Brown

“I cannot pretend to be impartial about the colors.
I rejoice with the brilliant ones, and am
genuinely sorry for the poor browns." ~~Winston Churchill ~~~~
Now I have the upmost respect for Mr. Churchill,
but I love brown!

  1. If only Mr. Churchill could see your brown post I think he would have a change of heart! I love browns - and who couldn't love a chocolate cupcake - or a chocolate lab!

  5. I LOVE that quote.... I must say that I agree, though your post has made some progress in convincing me otherwise!

    Cheers!

  9. I can't decide which is more adorable...the chocolate lab or the chocolate cupcake...and the funny thing is they are so cute I want to take a bite out of both!

  12. Oh that Chocolate Lab is adorable! I love those dogs.

    Brown is such a under rated color but your profiled it wonderfully Betsy! I always enjoy these posts!

    I'm still trying to catch up after being away for a week in San Diego.

  14. I love browns...I decorage with them and wear them, too! That chocolate lab is adorable. When we went to get Ralphy there was a chocolate puppy in the litter, too, and we had a hard time deciding. I wanted both of them!

  18. Ahh..these pictures make me feel so cozy. I forgot just how comforting brown can be. That makes me think I need to take more of that outlook when looking at the brown grass and Rockies around us!

  19. I'll take one chocolate lab and one chocolate cupcake, please!:)

  20. I tend to think Churchill had the color thing right...except that brown does make chocolate seem yummier and brown puppies even more adorable...and big brown eyes....okay maybe Churchill didn't completely have it right...but I do adore brilliant color myself.

    ps is that a piece of petrified stone?

  21. Mmm~ yes, brown is cozy. Somehow I don't get that same feeling when looking at brown grass, though! :)

  22. Happy birthday! I am catching up now and responding to all the entries I've missed all at once. I am sure the boys were relieved at being back on the grid and back on schedule. I love brown and love these pictures. Have a great day.

  23. Ahhh! The stone is amber! I was wondering too!

  24. I saw your blog and found a piece of history your camera recorded. It is a blink, stopped dead-still, exposing a moment in time and the fascination you see in brown.

    I SO VERY MUCH WANT to cuddle that chocolate Lab puppy and eat that cupcake!!
