Ronny's Favorite Deviled Eggs & a Pink-y Promise

  It's almost impossible to not notice all the PINK that pops out in October. Pink is, after all, more of a spring color than an autumn hue. Just about everyone knows that the pink ribbon is for Breast Cancer Awareness. That said...

  My darlin' Ronny is out there right now, wearing a pink hat, a pink t-shirt, & running a 5k with his unit from the Army National Guard. This makes me very proud for 2 reasons. First of all, he HATES the color pink...absolutely CAN NOT stand it. Second, he's running for awareness of something that has claimed lives, bodies, & minds of so many women in my family...& so many more around the world. Last November, I had decided to participate this year, but with the complications of this pregnancy, there's no way I can. Instead, my husband & daughter have stepped up to the plate this year & BOTH walked/ran an event. I am speechless with emotion when I think about that.

  In honor of their giving spirits & in thanks for what they & all the participants are giving & doing, here is a pink food... one that, believe it or not, is Ronny's favorite.
