TASTE THE RAINBOW

I'm a bit preoccupied at the moment with items of all kinds that require a decent pair of sunglasses before you can appraise them. That's not a negative thing by the way, I simply mean to say I am finding myself so attracted to all kinds of neon inyerface brights that dazzle the eyeballs.
Perhaps its down to the waiting for spring: technically its close...the Daffodils and Tulips are starting to poke through yet Spring and Summer seem so far away really, thanks to the grey skies, the freezing temperatures, the persistent return of the snows.
So to cheer myself up I am making candy coloured treasury of brights this afternoon


.....as Taio Cruz says "I throw Skittles in the air sometimes, saying aaaaa oooh taste the rainbow"...
OK so he didn't really but that leads onto another issue....if we are having a coveting of all the colours of the rainbow day, we might as well have some music to go with it.....for this I heartily recommend the following for sheer perky-ness. Play loud, on a loop :)
