The Power of Pink!
It’s back! The Power of Pink Challenge! I started this challenge last year as a way to promote Breast Cancer Awareness. It seems that now everyone knows someone who has been affected by breast cancer. In honor of October being National Breast Cancer Awareness month, I present this challenge to you:
make something PINK
It can be anything as long as it’s pink. While you’re doing it, think of the people in your life who have been affected by this disease. Do your monthly self-exam or your mammogram. This disease can be beaten especially with early detection and increased awareness.
Here are the rules:
1. Make something, anything, that comes out pink – use any ingredients you want (you can double this up for another Breast Cancer blogging event if you’d like, but it does need to be a new post)
2. Post your pink food by Midnight EST on October 31
3. Include the logo and link back to this post in your post
4. Email me at Jen[at]beantownbaker[dot]com – include:
– Your name and location (city/state/country)
– Name of your blog
– Link to your post
– Picture (or permission to pull one out of your post)
If you don’t have a blog and would like to participate, just send me your information as well as the recipe used and I will post it here for you.
As an added bonus, I will be providing one lucky participant with some fun pink kitchen gear. I will choose a participant at random (using Random.org) to win this prize package: The Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book Celebrating the Promise AND Pink Kitchenaid measuring cup/spoon set (sorry international readers, prize is only valid for US shipping addresses).
Oh yum! Those look terrific. Congratulations on a successful first challenge and welcome to the Daring Bakers. Great job 🙂

Nice job! Love the step by step photos!
See yeast is not as scary as you though it was, huh?
Congratulations on your first challenge. All of your goodies look wonderful!!
You did such a wonderful job on your first challenge!! Especially with accidentally adding the larger amount of potatoes.
I loved your step by step photos and your bread looks divine. Great job in telling the yeast who’s boss !!
Your bread looks great. I loved your post…funny and detailed! You succeeded with using yeast – great job! Congrats on your first DB challenge!
Hey, your breads look great! Thank goodness your first challenge with us wasn’t baked yeast jello … gross. Anyway, your rolls especially look nice and tender torn in half, just crying for butter. Job well done!
Congrats on your first challenge! Carrying heavy baking ingredients lets you burn calories so you can enjoy your creations! Yippee!
Your bread turned out perfect! and the pictorial post is an added bonus! Super first challenge!
Glad you showed that yeast who is boss!
Nice job and good for you for getting right to it!

Congratulations and welcome. It lookw from here like you successfully tamed the yeast beast! And thanks for the measuring-cup-in-the-colander tip!
your bread looks great, your slashes on the loaf are so perfect!
I must say, for someone who is fearful of yeast you really came out on top and produced both a stellar loaf and rolls. Great job!
Welcome to the DBers!
