Where the example shows "[YOUR FAVORITE COLOR]" with all capitals in the brackets, they don't mean you should put those words there, but instead you should cause the contents of the variable you created in step 1 to generate what is actually output.

If you don't remember how to output using the contents of a variable, you might want to review the Variables video starting at time index 8:00.
