Off to Market Recap: Pink Kitchen

partysugar — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 09:15:49 -0700

Pink is my favorite color. Call me crazy, but if I had to marry a color, it would be pink. Since it's Breast Cancer Awareness month, I thought it would be a great time to pack my kitchen with pink! Lots of companies are selling pink kitchen tools or pink linens with proceeds that go towards the cure.

Since I love the idea of getting pink kitchen supplies while doing something good for the world, I asked you to help me find the most fabulous pink kitchen supplies. You bookmarked your discoveries in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag Pink Kitchen. There was an amazing selection of all things pink, from rolling pins to onion goggles.

I loved the 48-piece pink food storage set, but my favorite find was this pink crystal wine cooler. A girl after my own heart, aimeeb says it's something "every girl needs"! Thanks to everyone who participated! If you are interested in pinking out your kitchen, browse below for ideas.

Carry Your Lunch in a Tote for the Cure

partysugar — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 01:15:17 -0700

With more and more people using canvas tote bags to transport goods home from the grocery store, it's only natural that this concept would carry over to brown paper bag lunches. Instead of packing your lunch in a paper or plastic baggie, pack it in a reusable tote, like the fashionable ones pictured at right.

Created by Lean Cuisine in partnership with the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation, these lunchbox bags are good for the environment and help fight breast cancer. For every purchase of one of the insulated $9.95 lunchboxes, Lean Cuisine will donate $5 to the cure. What a fabulously stylish way to promote awareness.

YumSugar — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 15:10:07 -0700

If you're looking for another way to justify your breakfast bagel, Panera Bread - sort of like Starbucks, but with baked goods - has just released a bagel in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The bagel, which is shaped like a ribbon and called the Pink Ribbon, is made with cherry chips, dried cherries and cranberries, vanilla, honey and brown sugar. A proceed of each Pink Ribbon bagel sale will benefit various breast cancer charities, including the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization. This is the seventh year Panera has done this promotion, last year they raised almost $200,000 from sales and donations.

This week's cupcake comes from our pal at Never Bashful with Butter. This time she's created a beautiful hazelnut cupcake that's pink all the way through. While it has nothing to do with Breast Cancer Awareness, I thought the lovely pink color to be quite fitting. How could you not love these cupcakes? They're so adorable, and I bet they're tasty too!

Twenty-five percent of the proceeds are donated to the Susan Komen Foundation for Breast Cancer Research, and the best part is that you can actually use the cookie cutter to create any color ribbon.
