3x3 Colour Meme!

Via belenen, from kehlen_crow:
Drop a comment and I will give you three colours. You will then look around from where you're writing the reply, and name three items you see in each of those colours.

When I asked to play along, James gave me white, orange, and violet. (and then I squee'd because I don't tend to have a lot of orange around but LO! today I've indulged in a mango craving! So!)

White: Bills waiting to be paid, half the stripes on an afghan my kid's great-grandma crocheted for him when he was tiny (forward-thinking woman she is, she made it sofa-sized. <3 ), and the as-yet-unstained microwave. :D

Orange: Some of the information on Dae's school calendar, most of this bottle of Synergy "Mystic Mango" kombucha, and my coil of 22g copper wire.

Violet: My steel waterbottle, a drink koosh Dae decorated for Mothers' Day in preschool (it's a bright violet, strewn with blue and yellow foam cutouts of hearts and flowers, and scrawly squeaker-writing in blue marker, "Ma you're the best". I'm guessing part of the reason it's scrawly is because there was a teacher's hand cupped round Dae's at the time of writing, because...again...preschool. <3 ) that's currently full of pencils & pens, and (for twilight-blueish values of violet) my shirt. I don't know who's responsible for rayon knit fabric being in fashion, but OH I'm happy. So soft. So drapey. :D

So that's me. Want to play?

:D Wal-Mart or Publix or Target, I can't remember which. Oddly enough, I can't find it for sale on any of their websites, but at K-Mart! Oh hey! There it is! (http://www.kmart.com/subzero-600-ml-double-wall-vacume-purple/p-089W005205139004P) (This amuses me because I'm not sure where my nearest K-Mart is, so that's the one place I KNOW I didn't get it from.)

I like that it's dishwasher safe and there aren't any unreachable nooks or crannies in it, so no surprise mold or mildew can pop up in places that never get enough airflow to dry properly.
