I’m pretty sure that when mama said, “Mind your P’s and Q’s, that she meant:
PRETTY PINK PYREX fit for a QUEEN!
Mama, up in heaven this baby, (did I ever mention that I was the baby of 8 children); is doing her best!
Cute pink striped ones.
As well as Pink and white Ivy leaves.
Now the last thing this girl needed was more pink bowls. Crimenently, I only put them out for Spring. Oh sure, I’ll use them at a party now and then, but the color really doesn’t go with my kitchen. Apparently crimenently is not a word, I got the underline thing. Sure is in my vocabulary.
Who am I to not mind my mama?
Don’t they make you anxious for Spring?
I’ll tell you what, I sure am anxious! Can’t wait to get my hands into that dirt. Been so busy with the living room that I’ve hardly had a chance.
Spring officially starts on March 20th. So I would like to kick it off with a little give away. Not a lot, just a little something my friend, Beth whipped up.
This cute cupcake pincushion. Isn’t it sweet? Now if that doesn’t look like Spring! Love that big flower on top. Reminds me of those babies you see with flowers as big as their head. Gotta love it!

If you have a blog and would like your name thrown in the hat a 2nd time post this give away on your sidebar. Make sure you tell me.
I will leave it open until the first day of Spring, March 20th.
Good luck and don’t forget to mind your P’s! (and Q’s) What exactly are P’s and Q’s anyway?
Hugs,
Jann

I love pink Pyrex! Where did you get those great pieces? I have a few mint green Pyrex dishes but no pink. Poo!
I'm trying to learn to crochet so that little cupcake pincushion blows me away. I'm going to put it on my FB page. (I love those cute plates it's on too), lol. Yeah, I'm in Spring mode :)
Have a great weekend,
Shasta
Those are some cute pink dishes. Love the ivy pattern. I think every body is holding their breath for Spring to get here. Hope it arrives soon.
I feel the same way, I can't wait to get my hands into the dirt, come on Spring! I love your pink dishes. I thinking I need to find some pink dishes for spring, too!
I have never seen pink pyrex before it's lovely.
I collect pin cushions,so this one would be lovely to have. It will be on my sidebar too.

Hi Jann,
Oh, how lovely are those P's & Q's!
The pyrex is so beautuful and looks to be in perfect shape. Just gorgeous! I always thought, when it was said to mind your p's & q's that it meant your Please and Thank yous...good old fashioned manners & respect.
Your pink pyrex is just so pretty!
Have a great weekend!
All the Best,
Christine
The pink pyrex is charming! Your mother would be proud. I'm a Google follower. Don't know how I missed you on Linky, but am following there too (just in case).
Your pink pyrex is beautiful, and so is that sweet pincushion. Thanks for the chance to win.
What a precious pincushion! It always makes me wish I could follow patterns better! Love your pink pyrex, too...I've never seen any! Hugs! ♥
Sigh..pink...my favorite color. It is just so very pretty Jann. I adore it!
P's & Q's, what good advise. The pink bowls are so pretty! I love the pincushion as well. I am so ready for Spring this year. I want to spend time outside!
Blessings,
Susie
That is a cute pin cushion! I know the word you used and I used it, too. As far as P's and Q's...I looked it up, and it was so memorable that I FORGOT what it means! How's that for an answer? Need to get busy so have a great time these next few days. We are supposed to have really nice temperatures for about 5 days!♥♫
Love the cupcake! We also can't wait for Spring to get here! Have an amazing day!
I love pyrex dishes,and how charming is this particular shade of pink... looks sooo pretty on that crystal stand! The pincushion is too darn cute:)... lovely spring colors! Thanks for the chance to win and for your visit. Always a pleasure to have you over. Have a wonderful weekend!~Poppy

I had never seen pink Pyrex until several people have been showing it online lately. My Mom still has a Pyrex bowl she got when she was married, but it is just a not so attractive yellow color. We keep it in the kitchen just for the sake a memories, but it's one we don't use.
I'd be using those pink ones even if they didn't match my kitchen.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Happy Pink Saturday!
So pretty! Come link with me with my Color Connection meme.
Broken Leg with a bit of pink. Have a great weekend.
PS. I am now your GFC follower.
Be still my heart, there is nothing better than pink Pyrex, it is so hard to find....I looked at your pictures 3 times, I would love pink Pyrex bowls!

i am having pyrex envy! My friend has me out looking for the striped bowls, I just found the blue for her now I need pink.
Just beautiful!
I have a few very old Pyrex dishes but none in this pretty pink shade.
Cute pink pyrex Jann! It is springy, but like you, it doesn't match my kitchen either.

I love your pink Pyrex, and I do use pink in my kitchen and dining room for spring, but mostly my kitchen is red and white. Ps and Qs means pints and quarts,"mind your own Ps and Qs" as in don't worry what someone else is doing. never hear that expression anymore, do ya?

I love your pink pyrex...so pretty! I love the pin cushion, too!! I'm a new follower. Thank you for the opportunity to win.
I just saw a pink striped bowl on Flickr, and fell in love with it!
Am I too late for the giveaway? I've decided I need to start using a pincushion instead of dumping the pin box every other day!
