No matter how you spell it ... it's still o-r-a-n-g-e.

 

Even though I was searching out the color of orange to take photos of for my orange scavenger hunt, after awhile, I started seeing the word 'orange'! Must be some deep psychological connection there, right? There are so many things that bring me right back to growing up ... Orange Crush is one of them! Pop the top, hear the fizz and taste that refreshing icy cold orange. Obviously, orange pop was a hit no matter which company made it!

 

 

 

We never had loose oranges growing up ... they always came in a bag like this. And my mom ... one of the original recyclers just like every other mom in town found ways to use the bags over and over until they had no more uses left.

 

 

We had juice glasses just like this ... I think they came with detergent or sugar ... some item a family of nine used a lot!

 

   

 

It's amazing how when you do one of these scavenger hunts things just jump out at you left and right. Cool things like this pillow ... and really odd things, too. Who knew they made orange painters tape and fire hydrants? Love that orange isn't just for Halloween any more!

You would love this place ... the antique stores are to die for! Totally different than around here ... at least in my opinion!
