PINK SATURDAY POP ART

Hello and welcome to the Pink Saturday Post! I am so happy to be here with you and want to thank Beverly our host over at http://howsweetthesound.tyepad.com/. Stop by as she is displaying a lovely hoppy pink! I have been trying to catch up with my post hopping and some days there is just not enough time to say hello to everyone. So if I have  missed you thanks for stopping by here.

I wanted to share this Andy Warhol pop art with Marilyn Monroe the fabulous celebrity from days gone by. Warhol was a very different sort of fellow but his art truly made a statement and many years after his death he is still very popular. He coined the phrase "fifteen minutes of fame" and he enjoyed a very popular career in art snapping celebrities for many of his photos.In his hometown of Pittsburgh, PA., The Andy Warhol Museum exists in memory of his life and artwork. Hope you enjoy the pic I choose.

I had a very trying week at work and this weekend is my time to shine. I have visited many new blogs (to me) and I am going to spotlight a few here. Marie at http://lemondropvintage.blogspot.com/ has a vintage blog about all things vintage and her giveaway is really cool. Please stop by and tell her Anne sent you over.

  Next stop by Barb at  http://dogmomdiva.blogspot.com/. She has a sweet blog over there and although I have known her for forty plus years she also has a very nifty giveaway. Hop to it folks!

Now go see Valrie at http://poemsmyway-valrie.blogspot.com/ . I am a poetry freak so this is a very neat blog. Her giveaway ain't too shabby either gals!/guys!!

Capt'n Nancy at http://captnnancy.blogspot.com/. She has a great blog and I enjoyed her pinks! Please do stop by and say hi!

I had a different Pink post in mind but due to the inclement weather here I was lacking an important piece for it! Next week I promise!

I had a few blogging problems yesterday that appeared to be resolved today. Koko was getting ready to help me look for the problem but Barb beat us to it! I appreciate these ladies and their helpful ways. In fact when I posted about my blogger problem everyone who commented was so kind. Thanks much and Linda at http://prairieflowerfarm.blogspot.com/ you always have prayers for me, thank you.

Everyone enjoy your weekend and go Pink!
