Pink Saturday

Today is my first posting for Pink Saturday. I love the color pink and I couldn't wait to join. Every Saturday morning I get my coffee and while everyone in the house is asleep I settle down and look through lots of the Pink Saturday postings.. and now I finally get to join in the fun!
Recently we went to the Russian grocery store here and I saw such cute varieties of pink I knew I had to share them with yall.

These greeting cards are so cute.... I love the writing...and of course, the pink!
If you have ever been to a Russian candy store you know about the candy!
So many different varieties.....
And all so good! They seem to disappear into thin air as soon as we get them home!
Please stop by Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. You will find so many more wonderful pink postings!

    Those are very pretty cards. I have never heard of Russian stores. I live in Texas, but not in your lovely area. Next time I am down you way, I will look this store up. Nice pink showing.

    April,

    What a fun Pink Saturday post. I've never seen Russian candies. And that's a big deal for me since I am a sugar-aholic. The pictures are wonderful.

    Congrats on your first Pink Saturday. Have a great weekend.
