My name, Russell, means red. Or at least that is what I have been told. Something about foxes was mixed in with that. Not sure what.
In any event, regardless of the name connection, I have always liked red.
My silverware is red. Maybe I should call it redware. It looks identical to this. I bought it at a Target store years ago. A set of 4 for $8.99. They were on special. I figured since I am only one person a set of 4 was more than enough.
Target is a store that is known for being red, red, red. I believe Canada now has Target stores or will be getting them soon. They are very popular here in the states. We like to pronounce it "Tar-jay" to give it a bit of a French sound. More elegant you know.
I have a red car that looks like this. I never owned a red car before this one. I like it. It is easy to find in a parking lot. And I just like owning a red car. For some reason I don't think I will ever go back to beige again.
Of course my closet has several red ties. I don't like a tie that is all red. I like a tie that has a pattern in it or maybe a stripe. Often I like red ties with black accents. Red and black go together very well.
As I type this I am wearing a red robe that looks like this. When I get home from work I usually disgard regular clothes and put on something very comfortable with my robe. It is like wearing a blanket. I like it.
Today I was in a store and noticed this red coffee maker. The one I have is worn out. And it is all white. I might get this one. Might be a bit easier to find before my first cup of coffee.
Thanks for stopping by.

You crack me up, Russell...my coffee maker is red, too, as my kitchen "accents" are all red. I look good in red and did you know someone we both know was going to get a red coat for her birthday, but it was too big! I hope she finds one as I think she'd look gorgeous in red!
I agree! I think she would look terrific in red or any other colour ....!
I am going to get the red coffee maker this weekend. If you like red you would like my kitchen.
I just bought a red crock pot. And I have 3 of those enamel coated cast iron cooking pots in red. Love them. My utensil holders are red, as are my spoons and spatulas. And I plan to continue with the red accents after I paint my kitchen lime green, to match the red and lime green quilted table runner I made!
Happy New Year, Russell!
I like red too. Such a great color. I have been told I look good in red also. MB
Ok For the New Year, we'll just call you Big Red!! lol
Our Zellers closed and we will have a Target store pretty soon in it's place. It missed the Christmas rush which is rather sad.
:)
