10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite Green Things

New Houseplants

Wow, what a topic! Of course it is in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, but some of my very favorite things are green and green is one of my favorite colors. I have no shortage of green handknits or yarns. And I’ve never been one to shy away from veggies and some of my absolute favorites are green - broccoli, spinach, kale, asparagus, edamame and on and on. Not to mention one of the most trying things for me about living in Colorado is the lack of green and prevalence of brown. Since I grew up in moist and humid Minnesota I’m accustomed to lush green woods and fields of various crops to surround me all summer long. So I present to you a pictorial look at just a small sampling of 10 favorite green things.

Lovely, pictures. I would have a tough time in Colorado too because of the brown. I need some green at all times.

Thanks for your visit to my site, by the way. I enjoyed reading your comment.

Such lovely greens! I spent many years in Wyoming and Colorado. I did miss the greens of the midwest . . . but there are other quite lovely things to take their place! (I’m a green fan, too!)

So pretty! I love the peacock feathers.

When I lived in NM, I craved green. UNM’s campus has a lot of grass, but in general, I learned to appreciate the many shades of brown. Still, I’m glad of the green now that I’m back in New England!
