The Colour Purple

I like purple. I wear it quite often. In fact I am wearing it right now. Hubby likes it too. Back in the seventies when everything seemed to be purple, orange or lime green we had a purple bedspread on our bed. We still have a few purple things around the house and in the wardrobe.

What else do I like that’s purple? Cadbury chocolate of course. The wrapper not the chocolate. I dont think I would eat purple chocolate.  We have a Cadbury factory right here in Hobart at Claremont. It was decided to build it here in Tasmania because we have the best milk.

As much as I like Cadbury chocolates my favourite toffees are Nestle, Quality Street, the ones we always buy for a special treat.

What else? Our local team in the T20 Cricket Big Bash competition is the Hobart Hurricanes-and what colour do they wear? You guessed it! Yes their sponsor was Cadbury’s for the first year or two of the competion. Here is a page from my cricket album.

I have purple stuff in my doll room too. This is the last of a batch of purple nylon yarn that was bought for a jumper that was never made. It has been used for doll and teddy clothing over the years but there is still a bit left.  I played around with Picasa a bit for this but it really is purple.
