a violet thursday

so you may be wondering why i'm looking so puzzled, well to tell you the truth i'm wondering how b is going to turn violet into something else...


rather easily it would seem! i have just been instructed to tell you all, and i quote, "viola is a genus of flowering plants in the violet family violaceae". so good old doofus b has found a viola she likes called molly - got to give it to her it does actually have a wee spec of violet in its centre but more importantly note how b has now got us onto the subject of mollie... give me a break b the viola in question is not even spelt right, it's spelt molly, not mollie like our wee mollie...


here's a fact b, according to the urban dictionary a flirtatious, crazy person can be referred to as a violet... i have to say this pic makes mollie look more like a shrinking violet... oh let's hope doyle, lets hope...


it also says a violet crumble is a term referring to girls who are brunettes but act like stereotypical blondes... and how do they get that you may ask, well there's a violet crumble chocolate bar that has chocolate covered honeycomb...


well i guess at a pinch mollie's coat could be described as chocolate covered honeycomb but i still think you are stretching it b maybe it's saying she's an airhead arf arf... hey while we are on the subject of stretching it and airheads you really reckon her new fluffy rug is violet...


and you also reckon her tag on her very girlie collar has violet bits...


aw b you really have got no idea have you i am thinking they are lilac... i'll show you violet...


see the stripes on my witches hat that sally ann and mack sent me... they are violet...


hey b you gonna tell everyone how your mum and dad came up to stay for the weekend, i'm kinda missing not having them around it was really nice having them here i got loads of secret pats and things and you got to finally hang the quilt...


we did doyle and we are so rapt with it... it has made our hallway so very grand. mum's a very clever lady making it especially for us with all the colours we so enjoy, spashes of violet, mint, cerise and turquoise to name just a few. it's an heirloom doyle that's for sure and something we will always treasure did you see mum's special label...


and how cool it was to all be with dad on his birthday too. so doyle you all set for mollie arriving on saturday... you kidding me right... she really is coming?? in two days!! oh sheesh, newspaper all over the floors, mystery puddles, sharp nippy teeth... oh joy...*sigh*


next week blue's set the challenge to be lapis lazuli or bright blue... personally i think she should have set it to be 'mollie' cos i can tell'ya now that's all b & c will be taking pics of this week for sure... arf arf!

Violet is a most beautiful color and you seem to have lots of it at your house. Good luck with that Mollie Monster.
