Pink Rooster Saturday


Time for Pink Saturday hosted by
Beverly @ How Sweet the Sound.

Le chef is here with a delicious
cupcake iced in creamy pink frosting.

Enjoy!




Yesterday's Rooster Party at Bella Vista was a huge success. I'm still working my way through all the delightful parties. I never realized that there are so many different roosters out there. Hardly a duplicate in the bunch! Thanks, Barb, for hosting this hugely successful event. It was great fun!



A big thank you to each of you who visited and left a comment this week.

Pink Saturday is a day for posting something pink and in keeping with celebrating The Week of Roosters here at HFTS, here is my PINK Rooster.

Small French Faience Dish, Unsigned

Singing Heart

A Haiku for Lovers

by Hyacinth

With each new season

My love for you grows stronger~

My heart sings with joy.

August 2009


"Quand ce coq chantera, mon amour finira."

"When this rooster sings, my love will end."

The French saying is a declaration of undying love, since this particular rooster will NEVER sing!

This sweet sentiment is found on various items that one might give a friend or sweetheart. I also have several French faience snuffs in my collection with this quote. You can see them in the slideshow posted at the top of the sidebar. The haiku was written for my husband. Sunday we celebrate 34 years of marriage.

This little pink rooster is the finale of my week of roosters on parade. Another huge "Thank You!" to Barb for hosting yesterday's Rooster Party. It was definitely a party to crow about! An amazing 200+ participants.

Happy Pink Saturday to All!




Come back on Monday for a double post with both Metamorphosis Monday and Blue Monday.

Have a great weekend!

The summer we married, my husband was in graduate school, and I was employed as a teacher. We took a portion of our savings that summer and purchased a sailboat. We christened our Catalina 22, “Hyacinths For The Soul” after Saadi’s poem. Our "Hyacinths" provided years of pleasure.

    Wow, I so enjoyed your week of roosters. I was also surprised that I haven't seen many duplicaitons through this whole party. I hope we get to see the rooster Christmas tree in a few months!

    Thanks for visiting my rooster party. I just love so many of your roosters. The tray with the roosters are one of my favorites. I could go on and on. I love the photo on the plate with the tray. I missed doing "Pink Saturday" this week. I was to busy with the rooster post. Please visit again. Blessings...Sherry

    I have a cup and saucer that match your rooster plate. I'll have to go look on the bottom to see where it came from.

    I enjoyed following along all week to see the Roosters. My favorite was the little salt and pepper photo displayed during your Julia post. I viewed this movie on Thursday and was so inspired that I came home and cooked myself silly:) I have been dieting all summer but threw the diet out the window and enjoyed the fruits of my labor...well the flour and butter and sugar I should say. Now to have taken a cooking lesson at the Greenbriar with Julia sounds like the icing on the cake!

    Hi Sarah! Happy anniversary to you and your dh! Love the plate! I have scrolled through and read your wonderful posts for this week. I am still drooling over all of the lovely pieces of faience that you have! It is a visual feast for a lover of Quimper like me! I will have to come back and look again, I am sure! As for my stamps, they came from Hobby Lobby and they are half price this week, I noticed! I am off to buy more tomorrow! lol Happy week!...hugs...Debbie
