Yesterday was Purple Saturday. Guess Speedy was busy or forgot, because he didn’t have a post to remind me.

But, I had grapes in yesterday’s post. Those are purple. I think that counts for something.

Anyway, we’ll make it official with a Purple Sunday post. Plus, I didn’t have any other ideas. I was hoping that this January was going to beat January 2009 in terms of traffic, but that’s not going to happen. Last year, I had that surge in traffic from the Twitter phishing posts. Still, I was on track to beat last year, even without a big surge of traffic from anything. I did get some minor blips from the Late Night TV Battles, but that was nothing compared to the Twitter phishing traffic of last year.

And, this being a weekend, where traffic is normally lower than on the weekdays (I guess people must read blogs at work…), there’s probably not much chance of beating out last January. I would have to about double my normal weekend traffic. So, bummer.

Anyway, you’re probably wondering what’s in the photo. It is cauliflower. Purple cauliflower. Like Bond, James Bond. Only it’s cauliflower, purple cauliflower.

And, it’s real. I did not make it up. See?

For those that still don’t believe me, check it out on Wikipedia: Cauliflower. It’s purple because it has antioxidants. Still don’t believe me? Okay, then, maybe you’ll believe The Persnickety Palate: “Purple Cauliflower Eater.”

Now that we’ve established that I’m not making this up, get thee down to thy local grocery shoppe and get thyself one of these passionate purples of cauliflower and enjoy the hearty goodness of antioxidants without the brain killing alcohol of red wine. Not that I make any guarantees about the antioxidant strength or worthiness of the purple cauliflower, because I have no idea. But, you can eat all you want and not get drunk. So, you can still drive home afterwards.

Or operate heavy machinery.

Or get on Facebook without worrying about what kind of drunken messages you’ll leave your ex.

You’re on your own if you make purple cauliflower wine though…
