Rita's Favorite Color Scheme

The predominate color in my life is LEMON YELLOW. And somehow, over the years, I've developed a very stubborn color palette....it almost always includes yellow. And lime green, teal, pink and orange...

I inadvertently have dishes with my colors...and rugs...and I've painted entire rooms...

The clothes I buy often have pink, yellow, lime green....

This is my mountain of t-shirts that I'm getting ready to recycle...into something wonderful...

My new spring tablecloth. Which I bought last year and almost forgot about. When Carrie got it out of the closet, I was stunned by the perfect color scheme...


It completely goes with this favorite sweater I'm getting ready to wear when the weather gets warm...
And it all matches this towel wrap....and just when I'm really beginning to creep myself out...

Carrie opened the linen closet and said to me, "I can't believe you're surprised, Rita. Everything you own goes with your color scheme..."

OH MY GOD. My worst fears are realized....

Obviously -- a woman who routinely decorates her home with yellow, pink and orange and green does NOT WANT to be considered predictable...

But that's where I'm at. Predictable....

  2. I laughed when I read this, 40 years ago when I was in my 20's and slimmer I had a dress that matched your spring sweater. I loved that dress, I don't know why I ever got rid of it except it wouldn't fit me any more. Love your blog!!!! sue from Lake Tapps, WA

  3. Ditto Beckie!
    In junior high, I had a cardigan that would coordinate with your "predictability." Yes...it's true...I have owned "lively" sweaters in the past :-)
