peach {you capture}

Peach...oh, you elusive peach.
Peach was a challenge.

Peaches are not in season.
I wasn't about to purchase some terrible store peaches just for a photo op.
So, I looked for "peach" elsewhere.

I looked to the crayon box.


But Crayola calls this apricot.


I looked to my coffee cup, which I love.
I love it because it holds my most favorite warm drink.
I love it because it reminds me of Pooh's honey pot.


I'm thinking this is more salmon pink than peach.

I looked to my yarn stash.



The label calls this color "gerbera daisy."
Really?

Linking up with You Capture.

    1. She usually makes jam when the peaches are in season. Which makes me laugh because I know she has a large stash of peach jam jars somewhere and I didn't even think to take a picture of them. I did take pictures of the peaches and jam last summer though, here: http://rtedwardsfam.blogspot.com/2011/09/flashback-end-of-july-2011.html

  4. Love your hunt for peach. I had a similar experience. I even went to the crayons but I still buy the fat crayons for my kids so I only had about 12 colors...and peach wasn't one of them.

    1. I like to color with the fat crayons better. I think all the colors should be chunky, including peach!

  7. Beautiful! I love the yarn shot. See, there are just so many variations of "peach" and that's why I stuck with the fruit. LOL.
