Strawberry Jam, Thyme and Vanilla
Red is passion and anger. Is blood and life. Is strawberry and redcurrant. Is ink and paper. Is color and pigment. Is tomato and beet. Is fire and earth. Is strength and virility. Is feminine and masculine. Is soup and jam. And it is the theme of the day in the challenge of Color Day. The possibility of creating around the scarlet are immense and I believe that a thousand and one ideas have crossed the mind of all those currently participating in the challenge. I was not the exception but the choice fell on a jam I went to try since I saw her. The choice was perfect and so I leave my mark on Red Day
