It's time for Pink Saturday

This will be a quiet Pink Saturday with 1 gorgeous dinner and one super gorgeous cake carrier! Sorry I don't have more pink for you but I burned my hand on the grill Friday while experimenting baking bread outside. The bread turned out fabulously but I can only type a very slow one-handed hunt and peck for a few days.

I made a scrumptious dinner the other night, Filet Mignon with Blackberries. It was just delicious! Notice the gorgeous medium rare pink of a perfectly cooked Rib Eye steak. I did not think the dish was going to be quite so good otherwise I would have bought a bottle of wine too! It's a very easy recipe and went together rather quickly too. Please click here if you'd like to copy the recipe.

I rarely ever make layered cakes but I sure have a gorgeous cake carrier whenever I do! I bought this beauty during a particular bad week during our renovation project. Every once in a while I had to reward myself with something spectacular. I knew the minute I saw this on Ebay it had to be mine.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog for Pink Saturday and please visit Miss Beverly of How Sweet the Sound and see what the other Pinksters are up to!

And don't forget our Pink Saturday motto:

Get Pink !!!
It's not just a color, it's an attitude.

You always make me want to come to your house. The dinner looks delicious.

Now, about that cake carrier. I think it is the prettiest one I've ever seen. You know, yellow is my favorite color.

Country Wings in Phoenix said...: Lovely Post. I guess the pink would be your burnt hand this week. You should have taken pics of your bandage. I am going to try this recipe, sounds so delish. I have signed up to follow your BLOG. I hope you will pop over and do the same, and maybe I can inspire you in some small way. COuntry Hugs, Sherry; July 4, 2009 at 11:10 PM

fairiemoon said...: Your dinner made my mouth water! Especially the corn. It looks so tender and buttery and delicious. We are anxiously awaiting corn season....It is one of our favorite summer things! We did have corn yesterday, but it didn't get cooked long enough.

Happy Fourth of July and Pink Saturday, both of them!!!
