It's always blue or purple or gray . . . sometimes even rose or peach.

Ryan had a philosophy professor in college who did an occasional class that he called "ask me anything", and they discussed this phenomenon. It's because the snow is white, so it can reflect any color, and you are seeing the shadow plus the reflected blue of the sky. I'm not sure if it's a real explanation, but it sounds good to me. Some things should remain wondrous and not have to be explained.<br /><br />Your mitts are a beautiful blue, and I'm happy to see Norah's quilt looking so good.Bonnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608328439375705263noreply@blogger.com
