because when you’re in a car your options are severely limited

because it took them a loooong time

was that it was brown

and while i will admit that it’s closer to peach
it sure is a far cry closer to pink than brown
at least to my eyes

  1. mmm…maybe in the box of 463 colors but in this house we only have the box of 24 and bologna is not one of those colors…i do think we might have a macaroni and cheese orange though

  2. Bologna is clearly pink. And I think you should write to the Crayola company and ask them to please put a bologna crayon into production.
