Can we find bliss eating cuppy♥cakes & celebrating Pink Saturday by not trying on bathing suits?

My gosh, PINK SATURDAY has rushed at us again. It seems like my days are just zooming by with weeks and months seeming like dreams. First, and always, a big thanks to Beverly over at How Sweet the Sound who is hostess to this wonderful, pink-a-licious event each week.

This week I don't really have a theme or method to my madness. I just walked around, found something funny or cute or sweet that I wanted to share and told it to smile as I snapped its photo. Most of the items came from my dining room with one that kinda moves from room to room as my mood changes.

Bliss...something all of us seek at one time or another. Bliss can be very elusive...and is often fleeting. The pink roses are something I asked the artist to add for me as they are all over my home, peeking at you from door knobs, on walls, nestled in the folds of fabric and, especially, in my summer gardens that surround the house.

Another cutie pie from my dining room are these sweet, but no-calorie cuppy♥cakes that I purchased from a local crafter. I just love them with their tiny bows and little sparklies here and there. Light as air, just as we hope all of our cuppy♥cakes to be, they rest on a shelf that holds some of my very dearest treasures...some that I will share with you in the weeks to come.

I wasn't too sure if I'd share something as plain and regular with you as Easter basket grass, but I just love this stuff. When I found it I was just thrilled, if you can imagine a grown woman being thrilled over shredded paper, but I sure was because, of course, it's pink but also because it isn't plastic or cellophane. It's paper. Just regular, ordinary paper. I like the simplicity and the very soft coloration. I bought all they had (I'm compulsive about pink) and realized that I had way more than one person could use in a life-time so listed the rest in my Etsy shop and on eBay.

This clock caught my eye several summer's ago at an arts and crafts fair on the Sainte Mary's River where I live in northern Michigan. After a time, it ended up on my dining room wall along with my "bliss". Luckily, I have a very large dining room with high ceilings to hold all of the goodies I bring in the back door. I have a well used hammer that follows me around whenever I get that, "Now where am I going to hang this?", look on my face.

I'm sharing again the darling pillow sent to me by my PAY IT FORWARD partner, Jennifer. If you'd like to know more about this event, please read my blog entry directly below. Lots of interest, but not many takers...hmmm, too busy, or just not wanting the obligation...don't know.


And, last, but not least...this little gal, who makes me chuckle each and every time I read her billboard reminding me that I shouldn't have eaten that second cookie or helped myself to that larger-than-normal serving of double-dutch chocolate cake. Usually I really do breathe a sigh of relief because there is no way I want to be trying on bathing suits right now...at least not for a couple of months. And my hair...it might not be pink but there have been mornings when the birdie and I have a LOT in common!

Remember, be sure visit as many Pink Saturday participants as you can today and throughout the weekend. I am always so amazed at what is shared each week.
