Pink Saturday #12

I had to do some searching to find pink for a Pink Saturday post. I did not want to miss out. So searching I went around the house. I decided to check the kitchen and see what I had that was pink. And yes, I found some pink!!
First up are this clips to hold bags closed. You know maybe a bag of chips so they won't get stale or something. Well, one of these clips is pink. Actually I have two pink ones, but one is in use right now and I didn't take a picture of that.
I continued my search of the drawers and what do you know, a pink box of tea. This one is Strawberry and Vanilla. That sounds very pinky.

Then I have a box of straws. So those stripes look kind of pink to me. I use one everyday in my lunch at work.
Have you ever tried this Mr. Clean Magic Eraser? I use them to clean my patio furniture in the Spring when we want to have a clean place to sit outside. I also use them to clean newsprint and other strange black marks on my counters. Works great!
Next I check out the fridge. Nothing in there, but in the freezer on the other hand. We still have some of these Skinny Cow Skinny Dippers. Yum yum yummy!
Next up are things in the pantry. Yep I have some pink in there. Here is some instant tea that you pour into a water bottle. Part of the box is pink.
This Emergen-C box has lots of pink. We drink these when we feel like we need an extra boost of Vitamin C.
Here is some Chicken of the Sea Pink Salmon. Okay the word "Pink" is in there. Even the word "Water Chestnuts" looks pink.
Ooo La La! Look what we have here!! Ghiraredelli Chocolate Squares. There is some pink on the packaging. But when you open the wrapper to eat the yummy Peppermint Bark, the sprinkles of peppermint are pink.
Next I check out more cupboards. Here are some chocolate flavored DECORS for cupcakes and whatnot. The wrapper is pink for sure.
These two bowls were in my Godmother's things. The only two. I often wonder if she had a bigger set originally. But one of them is pink! We sometimes eat ice cream in these bowls.
Recognize these Tupperware cups. I have several sets of different sizes. They each have at least one pink cup in the set.
On my non-working over the stove microwave I have this pink flower magnet from Hawaii. A co-worker gave it to me after her trip to Hawaii.
Looking up, that old Diamond Crytal Shaker is pink. Those are in my soffit area.

And then in the family room, this box of Kleenex is pink! So yay, I found some pink things in unlikely places. Who knows what I will come up with for next week.
Thank you to Beverly from How Sweet the Sound for hosting this fun Pink Saturday! You can click on the pink doll in my side bar to find more people posting for Pink Saturday! Have fun!

Hey Nea, I haven't participated in Pink Saturdays because I thought I didn't have much pink stuff. I can't believe how much you found, and like Dana, you have succeeded in making me hungry!!! AND then I see your "salivate for Starbucks" blinky and I'm thinking frappucino and a bagel????!!!! We may just go out for breakfast!!! LOL ;)
Thanks for the wake-up smile!!
Becky

Linnea, you have a lot of pink in your house, I am really impressed. Perhaps I should count how many pink I have... I really like your Kleenex box. Is it an original box or you put a usual box in that pretty box? I almost forgot, thank you for visiting my blog yesterday. I really like it when someone left me a comment. Have a good Pink Saturday.
