is it wear purple with a red hat?
or wear red with a purple hat?
I can never remember!
I just looked it up with Google. It's red hat with purple clothes. I've never been to one, but I've heard a couple of people talk about it. A lady in line ahead of me once at Walmart was buying red hats and talking to the cashier about it.
Brynne:
Awww so we all need to exchange our purple hats for red, then.
I kind of liked the purple, too...

Says who? We'll just start our own society, The Purple Hat Society!
Brynne:
Yeah! Me likey that idea!
witch:
Oops. I like purple so much it must have been wishful thinking.
Warning
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick the flowers in other people's gardens
And learn to spit.
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.
