Think Pink Recipes

[Blue Rose]

Hi everyone,

I'm just finishing off doing my October newsletter & just about have enough room to include a recipe (simple one :green.

Because October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month & with it Think Pink Fridays, the theme of my newsletter is ....Think Pink. (not an easy thing when you're a blue fan, lol).

Anyway, 1 of my treatment packages has coconut in it so thought perhaps a recipe for coconut ice - well, it's pink & it's got coconut in it.

Can anyone think of anything else that may be appropriate?

Is anyone doing anything themselves for BCAM or Think Pink Fridays?

edit: Actually, I'm doing a chocolate treatment package as well so how's about coconut ice with one end dipped in chocolate?

I am holding a Breast Cancer charity event throughout October - for every 'pink' manicure or pedicure I am donating 25% to the charity.

To encourage clients to also make a donation I have a tombalo with prizes of OPI polish, mini Avojuice, glitter files and SiennaX sachets - £1 per ticket but clients are happily donating as they have a chance of winning.

Have also inserted rolled up certificate into balloons - 15% discount vouchers, 50% off facials, SiennaX Silver/Gold Shimmer spray, 'Sorry you are not a winner' - client bursts the balloon to see what they've won - great fun:lol:

Name the Pink Friday girl - prize donated by hairdresser next door - hairspray and mousse in pink packaging. Also have pink ribbon pins for sale.

This is all set up on a table directly behind my nail bar - it looks great I LOVE PINK!!! As soon as clients enter the salon its in their face so I don't even have to ask them to donate they just want to!! Everyone like to win something!

Have contacted the local press and they have inserted my editorial about the event - I'm hoping to pick up a few new clients along the way.......and make a 'nice' total donation for this very worthwhile cause.
