Pink Saturday



Provence loves pink, most of the South of France
loves pink.......I think!
Wandering through small towns and villages...........


....................a plethora of pink signs...............



...............pink shutters ~ of course..............


...............pink eateries ~ this one is a couscous restaurant in the town of Apt where there is a large North African community...........


.........and pink plaster 15th century market buildings in the Centre Historique in the town of Mirepoix ~ the heart of Cathare country.
Do you live in a pink house by chance?


For more pink in your life, be sure to visit Beverly at How Sweet The Sound ~ remember, she's our fabulous Pink Saturday hostess.

  2. Happy Pink Saturday, dear Mary.

    You have been so gracious to share your lovely images of France with us. They each make my heart smile.

    Have fun decorating. That is our big project for this weekend. I love unwrapping all of our treasures.

  4. Mary, I do hope we can get together soon. If you get a yen to visit NC. Come on over my friend. What if you girls can take a trip together. The cabin is waiting. Smiling and hoping!!!

    Your photos are wonderful to share in pink. It is kind of universal to see Antique shops using pink as their accent. A great color I might add.

    We did have a two story stucco house in our neighborhood that was a pastel pink. I admit to not admiring it at all. It just looked too different with the colors of the area.

    Hugs to you...Jeanne

  7. Hi Mary! All this pink so beautiful!! I must say the book you gave to me just came in a perfeft momment. I was crying last night while reading it. You're a very special woman to me. I see you can see people beyond their eyes. I would love to go to Raleigh next week. I have just been at home (not packing yet just feeeling a little anxious, and when that happens I lock myself in home). Love, miss you! Vanessa - ps. I would also love to check the Mills Outlet, what do you think?

  8. "plethora"...I love that word!

    Each of your French-inspired posts just make me want to pack up and go!

    Our next trip will be to Spain, so I do believe that will get me to the South of France! Yippee!

    Hugs,
    Deborah

  11. I am so envious of how easy it is to travel from one country to another when you live in Europe. Just a train ride to so many amazing places! With a lot of beautiful pink to enjoy!
