Think Pink! The Monthly Mingle Round Up

April 3, 2011 by Sarah Trivuncic 18 Comments

When I promised it would be “summertime” by the time of the Monthly Mingle round up, a couple of people took me literally and questioned my sanity that April marked the start of summer.

In fact I was referring to British Summer Time which officially started last weekend when the clocks were moved forward one hour giving us an extra hour of daylight. You may have been affected differently depending where you are in the world but to everyone in the Northern hemisphere I hope you are feeling full of energy and spark with your extra daylight hour!

I’ll move on to the Think Pink Monthly Mingle round up which I am hosting this month for Meeta at What’s For Lunch Honey. We had lots of entries from rosy tints to intense fuschia, from puddings to pasta. One of my personal favourites was this ice cream with macarons above… you’ll have to scroll down and see all the entries to see who made it!

On with the pink fest!
