1. Everything Prince- His signature color was purple. While I like Prince, I have a dear friend that loves him. She has a lot of health and personal struggles. Everything with him and the color purple brings a lot of peace, joy and sanity to her life... which helps give us more her in our lives.
2. My junior prom dress- It's been ages, but it was one of those classic late 80s/early 90s dresses covered with sequins and beaded flowers. It may be extremely dated, but I still look at it and love it.
3. The purple drink- With Fat Tuesday tomorrow, I can't help but think of the Voodoo Daquiri at Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop. The building dates back to the early 1700s and sits in a quiet part of Bourbon Street. It's a great place to stop and relax after getting past all of the iconic and chaotic portions of Bourbon. Their famous purple Voodoo Daquiri is a must.
