” which dances into my mind every time I use the spice; love the way those little crocus parts (the stamen right?) go from orange to a flush of yellow in rice or soups. Glad a pinch works so well as saffron is about as dear a spice as one can find. I’m with you…..let yellow brighten your day from a glowing sunrise to a vibrant sunset.
I love my Dad! Isn’t he amazing! xox
