*************************
My living room looks like an episode of Hoarders,
and somewhere under those boxes and dishes and dust is my mind.
I have this sneaking suspicion that I have
forgotten about a tickled pink inquiry...
if I did, please email me! I'm sorry!
*************************
NOW...on to PINK business!
This week, I'm tickled pink about...
a bumpkin on a swing!
yucky fun for kids
skinny aspirations
a beautiful loo
*************************
a bumpkin on a swing
needs no introduction, her name says it all!
Bumpkin and I came across each other a while back
and every time I visit her, I am in awe.
Her posts are dreamy and I just want to step into
the Mac and be a part of her world.
She is entertaining even when she is talking about being a Spinster Bumpkin
{you could never be called a spinster my dear!} She says what some are thinking and says it well, take her letter to Tiger for instance {warning...not for the Tiger fans!}. Did I mention our Ms. Bumpkin cooks...I cannot wait to try this Orange Bundt Cake at my soon-to-be three year old's Orange themed birthday party. to see some stunning photographs.
And, of course, if you need more bumpkin {I do!} you can read up on
100 Things about Bumpkin {psst...her favorite color is orange!} Go visit Bumpkin...I assure you her post will not disappoint.. I hear she has a little something special planned for Tickled Pink.

yucky fun for kids
My son loves the camera.
{and daughter too...but she mainly likes looking at herself}
Joe is always asking to use the camera to take photos...
and now there is a special competition for kids who click!
This is something for kids who like to take photos...
and even kids whose parents don't BLOG can join in too.
Give the kiddos permission to click away and
show them how to use a camera properly and even have
their work seen by others. The competition is open to kids
of all ages (no matter how young) up to the age of 14 years.
Go visit KidsClick, check out the competition how-tos and join your kids in.
This weeks theme is "YUCK!" and it is open until Tuesday 8th June,
so you have over the weekend to get them clicking.

skinny aspirations
Adrienne's blog is refreshing. She offers honest opinions about her challenges with weight loss and her
unhealthy relationship with food {I can relate!}. I love her post on how and when she decided she wanted a
career in health and fitness. I have thought so many of these same things, especially when she talks about the kids who are overweight...it touches my heart!
And then there is her most recent experiment of sorts...a
7 day raw food detox. I read this as she was starting the process and it called to me...no it sang to me. I quickly commented and emailed her and I since have also done the detox. I LOVE it more than I can express. I have at least one green smoothie every day! I will be blogging about my own experience more next week...but for now, go read about Adrienne's
experience *************************
a beautiful loo
She linked her bathroom redo last week. I had actually seen...no swooned over it before...but I love it so much I must point it out so everyone can see the style and absolute fantabulousness of this bathroom. I want to jump on a plane right now just to see her bathroom! You think I am joking...No way! It is fantastic! *************************
