I Will Buy Anything Pink

Dear Mr./Ms. Brand Manager of [every major CPG company in the world] -

Please continue to make pink products in support of breast cancer awareness. Even if it's not in support of breast cancer awareness, please continue to make pink products. I will buy anything pink. Seriously. ANYTHING.

Take for example, this pink can of soup I bought yesterday. I was really hoping the soup itself would be tinted pink, but no such luck. Still, it's so pretty and cute, I'm just leaving it sitting out on my counter admiring it, and consequently, admiring the Campbell's soup brand.

Or perhaps this pink yoga towel from Yogitoes. Best invention ever. It's a $50 towel for goodness sake, and I already had the blue one, but then you had to go and make a pink one and I love you for it.

Le Creuset, please bring back your pink limited edition line. I was a poor college student when it first came out, but now I have disposable income for which to buy ungodly amounts of pink products, and I would buy your entire french oven line if it came in pink. Every single piece. Even though I only cook once a year.

Yes, it's true. I am a PINK-PRODUCT-CRAVING MONOMANIAC

Must! Have! Pink! Stuff!

What else is available in pink for this oh-so-special month of October, also known as my birthday month? LOTS. For some reason, this site has a campaign against pink breast cancer awareness marketing (why?), but they were kind enough to provide a full list of pink products... I'm going out tomorrow to buy them all!!!

Do you have the pink kitchen aid mixer??

Rosie, I'm a little worried about you. First the enthusiasm for the American Girl center (what a great marketing idea, btw), now it's "all pink all the time" obsession. If you start showing up in Barbie clothing we're going to have an intervention.

I'll give you a shout out if I see the Le Creuset pink series again. I saw it a year ago or so...

PS You're MUCH prettier than the AG doll you compared yourself to. XOXO

tokyoastrogirl - no, I have the red one. for a while I was going through a red appliances phase, but now I'm all about the pink. somehow, two kitchen aid mixers seems a little excessive though ;)

kishari - yeah, I think Barbie is slowly taking over my life! I love pink everything... you should see my work area - it's totally covered in pink fabric! you have no idea how much I would DIE to have that pink Le Creuset... definitely let me know if you see it again

I agree. Cat owns a number of pink garments that I bought her, even though her preferred clothing color is pale green. I can't resist buying pink stuff to put her in, particularly sweaters. On the flip side, I make up for it with light green clothing items and chocolate.

Hmmm... That sorta came out creepy and weird. I don't clothes shop for her that often, but after seven years of birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays, stuff tends to pile up. =b
