This is what I’ve been doing Friday…
That’s right… PACKING…the pink Tee and jacket are for traveling on Saturday…while you are making the Pink Saturday rounds, I’ll be headed for Barcelona, Spain…and a week long cruise of the Mediterranean. First stop is Naples, Italy…then on to Rome and Livorno…I’m packing light…mostly black and more black so everything goes together…
I didn’t buy a bunch of new clothes, but one very Pink Attitude splurge was a vintage lace mantilla. I’ll be wearing it to St. Peter’s and in the Sistine Chapel. I know it’s no longer required to cover our heads, but I just won’t feel right going bare headed into that magnificence…
Isn’t it lovely? Doesn’t the lamp look devout?
It’s not fine expensive lace, but it reminds me of those worn by the older ladies for Mass when I was younger…and it reminds me of humility. Which is what I am feeling today, humbled by my blessings that I am able to make this trip. I hope to do another update from Spain…
Now, you scoot over to Beverly’s blog to see what Pink Tricks and Treats are being shared today.http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/
And if you’re a fan, check in on the Rangers…I won’t be home to cheer for them and things were pretty glum on Thursday. They’re needing some PINK in the worst possible way. You have yourself a Pink Week. I know I will!!!

What a wonderful adventure!! I know you will have a great trip and you'll remember to take tons of photos....especially items of Pink Interest! My friend and her daughter just returned from Rome, too! I'll see her photos in the morning...they had a great time.
I'm pulling for your Rangers, too. They had a rough start, but last night's game was great for your boys!
Enjoy...enjoy...enjoy and I would want to wear a lovely lace mantilla, too!!!
