Blue' Coloured Thursday - KIWI!
When playing any meme, it's always wise to get ones 'prompt' facts correct.
For some strange reason, till gently put right, I'd got Burgundy on my mind rather than KIWI - maybe it was because I've been enjoying tippling on red wine!!!
Anyway, had to really think about KIWI as a colour as to me, it's more a delicious fruit...
I remember clearly, my very first taste in the early 1970's of this then new luxury item, also called a Chinese Gooseberry here!!!
I was @ Technical College, my friend & I each bought one to try, and with a 'borrowed' knife from the college canteen carefully peeled back the furry coat to reveal lush brilliant green sweet succulent flesh - have loved them ever since!

As @ the moment I'm sort of living the life of a hermit, have regrettably not been down to the Covered Market's fruit stands to purchase some to photograph for today & then eat with pleasure; so it's local KIWI greens in nature looking lush after the recent continuing rains that I'm featuring instead...
I do have a KIWI coloured cake though from the Celebration Cake Shop's window - taken this year & not previously posted [I think?]...
As lately my blogging has been more miss than hit, KIWI as in New Zealander & not as in green friends Doyle & Mollie [who I suspect picked picked this weeks colour :)] have taken up the slack re me failing to post on 'True Colours Thursday' - they with my blessing now host the 'Blue's Coloured Thursday' meme HERE!
