Now that I am over the first rush of squeeing at the pretties, I am reminded to compliment Kali on her eye for a well-composed photograph.

If I thought I could match the color from here, I'd be tempted to mail her a Chinatown painted parasol. (While Regency ladies didn't always bother to color-coordinate, the one I have on hand is apple-green with pink paint and flowers, and would really hurt with that dress.)
