Peaches and orange

My favourite colour is probably peach.  Peach is not quite as bright as orange and it sometimes comes across as pink.. Its funny how peach and orange are both the names of fruit!

I don’t  wear a watch, mainly because I don’t really  find the need to keep track of time … But if I had to wear one I would wear a watch like this..
  Ribbon Watch Ribbon Watch
How lovely is it? When I think of  ribbon that is a perfect example of  what comes to mind. Hmmm,…. Maybe I should start wearing a watch, I think I have some spare ribbon lying around somewhere..

Stay Magical,

I have always wanted an encyclopedia of animals so I could read a section of it each night. Last year I bought one although it wasn’t very big so I read parts of it and then put it away. The other day I saw it sitting on my shelf so I pulled it out and started reading…deer Did you know Deer have a great sense of hearing and can  move their ears in any direction, without moving the head.

GiraffeA giraffe’s tongue is 18 to 20 inches (46 to 50 centimeters) long and a blue-black colour!!!

Llama Llamas are very smart and affectionate, they don’t bite but can spit up to 10 feet or more to tell other  llamas to stay away!! 

Hummingbird And, just incase you ever get asked how many times a hummingbirds wings beat per second, its 90!
Here is some artwork I found of  the above animals..
