Make Mine Pink



It's no secret, I love pink! It is much more versatile than most people think. Pink can be soft and feminine and it can be bold and strong. Mush like the female persona it so often represents. Did you know that pink was actually used by Victorians to represent "boys" because it was the stronger color when compared to light blue? I don't know when that changed but someone smart figured-out which gender deserved the stronger color. I'm just sayin'...

Make mine pink,

That Touch of Pink


It's 106' outside. All the grass and plants are turning brown and all the humans I know are well, tired and hot. My solution? Staying inside under the ceiling fan with a cool glass of raspberry tea, some good movies and the mini-pearls to snuggle with.
I ran across this wonderful room with the perfect touch of pink. What do you think? I am loving the whimsy of the birds in the chandelier. A hot pink living room... I wonder if Mr. P would go for this in the new house? I let you know on that one! In the meantime, stay cool!

Puttin' on the Pink








Today is a special day. Today I am attending Puttin' on the Pink. This is a luncheon to honor those who are courageously fighting the fight against breast cancer, remember those who have lost the fight and raise awareness and funding to move forward into the future and find a cure! This is a cause that is close to my heart and I wish it wasn't. My dear cousin, Paula, lost her fight with the disease a couple of years ago at thirty-nine. Paula fought fearlessly for six years against this disease. My cousin, Keri, is a survivor but it wasn't easy. I am now on my knees praying for my sweet friends, Amy, Alicia and Kay. These three women have been diagnosed within the last couple of months. They have strapped-on their pink, boxing gloves and are prepared to fight to the finish and good health!

Today I am "puttin' on my pink" and going to spend a lovely afternoon with some very special friends but I hope that my message isn't too sugar-coated... I encourage everyone to perform self-exams and get your mammograms! Support those around you and don't take their presence in your life for granted. I am praying for my dear friends and readers, too. You are all special.

Take care of yourselves and your ta-ta's!
