Pink Saturday - May 15, 2010

Happy Pink Saturday!

This week we have one hundred eighty-six (186) participants in Pink Saturday.  There are nine new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list.  Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday.  All participants are listed in the order in which they began participating.

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 and talented people.  Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.

Remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST Friday.  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.

Reminder - We have a weekly challenge for you to visit the blog of at least one participant that you have never visited before.  Then next Saturday include that blog and a link in your post.  Quite a few of you have been done this challenge, and have met some of the great Pink Saturday participants.  Thank you for sharing with us.

****************************

Be certain to remember our 2nd Birthday Celebration coming soon - May 29.

I am certain there will be balloons and cakes.

And, I will be having a Pink giveaway !!!

I hope everyone will post so we will have a large turnout.

My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday is to share this request I received from one of our Pink Saturday participants.

Comment:

Hey Bev...tomorrow I'm posting about Simone @ The Bottom of the Ironing Basket running for breast cancer, and asking my readers for their support in sponsoring her. Will you please help me with this? None of us are untouched by this tragic cancer as we all know someone who has been diagnosed. I wouldn't usually do this, but I think it's important. Simone is a beautiful, brilliant young mother who creates the most wonderful blogs. Thanks, Marsha

Thank you to Marsha for sharing this special you woman with all of us, and for sharing this opportunity to support pink.  The meaning of hope and love is what Pink Saturday is all about.♥  Please visit Simone Runs For The Cure.

You know this is the time of year for roses in our garden.  This week I am sharing Kordes Perfecta.  I hope you don't get bored with my roses.

I love these Pick Saturdays. Your roses are beautiful, some little varmint got to the roots of my rose bushes so I really don't think I am going to have to many roses this year. I am sharing with everyone some of my vintage pink loves.

[jeanne]

Good morning Beverly, love those beautiful roses. When is the photo competition for your roses? I would never get tired of seeing your gorgeous roses.

We have another long day ahead today. At least shopping antique malls is easier the an outdoor extravaganza. No wind and sun. I am sunburned a bit.

Have a wonderful day.
Love you, Jeanne

[Grace P]

Beautiful photo and beautiful roses! Such simple perfection. Thank you for hosting another Pink Saturday! SO much fun. Grace xoxo

[Denise]

Good Morning Bev...Thank you for hosting HPS.I love your roses a lovely way to start my day.Sun is back up here but still cool ,we have not had spring in a long time in Mass.I saw Beachplum roses in bloom on the dunes I will have to get photos.

[karen cox]

Dear Bev,
Such beautiful roses, I love pink roses. Spring in Massachusetts has been quite confusing...one day we have cool fall-like weather, the next day we have unseasonably warm days. The gardens are blooming though, I guess the flowers have be be hardy to survive the cold days. Roses have not bloomed yet, but soon. Happy Pink Saturday.
Karen

[Natasha]

I love nothing more than looking at pictures of roses and trying to take pictures of roses!

Thanks for having me again and I hope you have a beautiful weekend.

Best wishes,
Natasha.

WHAT??? Get tired of roses???? Never in a million years, could I ever get tired of looking at roses!!!! Yours are always so beautiful and perfect and a great inspiration to work harder at mine!
Happy Pink Saturday.....Jil

[Jennifer Scull]

your roses are truly a thing of beauty! I could never ever grow tired of them!

[Jorgelina]

Happy Pink Saturday Beverly.
Happy weekend!

[Angie Chamorro]

Happy Saturday y'all! I am a little behind today due to computer issues but the Geek Squad just left my house my we are back in business. Looking forward to everyone's Pink Saturday Post!

[dana]

Happy Pink Saturday, Beverly!! Those roses look like the ones growing at our gym. Last Friday, after class, Marian and I(WITH PERMISSION) snipped six of the beautiful blooms and took them home to enjoy. Actually, they were open and the weather was predicted to be stormy (and it was). We figured they'd last longer at our homes than on the bush. The fragrance was incredible!

It is such a good thing for us to support breast cancer awareness fundraisers---there are so many avenues available for us to do that. Good luck to Simone and her team.

Hope you have a super-duper day! L, dana

[The Happy Homemaker]

Happy Pink Saturday, Beverly! Your roses are BEAUTIFUL! Mine are just starting to bud, so hopefully pretty soon I'll be able to share some of mine, too. Thank you for hosting such a fabulous event!!! xo -Louise

[CollectInTexas Gal]

I never tire of Roses, however, my Roses are getting tired and are suffering from DDDS. Yep it's a Rose flaw that happens in Texas....maybe elsewhere...don't see any of it on your beautiful roses. Hope they are spared awhile longer. Thanks for Pink Saturday and all that you do and share. You know how much I love it and YOU!

[Tobi Britton]

HPS Miss Beverly!
What lovely Roses you have! All I have is a bunch of buds, and one tiny pink rose. The buds will be a future Pink Saturday post I am sure!
Sparkly Hugs,
Tobi and the Pixies!

[Susan Freeman]

Happy Pink Saturday Beverly!! There is no way I could get tired of looking at your roses. First of all, they are so beautiful and secondly, it's just started to warm up here and I don't have any roses blooming yet. Seeing your roses is a treat! Thank you again for hosting such a fun event every Saturday!!

Love,
Susan and Bentley

Hi Beverly

Gorgeous roses - so the weather must be balmy in your part of the world! Here, it's sunny - then rainy, or just dull and grey. Never know what it's going to do next, or what clothes to wear! Happy Pink Saturday and have a lovely weekend.

[Jill at buckscountyfolkart.blogspot.com]

Hi Beverly,

[bj]

Pretty roses. I do believe this is the YEAR OF THE ROSE...all of them out here in West Texas are just magnificent. Lots of rains and snows thru the winter and spring have just made them glorious. I am sharing my coral roses on my blog today...as well as PINK RIBBON posting.
xo bj

[Jenn Raley]

Happy Pink Saturday!Bored w/your roses? No, absolutely. I love my little odds and ends of roses (I think they're called knock out roses?) and they thrilled me this year w/so many blooms. Your roses are spectacular and you've apparently cultivated them thoroughly. I thoroughly enjoy them! Thank you!

[Vickie]

Congrats on the magazine article! Your roses are gorgeous, I never get
tired or bored looking at roses! Happy Pink Saturday!
