5th Annual Power of Pink Challenge
Five years ago, I was a new blogger who wanted to find a way to help promote Breast Cancer Awareness during the month of October for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I came up with the Power of Pink Challenge to as a way to encourage fellow bloggers, bakers, and readers to think a bit during October about Breast Cancer Awareness.
I’m excited to announce that today kicks off the 5th Annual Power of Pink Challenge! The challenge is simple. Make something PINK. Everyone who participates will be entered in the giveaway I’m hosting as part of the Power of Pink Challenge (details below).
As you all know, breast cancer is a disease that has touched my life in more ways that I would like to admit. I have made it a personal goal of mine to try to make a difference in this front.
I have been saving pink recipes as I see them come up throughout the year. If you’d like to check out some inspiration, Click Here
Here are the rules for the challenge:
– Make something that is pink – use any ingredients you want
– The post much be a new post that is published in October of 2012
– Post your pink food by Midnight EST on October 31

– Email me at Jen[at]beantownbaker[dot]com – include:

As always, I’m offering a giveaway along with the challenge to one lucky participant. This year I will be choosing one of the participants at random and making a $100 donation to a charity of their choice. It can be breast cancer related or not.

What a great cause, and congratulations for completing the DC walk!

Thanks! It’s definitely been a fun journey so far – I can’t wait for Charlotte in October.
If you ever come to Colorado for the Avon walk….let me know. I love reading your blog…and I would love to cook for you. I have tried soooo many of your wonderful ideas. 🙂 Have a blessed day!

Aww, that’s so sweet. They actually stopped doing the Rocky Mountain walk this year! I guess too many people were in the medical tent because of the altitude. I’m bummed because that’s one that I was the most looking forward to…
so amazing jen!! hope your blisters are on their way to healing and you’ve had some rest, you deserve it 🙂

Thanks 🙂 My blisters are all healed. The medical staff on the walks does an amazing job. Stairs are still somewhat painful for me, but it’s not too bad. I work on the 4th floor and today was the first day I climbed up instead of taking the elevator. I’m almost back to 100% though.
Well done, Jen! One more week and we (me, Sherri, Trudi, AnnMarie & Diana) will be heading into Boston for the AWBC! We’ll be at Quick Stop A again this year. It looks like our crew will be walking in D.C. next year. It’s a great weekend!!

Wonderful cause 🙂 Love these photos!

Whenever, there will be any unwanted movement, the device will alert
you and the concerned authority so that necessary actions can be taken on time.
Many high-grade security cameras are attached
with a communication device that warns the criminals over a loudspeaker.
If you fix CCTv devices at various corners, there won’t be any need for extra on-site security guard.
Security guards work for a particular shift, and if you want your residence or office to
be protected all the time, you have to appoint more than one guard on shift basis.
So, there is no need to be present in your hoe or office to check what
is going on in your property. Manual guards may take time to initiate an action whenever there is
an emergency.
