I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong in task 2 of this challenge. I feel like I have everything formatted right.

Challenge 2 is messing me up and I cannot get past it. I will go back to the video and try and see what I am missing.

using_variables.py 
favorite_color = ('blue')

The color ['favorite_color'] is my favorite!

print("The color", favorite_color, "is my favorite!")

thanks Stephen. I went back and watched the video too and right away found my mistake. I'm okay with making mistakes though, I'm learning!
