  105. Sarah J. says:

    Love a nice buttery yellow, or an olivey green!

  106. Robin H says:

    Oh no, I can’t pick one favorite color! It changes by my mood, or the light, or what window I’m looking our of, or even what book I’m reading. The closest I can get is that it will be somewhere in the green/blue/violet range. Unless its autumn, then it’s a tree color. Ooh, or early spring, then it’s forsythia yellow. Or sometimes I see a really great crimson red. Conversely, I have only one absolute least favorite color and that’s taupe. I even hate the word taupe.

  107. kathyh says:

    Aqua/Teal/Turquoise.
