One of my most infamous moments at work (there are many, they think I’m hysterical there) was the day I turned my nose up at pink.
The story goes that we were all sitting around a table talking about colors of the season, looking through color palettes. Pink came up and I was the first to speak up (loudly): “ew, I so do not wear pink.” A face was made.
A couple seconds of silence goes by and then all of a sudden everyone breaks into laughter. Coworker: “are you kidding me? you are the queen of pink.” Me: another face and a head shake and then… “oh yeah, I guess there’s that bright pink dress I wear, and my pink flower headband, and that garment dyed deep vee tee shirt….”
Yep, I was busted. My comment was totally a lie- I actually wear a lot of pink. Shocking pink. Around my neck, on my nails, on my lips, in my hair, on my body.
So to make up for snubbing you, Pink, here I am preaching your gospel and publicly declaring my love.

You are so busted and you are so wonderful in pink! It happens to be one of my favorites as well. I am “tickled pink” that you came to your senses. S
