hello yellow


I enjoyed a very relaxing weekend with mainly Indian food and I think all the Indian spices brought on a yellow mood. All I could think about posting today was something yellow. It's a colour that has been growing on me. I probably wouldn't use it on walls but I can definitely see myself decorating with it, and I wish that yellow Le Creuset were mine. Call me crazy but I'm a firm believer that food tastes better when cooked in gorgeous kitchenware!

How is this Monday treating you so far?

UPDATE: Happy Thanksgiving all you Canadians out there!

  1. It´s POURING down outside - a classic, cold autumn rain... But I don´t care (and am just a tiny bit bitter) - I´m still heading out for a powerwalk when I come home! :-)

    Love the yellow in these pics, such a pick me up - color! :-)

  2. Yellow has been growing on me lately too! I never used to be a big yellow fan...

    Today is nice. It is Thanksgiving here in Canada so it is a holiday today :)

  3. Yellow is such a happy color! I especially enjoy the more muted tones (ie mustard- hehe, spice ;) this time of year.
    Enjoy your week Lisa! xoxo

  4. I'd take that pan from Le Creuset in any color, but I do admit it is pretty in yellow :)

    And funny, I did a tangerine yellow post today as well!

    Hugs,

  5. I have a theory:
    when you cook happier and with love, the dishes are better....so i agree with you.
    I love yellow in decoration, especially the mustard yellow. It is elegant and believe in me that you can mix it with many other colours. Happy Monday!

  6. Oh I can't help but be happy when I see the color yellow. And I just love that Le Creuset. Makes me want to trade in my red for this beauty :)

    Hope your week is off to a wonderful start, Lisa! xoxo

  7. A weekend full of Indian food. How lovely. I have a blue Le Creuset casserole just like that but wish it was yellow now. Have a great week Lisa.

  9. Yellow isn't a color I would normally choose, but I love the pops of color, especially in the first photo. That balloon!

    I LOVE my Le Creuset! Definitely gets a lot of use in my house.

  13. oh yes, a yellow Le Creuset would be fabulous. although i prefer looking at them than actually cooking with them, so darn heavy! a few pots on a shelf just for decoration?

  14. Oh I agree with Eleni. Mustard yellow is my favourite. With some black and/or grey textiles and rustic rooms :)
    I got a set of LeCreuset in black for our wedding. I think I've used it once. It is so heavy and I don't have patience to do slow cooking stews and casseroles. Although I love when my grandmother did her special recipes... :)

  16. loving a little punch of yellow too. A set of a couple of Le Creuset would be great wouldn't it... yellow would do it, or red or blue, whatever.

    What time is dinner ?
