It came with a broccoli bit too. They made me laugh out loud!

I worked as a cook at Biaggi's all four years at the U of I (and a cook at Steak 'n Shake three years before that!) and always sort of wanted to make more of a career out of food. But opted for International Studies which I think is a better fit. <BR/><BR/>I think the color words look so great...you could make the stated changes, but I think they're super fun just as they are...Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529250478920225750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16105542.post-87351818756800863892008-03-26T11:22:00.000-05:002008-03-26T11:22:00.000-05:00you are going word crazy!

Otherwise I think you are being too critical. As far as the contrast in the "tile" piece, floors don't usually have high contrast. It is very rich looking and I like it just the way it is.Exuberantcolor/Wanda S Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00064308660138307797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16105542.post-89750888359387944302008-03-22T08:14:00.000-05:002008-03-22T08:14:00.000-05:00Your color words are fantastic!

These all look wonderful and marvelous. I know exactly what you mean about going to an older quilt and finding it so much duller than you remembered. You're not leaving Fruit Basket Upset there at work are you???? You're taking it home, just don't have a good place to display it, right?Tonya Ricuccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778059489713831067noreply@blogger.com
