(Day 271) - Run Down

Before the month begins, I go through my calendar and plug in all my ideas each day's photo. Some days all I write is one word and figure out later what that photo will be.

Today's word was crayon. Now the image in my head was a simple shot of some excellently sharpened crayons. But, when I looked into our collection, all the purple crayons were little nubs.

Then I was hit with a memory of when my sister was little, coloring away in her coloring book with her favorite color in the world...purple. That's why all the purple ones look like this! Dunno why, but I couldn't help but smile at that little memory. :)
Lovely color

Every house should have a crayon collection- shows class and creativity, especially if there are nubs and well worn labels. fav.

What a great story to go with the crayons, and a particularly pretty purple picture.

Such intense and saturated color...nice shot, as usual, and nice memory. Nostalgia can be a lovely thing, especially in purple.

The first thing I thought of was Harold and the Purple Crayon! But his never wore out. I like this one a lot because the crayons are worn!
