into sombre November
And the apples were gathered and stored,
and the land became brown..."

  6. Brown is my favorite color...my grounding color. Love the photos. Stamps, leaves, coffee, teddy, pine cones, chocolate, are also some of my favorite things. Beautiful photos!

  7. I was never a brown fan until just the last couple of years and now I love it. LOVE it! The pictures are perfect.

    Love the beef and noodles from your sidebar. I don't even have to click on the recipe since I already have it printed and have made it more than once. Just not recently...sounds like something for a menu plan soon...

  8. I wear brown most of the time, yet I wouldn't have said it was my favourite colour.

    But if I surround myself with it so much, it must be. And now you've revealed its beauty to me. So, this is what brown is all about!

  19. As I've got older I've really come to appreciate brown and yellow ochres. You've done a great job showing all the lovely things that go with it and evoling wonderful aromas, to boot. That coffee in particular looks incredible.

  20. You got it all in this post. Things that appeal to me are not always red and green and blue. Brown is one of my favorite photos. Nice post.
