IT'S TRUE COLOURS THURSDAY - WHAT IS PUCE?

Good Afternoon,

Before we start, we want to apologize about the size of our FONT - we are having a horrible time getting it the size we want it and when we do and then post, it changes to a different size. We really are not yelling -- too loudly, that is.

And welcome to True Colours Thursday. Miss Blue, as always is our gracious host for today. Please drop by and visit her if you'd like to play along. The colour for today is PUCE. It had us a bit stumped for selections when it was decided upon and frankly we haven't changed our minds. And the fact that Wikipedia has it described as the colour of an underbelly of a flea leaves us not really wanting to delve into the matter further (plus just typing this is making our secretary's head itch!). But for your consideration today, we have chosen the following items from in and around our home - can you enlighten us?

Which one is truly PUCE?When we first saw that PUCE

was a suggested colour,
Mom thought it was the colour
of the green stripe in these socks she knitted,
but we explained to her that was the coulour
another word that began with "puc"
and that the red stripe was closer to PUCE.

See this cute little Wheaten Scottie figurine.
Jazzi sent it to us in her package
and Mom was remiss about getting it on the post.
Is the composition notebook
it is perched upon PUCE?

Or these funny scissors
that won't cut yarn
and cut paper all zig-zaggy -
Are they PUCE?

Is the bag our food comes in PUCE?

Or is the bench on our front porch PUCE?
We thought it was "Barn Red"

All of these years we thought
our Scottie Scooter was "Inferno Red."
Could the manufacturer be mistaken
and it's PUCE?


And our sweet sissy, Kat.
Does she have PUCE hair
(we know no flea bellies are living in there)
or is she wearing a PUCE blouse?

XOXO,
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Java
