Tick tock



Admittedly BBBH did more than I did, but I made a significant contribution.  She's good with color, I with orientation.  Well, she's good at that, too.

(She says things like "Do you see any more purple pieces?" 
Well, no, I don't say, I never saw any "purple pieces" in the first place.)

I say lavender, she says puce; I say tan, she says beige.  Okay, you see how that  works.

That's a lovely puzzle.

I know the routine well. Joe calls maroon "purple"...it drives me crazy.

Grace, it was an enjoyable way to pass some time.

Lin, BBBH says, "I know; men are color blind."

My observation is that few men are color blind. The problem comes in that men tend to see only six basic colors . . . or is it five?

Chuck, three primary, three secondary. All others are simply shades and blends. And I can see many of those, but plum and peach and cranberry are not colors; they are fruit. I do have a brother-in-law who is truly color blind, but his wife thoughtfully and carefully lays out his suit, shirt, tie and sox when he is planning to "go out." He always looks great!

Nice puzzle. At least your Better Half will work them with you. My color blind Hubby finds them frustrating.

Vee, mostly we "work together" unless I am poaching "her pieces." She often assembles a chunk then I locate its attachment in the picture.
