Another Pink Saturday (in Charleston area)

I believe it is the second year anniversary at Beverly's Pink Saturday!!!!!
Photobucket

It is a special Pink Saturday at Beverly's this week. Since we are in the Charleston area on a brief vacation I decided to show touches of pink in the area. Below--cottage on Sullivan's Island.
I am Minkey, of course ,and I love the Shem Creek area--the trees are grand
I had time for a zip line ride in the backyard.
Beach fun with Zephir too---My excuse for showing these photos is my pink in my hat and necklace of course!

Pink skies on the Creek

Fort Sumter is behind us in the above picture--where the civil war began.
The College of Charleston has its own pinks.
The shutters above were more pink than this photo showed!
A sorority house below
Pink kniting shop above



Magnolias--a wonderful place to have lunch in Charleston--waiters in fancy clothes.....
Espresso for me and Zephir!
I loved this colorful pink in the shop above. Notice the contrast with the green umbrella--we hit a downpour and Nannykim had to RUN IN THE RAIN BAREFOOT ON KING STREET!! She got soaked, but us monkeys faired better in the back pack!




Just had to sneak another picture of us in here.

The house above is selling for 1,999,999 dollars!! Yup almost 2 million--this is not a cheap part of town!





Adios and a happy pink celebration at Beverly's

Rednesday Wednesday

It is Rednesday here: http://suelovescherries.blogspot.com/2010/05/rednesday_18.html So I am sharing a few glimpses of red. Below is an old tray with red bakelite (sp?) handles--I love it and it speaks to me! We use this a lot.


The boxes above just speak happiness to me.


The red and white table above is in my kitchen. I have moved the paper towel since I took this pic last week! I have a basket there and on top of the microwave now. That tray is no longer there---always moving things ;-)



I love the soft patina of worn old books. These are some books from childhood and most are classics. They have a very soft red, some are blue and some green. Have a blessed day!

Teacup Tuesday and what not


It is tea cup Tuesday here: http://www.marthasfavorites.com/2010/05/tea-cup-tuesday-no-12.html Quite a while back I purchased these cups below from Rosanna, in Seattle Wa. I took this pic with my webcam camera so beware!


They arrived in this nifty box!


Now they sit atop my mantel area here:


I love these cups because they are dishwasher safe and microwavable (not that I have a dishwasher!)



I also like them because they are super colorful and hold a lot!



So I am sharing these for Tea cup Tuesday. Also, a blogger somewhere told us about the book below and I have found it to be lots of fun!


One thing she mentioned is that if you have old plates that you are afraid of eating off of---perhaps you don't want to damage them or you are afraid of lead..........




Then you can place a glass plate on top and still see the plate underneath! I have seen people use this for paper plates, but hadn't thought about using it on top of real plates. I like this---then I don't have to fear the lead content!
