Yesterday, I talked about my favorite red Fall things. Today I'm thinking orange......

1. An orange cashmere scarf

2. University of Tennessee sweatshirt

3. Orange buttercream frosting

4. An orange sky

5. Pumpkins

Can you think of some other orange favorites?

Orange is my favorite color. I think that is why I love fall and Halloween so much. I also love the smell and sound of fall. The crunch of the leaves as I walk and the smell of the crisp air. LOVE IT!!!

I couldn't think of anything other than candy-corns lol. I like this lil' poem though.

What is Orange?

Orange is a tiger lily,
A carrot,
A feather from
A parrot,
A flame,
The wildest color you can name.
Saying good-bye
In a sunset that
Shocks the sky .
Orange is brave
Orange is bold
It's bittersweet
And marigold.
Orange is zip
Orange is dash
The brightest stripe
In a Roman sash.
Orange is an orange
Also a mango.
Orange is the music
Of the tango.
Orange is the fur
Of the fiery fox,
The brightest crayon
In the box.
And in the fall
When the leaves are tuming
Orange is the smell
Of a bonfire burning.

I like your list, but make mine a burnt orange University of Texas sweatshirt--whenever we get cool enough temperatures to even think about sweatshirts!

Barb Davis said...

Angie- Sweet potato pie! I love it.

Barb Davis said...

Pat- Maybe some of our cool weather will come your way!

I have an orange fleece sweater that is loud and warm and I absolutely love it. Unfortunately it's too warm here in Pittsburgh right now. Hopefully we'll get a chill in the last few weeks of October so I can wear my orange with pride.
