In a moment of weakness at the end of a very long day, we found ourselves at the checkout in a Target, disoriented and worn down, buying the item we were looking for and… a 50 pack of fine tip Crayola markers. Can you believe they only cost 6 dollars!? Not our normal buying strategy, but perhaps it should be. I am so in love with these markers. I have never owned so many different colors. This kind of excess seemed completely out of reach to me as a child. Wow! I find myself drawing pictures, just so I can color them in. However, I’ve found that in the face of so many bright choices all knowledge of color theory, or even basic restraint, goes right out the window. Instead I find myself bemoaning how I didn’t get to use a single pink marker in this picture!
