Power of Pink Roundup and a Winner!
First, I’d like to thank everyone who participated in the Power of Pink Challenge this year. I know breast cancer has touched many of our lives. I’m hoping that this challenge has helped to raise awareness of this disease.
On a related note, I am starting training for the Avon Walk today. A good friend of mine offered to sign up to walk 39.3 miles over two days with me at some time next year. If you remember, Hubby and I were on the crew for the Boston Avon Walk this past year. In 2010, my friend A and I will be walking and our Hubbies will be on the crew. I’m sure I will be talking more about the walk over the next few months. It’s going to be an adventure for sure!
But now back to the challenge. Here are the submissions that I got throughout the month.
CB from I heart Cuppycakes made Lemon Angel Food Cupcakes with Strawberry Swiss Meringue Buttercream
Kris from A Baker’s Remix made Breast Cancer cakes
Dorothy from Fuzzykoala’s Caketastic Adventures made A Pink Pumpkin Spice Cake
Jelli from Jelli Bean Journals made Vanilla Cupcakes with Pink Frosting
Romina from Sweetened with Love made Pink Ribbon Cupcakes and Cookies
Kathleen from Kat’s Kitchen Place made Cowgirl Cookies
Erin from Milk & Honey made Chocolate Pinks
Claudia from Highlowaha made Double D’s cake pops
Brianne from Sweet Cheeks made Into the Pink Pretzels
Yudith from Blissfully Delicious made Pink Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes
Xiaolu from 6 Bittersweets made Redless Velvet Cupcakes with Pink Frosting
Stefany from Proceed with Caution made Think Pink Cheesecake
And I made chocolate pink M&M cookies
Thanks again everyone for participating in the challenge. And now it’s time for the fun part! Choosing the winner. I did it the old-fashioned way this time. I cut up little pieces of paper, wrote names on each piece and threw them in a hat. I had Hubby draw a name out of that hat.
And the winner of this fabulous prize is…
…Kris! Congratulations!!
Please email me your address and I will get your prize out as soon as possible.

Oh my God! Oh.My.God. I have been looking for a strawberry chocolate chip ice cream forever!! Actually thought about making it myself.
Never tried Graeter’s but I love a good ol’ vanilla ice cream
Facebook follower of Graeter’s!
I love that you moved from Cincy to Boston… becuase I moved from Boston to Cincy! Haha. I do plan on returning to Boston at some point, but for now I can be happy walking 10 minutes to the Graeter’s shop near me. 🙂
Anyway, my favorite flavor is… well… a tie between black raspberry chip (duh) and toffee chip. Yum!
They all look so good, but I think I would try mint chocolate chip!
I love dessert hybrids, so blueberry pie would be what I would order at Graeters!
OOOOh Ice Cream. I love ice cream. I would want to try the caramel flavor (I’m in the middle of an obsession)!
