TODAY’s RAMBLINGS:
I have to say, of all the colors we’ve been given thus far, none have been more controversal than this week’s Color Challenge: Liver. Liver. I know! I keep reading people saying “ew liver! yuck!” which is all fine and dandy, except I’m a cook real life and I LOVE LIVER! Yes I said it! I like organ meats in general, but liver is fantastic when cooked correctly, plus it’s the main ingredient in one of my favorite dishes, Pate. I thought about doing a pate and posting the recipe along with this week’s picture, but time got away from me and I wasn’t able to do it.

So on to the controversy I mentioned, after looking through a ton of the pics done for the challenge, the colors ranged so much! Luna’s color swatch showed an ashy gray almost. A lot of posts were ashy blacks to dark grays.. symbolizing cooked liver perhaps? Luna’s picture was more of a rusty green/brown, perhaps liver in the raw? When I searched the color liver, I got an explanation about how it’s used to describe a more brown chestnut color in horses and dogs. So my dilemma.. which is really liver, as in which will I use? Using some poetic licence, I went with the uncooked ashy reddish brown color, which is how I see liver. The color reminded me a bit of the new Treaders gift from Maitreya, so I went with it, not because I couldn’t figure out how to really interpret the color (well..sorta), but because it made a pretty cute friggin’ outfit! Plus the skirt (sooo cute!!) has a hint of that fleshy color also so in my mind.. this works. Am I reaching?? Lol, probably, but I got it done and next up is Firebrick!

all over again! Just a kick ass fun song!

Hey, did you ever meet my friend Ian?
He’s a computer hacker.
He helped me erase your Myspace page
and your band’s Myspace page,
and your Facebook page.
Happy networking asshole!

Jeeze how hard was this week’s Color Challenge: Chartreuse!?? I was seriously wracking my brain, searching different stores and marketplace for that perfect blend of limey green yellow that makes up Chartreuse that also had to be bright and fun. Finally I stumbled on this beautiful jacket I picked up from Decoy in 2009! The color isn’t exactly Chartreuse as it’s more green than yellow, but I rolled with it because I was starting to get a headache! Took a quick picture in my skybox, not even bothering to hit my photo studio for a proper set up, lol, I’m getting lazy. Next week’s color is Liver… liver.. as in livers and onions!? I actually like liver as a protein source but I’m weird like that. I wonder if I have anything of that rusty ashy brown color.. um.. time to scour every inch of my inventory again!
