Light magenta does count. You got lots of nice colors going on in that photo. You might even be able to take first place for sharpest dresed at the annual Growers Ball on Vancouver Island. Cheers!
I remember making them, being persuaded to eat one (I didn't want to) and proceeding to vomit. I remember exactly where we lived, and we were only there in 91-92.
After that incident, they remained in the dinner rotation, but no one tried to make me eat them. ;)
In some ways it does seem a million years ago, in others it seems more like last week. :P
