Purple...and who doesn't love purple?  When I think of purple, I think of lots of things....

The age old poem.....I never saw a purple cow...etc

And of course there is the irritating Purple Dinosaur that used to be on TV.....lol

♫ "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family" ♫

But mostly I think of purple flowers as I truly love a vivid purple in my gardens.  Here is the "meaning" of purple flowers according to the internet...

One Eyed, One Horned Flying Purple People Eater.  I liked that song the 1st thousand times I heard it.  That's something we used to say as kids.  LOL

However I was a Purple People Eater for Halloween one year & my Mom made my costume.  She soaked sheets in hot water with purple crepe paper to dye them.  Ever heard of that?
