random color association game

1. Pick a color at complete random
Use a color randomizer (I used this one https://spinthewheel.app/wheel-of-colors ,) or spin around and point to something on your palette, or pick from a jar of mixed crayons with your eyes closed, etc.

2. Post what is the first association you can think of you have to that color.
(Not something general like green being associated to peas or envy... unless you have an actual relevant story to match.)
Share as much or as little as you want.

Like if you did actually have a personal association with green peas because a memory cropped up working in the graden with your grandmother, you could either just post "green. green peas", or launch into a paragraph or two talking about the experience.

But if you only thought of them because they exist (like seen them grocery shopping,) contemplate it a bit longer for a different association.
(Though now I'm picturing a scenario where someone met their significant other while reaching for a can of green peas, but all they post here is "green, harmony" and we never get to hear the beautiful story. lol.)


Also, heads up, this is a self administering concept, so I probably will come and go ittermittently and am not going to be super controlling about how you all actually choose to play. I thought of the concept when I used it to choose which battle to play in another game. Super sleepy and couldn't decide.
But this seemed like a fun little forum game.
(wasn't sure if I should put it in games or chat, because I want people to feel free to discuss previous posts. Not obligatory though.)

Purple - Sleepy Time
(It's the music in the stage that was picked. The color is associated with a character that is always falling asleep. And when I'd play the game regularly I noticed his theme music would help relax me if not have me drift off completely. lol. So I always played his stage last.)

...next! : D / your turn

Blue - my chihuahua.
(at first nothing was coming to mind which was a surprise to me as it's so calming and I love it..., but a deeper blue than what they have posted there... was what i picked as my dog's color for her harness. She was patterned, so nothing fancy looked good with her, but solid blue looked good ....and now I know why Light blue stuck out to me on the wheel ...the color of half of one of her eyes. : ) )

light green - rabbits !
whenever i see light green i think of clovers, and the wild rabbits around where i live loooove eating clovers. you see em out in people's yards all the time especially early in the spring when everything is green and blooming 😸 i also used to have pet rabbits when i was younger and the bowl i'd use for feeding them their vegetables was light green
