I saw that and when they showed a picture of her in her wedding dress (I assumed it was her wedding dress) I thought that sure doesn't look gray to me. I thought it looked kind of blue. Anyway, putting gray colored icing on a cake is almost the same as trying to put silver colored icing on a cake. Silver icing looks like gray icing unless of course you sprinkle it with Zac's disco dust to give it a shimmer. |

I wanted him to be in the finale, but that cake was hideous. |

It's sort of orange. I can remember seeing a car for the first time that was about that color. It was a strange looking car as well. We were all wandering around it muttering about how ugly it was when the owner came out. Then we stood there with frozen smiles on our faces. I then said to the owner (knowing full well that it was her car), "Is that your car? What is it?" I can't remember what kind of car she told me it was. I'm sure they are common now but at the time it was a strange body shape. She smiled and looked pleased so hopefully she didn't know that we were making fun of it. > Julie Bove in Hawaain Punch: > http://wickedweasel.com/en-us/shop/b...buy/449-05-334 Yikes, no! I don't like a thing like that. |

And that's a hideous color. http://automobiles.honda.com/element/ Earlier this week I was driving behind a brand new Corvette that was exactly that color. It was so ugly, I'm amazed anyone would spend that kind of money for that color car. OTOH it may have been a custom order.

Just begging for a replacement > but I'm not in the mood for ripping up everything. > > Nothing purple in the house at the moment. HINT! ![]() My kitchen was remodeled shortly before I moved in. The floor is good. It's black and white. I like it. Can't say that I like the pink and blue wallpaper that they put up, but there is only a small amount and in odd places. I just left it there. I don't like the cabinets or countertops either. Actually I don't like the layout of the kitchen. It looks okay on the surface but isn't very workable. Oh, to have a huge kitchen with an island in it and granite countertops. |
