Day 14: 5 Minute Freewrite - Apricot (in Autumn)

I glanced out my kitchen window to admire the autumn colors one more time. It is definitely habit at this point, a few weeks in from the beginning, a few weeks out from the end. I've learned to love every minute and glance every chance I get. Today is drizzling a fine rain on and off and makes the colors even richer, deeper.

Apricot! The word zinged through my head! It is the color of autumn! The blending color. Oh sure. Some think it is pumpkin ... so over used!

Well I would need proof. I grabbed my tablet for its camera. I grabbed a color strip (yes. I do just have a palette book lazing about.)

Is that it? 5 minutes of writing and I have a post? Yes. Essentially. That's all it takes. I mean look. You have the Intro, The Realization, The solution. You don't really need for me to get all prose about autumn, in detail. It's been done! You just need to know about the impact of apricot in my life. That's it. Five minutes. Maybe we're over thinking this writing thing. ;-)

This post is for the 5 Minute Freewrite Challenge by @mariannewest. You can browse through the prompt choices in her profile and be current, go back in time, or wait for tomorrow's prompt. But, we're half-way through. She's only going to do 30. Which I think is a bloom'n shame.
