Let's have some pink cake. Doesn't it look divine?!
I know it looks small, but don't worry.
There is plenty for all of us.
Here's the recipe just in case you want to bake one yourself.
And of course, we must have pink balloons.

I can hardly believe that it has been one year since we started sharing Pink Saturday. My first Pink Post was April 12, 2008, and the first day others started posting with me was May 31, 2008. The first two participants were Donna at Donna's - In The Attic and Jeanne at Backyard Neighbor. Here is a link to that post. The second week there were an additional twelve new participants, and it has continued to grow and grow. Here is a link to the second week post. Just look where we are now. At some time there have been 442 different people that have participated in Pink Saturday.
Here is the picture I shared in my first Pink Post, and here is a link to the post in case you would like to read it.
This week we have two hundred twenty-three (223) participants in Pink Saturday. There are ten new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list. Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday.
This week we have a special guest participant. It is my son! Holy cow! I can't believe it!!! I think I probably talk his ear off sharing all of the cool things about Pink Saturday. So, he surprised me by saying he would do a post to celebrate our one year. His post in a thought-provoking perspective on the color pink and the impact of Pink Saturday. His blog is about the game Magic, and he creatively spins his review to tie to the game. He is a wonderful support to me, and I would appreciate you going by and saying hello.

Please take the time to visit other participants, and leave a comment to let them know you stopped by to enjoy their pink. Pink Saturday is about having fun, and giving us a chance to meet others in the blogging community. I promise you it is worth the effort because you will not only see lots of pink, you will meet incredibly nice people. Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.
Please remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST yesterday. If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.
I want to thank those of you that take the time to leave me a comment. I love reading what you all have to say.
And, now for all of you that have made Pink Saturday something wonderful!!!
Here are our Pink Saturday participants:

I hope everyone has fun with Pink Saturday.
Even if you couldn't participate today, be sure to go visit those who
did, and leave them a comment so they will know you visited.
Get Pink !!!
It's not just a color, it's an attitude.
You are welcome to use the Pink Saturday button to display on your blog. I've been spotting it on quite a few of your blogs. Do you have yours yet?
Pink Saturday is fun.

Hi Beverly
With all the busyness of getting ready for my porch party I forgot to come by and say congratulations on a year of Pink Saturdays! That is quite an accomplishment! Did you have any idea that it would get to be so popular? Isn't it amazing how many blogs have joined in the fun!
You're the hostess with the mostess!
Hugs, Rhondi

A very happy first anniversary, and may there be many more. Big apologies for belated Pink Saturday wishes - I was laid low healthwise earlier this week, just about recovering, so waaay behind in my visits. I'll be doing double duty this weekend, promise! Meantime, love that cake! So pretty.
