Growing up, the family kitchen was yellow - a nice, warm golden shafe. And the kitchen was always a happy place, full of warmth from the wood stove, the aromas of Mom's baking, and the laughter of family dinners.
I think that's why yellow always makes me happy.
Now that we have the lovely table, I'm taking advantage of a space for fresh flowers. Last week was pale yelllow tulips - this week I couldn't resist the red roses and happy yellow freesia. Even my yellow socks are making me smile. In fact, I think I like pale yellow lace almost as much as I like white lace.
What colour makes you smile?

Rocky says thank-you for all the love....
And Tux says:
"Rocky can pout all he likes - she's MY human!"

There wasn't much laughter around the dinner table when dad made salmon cakes. :(
Ooooo...freesia. I love freesia.
My favorite color is burgundy --- a rich, deep burgundy.
Your bouquet of flowers is beautiful. They sure dress up a table!
I like the pale yellow lace socks too. The pattern is very lacy, very feminine!
And the boys...they love their momma! So sweet!
Those socks are looking really nice! I'm not a great yellow fan, but for socks it works; my favourite colour is peacock, especially if paired with purple; yum!
I envy you the freesias; will be a while before mine flower again, if they do. They used it be in a fairly dry spot, but since the earthquakes and new drive they get drowned each time it rains heavily.
Right now I am happy that there's lots of green outside! A few days of sun and warmer weather and those tiny buds on the trees have opened up and are almost leaves!
Pretty sock.
We too had a yellow kitchen growing up, but everything was yellow - the walls, the cupboards inside and out, the ceiling, the countertops ... everything. Even the curtains and table cloth were primarily yellow. It was really overwhelming, and I still mostly hate yellow to this day.
Lovely post. You made my day!
Tux is gorgeous . I love pale yellow as much as cream too
Haha! Tux has totally "claimed" you in that picture.
Yellow is definitely a smiling color. I like it bright and zesty and citron! Fake buttered popcorn looking ;)
But I am a color slut. I like the blue and green hues of a tropical vacation to smile too.
I have learned to smile a lot with pink in the last 2 years.
