Thinking PANK!

Ahhhh...October...while the month normally makes me think about pumpkins, turning leaves, and the possibility of less than 100 degree temps, what I have been thinking about is PANK (Pink for those of you above the Mason-Dixon Line). October is breast cancer awareness month and it seems everywhere you turn there is something pink...pro football players sporting pink, golfers sporting pink, pink appliances, pink, pink, pink. I think it is wonderful! For the past several years I have been fortunate to be part of an extraordinary group, Pretty In Pank, raising money for local breast cancer awareness and to assist those facing the disease. We hold a variety show as our major fundraiser and I must say that this year's show was absolutely the "breast"! The show had a 70's theme and from start to finish it was an evening of laughter and love for the cause. The local talent outdid themselves and I have a feeling folks will be talking about this one for quite a while! I fell very blessed to live in such a generous and caring community. Thank you to all who came out to support the cause, to all who donned a wig or ridiculous costume, and to all the volunteers who gave so selflessly of their time and talents. So, when next October rolls around, plan to join us in the fight and THINK PANK! I leave you with the Happy Hands Hand Knits door prize...I hope it will be cool enough soon for the recipient to wear the stinkin' thing!
