One of them went wild.A strange orange not common that i am aware of.It changed colors over 12 hours,after it cooled down.It was pinkish purple when i took it out of the sand this morning.Where did the orange come from

Pretty cool. That looks so good you could eat.

Color chart says apricot

Yum! Isn't it odd that it was pinkish purple out of the oven, but cooled to apricot? That seems quite a change even though close of the color charts.

Either i am getting old or those heated corals were changing colors Pat.Well this time i asked wife what color it is and she put it on the back of my cold hand-she called it cold flesh colored.Well,i went out to take pictures 10-12 hours later and the color changed,she agreed.
Yeah! not going crazy.Do you think apricot fits?

Too red for the apricots we have (Blenheim). Looks more like a blood orange. Beautiful color no matter what it's called.

Here's a link to blood oranges:

I see the color Pat.It is the color.That must be a California orange.They are prettier than Florida oranges,and of course Florida oranges taste better than California oranges:>
