Sorry. I forgot they were Necco Wafers. Not Nico. I think we must have "said it" as Nico. Yep! Nicosia. First time I saw that word I thought of Necco Wafers.

And, association/perversion of "nickle" and nicotine. Nicotania.

A teentsy sad part for me is that nowadays I won't eat them. This bums me out considerably. (Horns and hooves in there.)

Uhm ~ it pleases me to know you like the colors. I like the brown ones too. And even the grey ones.

I DO NOT approve of new M and M colors. DO NOT.

I know; this is a little odd, for a neophiliac.

Pastel Necco Wafers. Ooooh. Springy.
Easter. Navojo sand and water color paints.
Celadon ware.

This reminds me, I have another really cool colored item I wanted to show you guys. I like coloured things. Ooops ~ spelled that with a u. Must be Crocodilial influence.

I remember telling my tenth grade art professor that I liked the word spelled with a "U" better, colour, and he looked up at me, kind of surprised and said, "So do I." We laughed.

He said it seemed more right.

For colour.

Me too.

Really.

It does.

It's probably not the kind of thing people worry about. But I had thought long, and hard about it. I think it is worth it; AND important.

There is a huge difference in the depth and presentation and mystery of the word.
Like a lime. With papaya.
