"The table was decorated with pink tulips, a pink tablecloth, pink candles, pink napkins, and pink nut dishes. The main course was a maraschino cherry, walnut, marshmallow, pineapple, strawberry, cream cheese and cabbage molded salad, accompanied by pink biscuits. There were also pink mints and pink gumdrops. And luckiest of all, Mrs Harroway just happened to be dressed entirely in pink with even pink gloves and pink roses in her hat."
Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's Farm, Betty MacDonald, 1954.
