Even though I usually reserve Fridays for celebrating all things rosy with my Pink Thing of the Day, I simply must give a proper shoutout to National Pink Day, even if it does fall on a Monday this year. Pink deserves the spotlight any day of the week! To mark the occasion, I’m sharing this joyful photo of Pink Gerbera Daisies (and their pink friends) snapped during a lovely spring visit to the New York Botanical Garden in May. Nature really knows how to rock a perfect pink palette. Celebrate today by adding a splash of pink to your life — whether it’s a flower, a fashion statement, or your favorite flamingo-shaped mug. Pink looks good on everyone!

While I am currently walking the floor of the Javits Center at this year’s Summer Fancy Food Show, I could not let the day slip by unacknowledged. Please enjoy a selection of my photos of Pink Things that I’m checking out from the show!

But the sculpture’s tenure was extended by three weeks due to popular demand, which means you still have until this Friday, June 23rd, to make your pilgrimage to Midtown!

Happy National Pink Day!
Attention Fans of the Color Pink Everywhere, yes, it’s true: June 23rd is National Pink Day! These days, Pink has come to be associated with several social causes such as the Anti-Bullying campaign (very important) and of course, Breast Cancer Awareness. But there is nothing wrong with just taking a day out to celebrate the color Pink, which just makes everything brighter and more fun. Pink Power!
Happy Birthday, Glenn Danzig!
Glenn Danzig celebrates 56 years on the planet today, having been born on June 23rd in 1955! Someone once asked me, and I admit this was a few years ago now, who I thought would win in a fist fight between Danzig and Henry Rollins. I said that I thought Rollins would kick Danzig’s ass, and I still think so. Happy Birthday, Glenn!
