the never-ending search
Yesterday Barry drove Allie and I into Mainz to pick up my string of pearls that we had re-strung. She’s going to wear them when she gets married. They are four different colors that can best be described as grey, peach, silvery white/light gray and lavender-ish/pink. All of them have a silvery sheen and depending on what color you are wearing, will depend on which pearl stands out. I also have a matching bracelet. If I had matching earring it would be complete as it is Allie and I spend half our time in Mainz either looking for pink shoes or looking for pink earrings. Which pink is a relative term since there must be a zillion shades and we have to have a particular one to match the sash on her dress. A very light almost whitish/lavenderish pink, sheesh! We had no idea having a little color would cause so much grief. She will probably end up with a pair of white flats and my white gold diamond earrings that Bear got me for our 25th anniversary last year. The good thing is, if your a traditionalist and pay attention to that kind of thing we have something old, new and borrowed covered. All she needs is blue. lol.
