Have you chased Father Nelson out of your wardrobe yet?

Looks like Raymar has a pretty good handle on what it politically correct.. I know I like the lighter colors and my woodwork in Natural tone with clear poly on it. I love light blues and tans. Look how I dress, my favorite shirt color is Red..

I have a light blue "accent" wall in one room and a orangish one in another,

it's a pleasant effect.

That's just one wall out of four!

Looking at the photo again I realize this is the kitchen, They took out the microwave and left a hood.

My daughter just redid my kitchen in sand tile floor, White washed wood cabinets with glass doors, stainless steel sink and surround, white appliances, and butcher block countertops.

The light tile floor, and the Stainless steel show all the spills, drips, and splashes. The white appliances and the butcher block counters that I thought would be hard to keep clean looking are actually the easiest to keep looking good.

You never paint kitchens blue. It attracts flies. Yellow shades repel them.

Only at night

Please remind this old man who Father Nelson was.

White base with a "hint a' magenta" or orchid, I'd say. Besides "hint a' magenta" always sounds cool too.

Right now, I'm staying in a house with red carpeting... -and I'm getting so sick of always vacuuming and/or always seeing crumbs and stuff on the floor. The walls are an off-white with outlines of where all kinds of pictures -tons of them, had stayed put for the last five to ten years. I think you probably should take into account about the kinds of pictures or decor you're going to put up too. The more the amount of pictures, the lighter the wall should be but there are lots of other factors too.
