Cooking for a Cause: Top 10 Kitchen Items Supporting Breast Cancer Awareness

I know I'm a little late on this post, but everything in my life has been delayed this month... So, better late than never, right?

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an important month to remind women to do self exams and to get their mammograms since early detection is key in preventing and treating breast cancer. This is also the month of all pink everything and whether it's a show of support or an item whose proceeds go toward treatment, outreach, and prevention, the pink goods are everywhere! In that spirit and in the spirit of supporting all the ladies that I know or that I will know that have been touched by this disease, I wanted to do my part here to show some support for a great cause. In true A Squared style, here is a round up of 10 of my favorite pink cooking gadgets and entertaining goods-- perfect for adding a pop of color to your kitchen or dining room and for giving to a worthy cause at the same time!
