📷 Chartreuse
Mentioning our old mauve rug yesterday and thinking about that post again today sparked a weird color tangent for me this morning. Chartreuse is a color word I associate with being garish or obnoxious in the context I've read it, but I didn't actually know what it looks like on the color wheel. Turns out it's bright yellow-green and its name derives from a French liqueur known as chartreuse. It's really common in nature of course, but for convenience's sake the Lego Technic Lamborghini my son Nathan got for Christmas is in the neighborhood.
