The challenge is looking for a very specific response, but you've made it be a little different and so the challenge is not accepting it. The error message gives you clue:

Bummer: AssertionError: ' blue ' not found in 'I love the color_blue blue' : Make sure you print out 'The color blue is my favorite!'

Try making sure the output is exactly what the challenge is expecting (including no extra spaces).
