Aubergine? What's that?????

I am sorry, but I believe you are all going to be the victims of my staying up too late.

I was searching the web, looking for flower girl dress ideas for my great niece, which is a very difficult task. One, she is so darn cute, and therefore, the dress must be as well!

I will also tell you that my bridesmaid dresses are Aubergine in color......but, not all shades of aubergine are the same!

I decided to do a google search to ask..."What color is aubergine?"

This is THE color of the bridesmaid dresses, pretty sexy, huh?

I mean, I know what color it is, but it seems there a varying shades, and quite frankly, I am getting pretty particular about my aubergine.
And Bruce is color blind...he is no help at all!!!
How convenient!!!!!!!!

Okay, so I went to the florist......evidently there are no flowers that are aubergine!

That is ok, so I add to my color palette and incorporate, cream, apple green, white, etc....... into my bouquet and all the wedding flowers.

Oh, that is right, back to the aubergine!

Aubergine is french for Eggplant!

Who would have guessed (I flunked French!)??

I found a mouse pad with an aubergine on it.......it would be hilarious if someone bought this for me as a wedding gift!!

But if a member of the wedding party does that, I may just have to insist they wear these matching boots!!!!
