PINK SATURDAY


Pink Saturday, is graciously hosted by Beverly, at How Sweet the Sound. Be sure to visit Beverly's beautiful blog to see a complete list of all the participants in today's Pink Saturday.


We're getting close to October, which is National Breast
Cancer Awareness Month. You'll soon be seeing pink ribbons--the symbol of support for breast cancer awareness and research--just about everywhere, and you can create a few of your own with the Pink Ribbon Cookie Kit. The kit includes everything you need to make dozens of pink ribbon cookies: not only does it offer a cookie cutter, but it also has sugar cookie mix, icing, pink food coloring, and pink sprinkles. King Arthur, the company behind the Pink Ribbon Cookie Kit, is known for selling great cookie mixes that are just as easy to roll and cut as homemade cookie dough--and the final product tastes pretty great, too.
The Pink Ribbon Cookie Kit allows you to support breast cancer research in another way: King Arthur donates 10 percent of the proceeds from the sale of the kit to foundations that raise funds both for breast cancer research and patient outreach. King Arthur does have other cookie-making kits available, but those kits do not support such a great cause. The kit is priced at $19.95.



I just love to eat sugar cookies with a good hot cup of coffee.....



Lucy (AKA as Dish Dog) and I enjoying the few last days of Summer.....
Now you have a great reason to go eat your cookies....

I am having a-give-away to celebrate my 1 month Blogoversary.... so come on over and check it out... We will picking a winner Late Monday night , and posting the results then...Have a wonderful Pink week and I hope to see you all back here next week...

    Hi Julie, love your cookies and your pink hat. Your dog is so handsome. Here in the mountains summer is pretty much finished. The leaves are already starting to turn.

    Enjoy it while you can.

    Those cookies really do look great. On the topic of breast cancer awareness, I invite you to check out this video -- ahamoment.com/pg/moments/view/6789 -- about a very special woman's "aha moment" that led her to literally walk around the world for the cause. I think you'll enjoy it and find her story very inspirational.

    All the best,

    Those cookies look yummy. I will have to look for that breast cancer kit.
    Your pool looks even more inviting than the cookies though. I can't wait for cooler weather.
    Enjoy your weekend!

    What a fabulous idea....that cookie kit. For some reason I am the world's worst sugar cookie dough maker. I gave up years ago trying. Love the photo of you in the pool. Happy Belated Pink Saturday.

    What a great idea this cookie kit is. I lose a Grandmother to breast cancer 15 years ago, so the pink ribbon holds a special significance to me. Happy belated pink Saturday and congratulations on your one month anniversary.
