Tom C –

Your “Pepto Pink” incident had me roaring! It reminded me of the time, many years ago, when I tried to be adventuresome by getting away from the white and off-whites I had lived with all my life. I decided to paint my living room “Pumpkin”. Pumpkin indeed! That’s designer talk for orange. OMG – the first wall looked awful. I’ll never understand why I thought it might look better when the whole room was done! After that I never veered away from the whites.

And now I find I’m getting that “I want some color itch”. But I am afraid … and your post scared me even more. LOL
