A Green Color Story

When I go to market, I have two theories when I buy. Either it is something I know people would buy and wear all the time, or it is just an impulse, and I think I just have to have that kind of emblem of spontaneous fun in my life. When it comes to the color green, I rarely can pass it up. Especially if it is a kelly green or grass green color - I have to have it. But really, I like all shades. I haven't met a mint, army, or forest hue I didn't like. Okay, so maybe there are some fluorescent ones I can go without, but even then, they evoke memories of my glory days in the 80s wearing paint splash sweatshirts from The Express, and I am tempted to order a few, just for old-times sake.

This fall was finally my season. There was green everywhere. We have green shoes, purses, shirts, sweaters, and dresses. I guess I am hoping that everyone agrees with me. Contrary to what Kermit always said, I think it is easy being green.
