I just read a new study that claims an evolutionary basis for this preference for pink. Back in prehistoric times, the men would hunt and the women would gather fruit, etc. So it kind of makes sense that they'd find more food if they could identify red ripe fruits.

This prehistoric recollect may also help to explain her penchant for public nudity, but what about the attraction to tiaras and lip balm? I think we'll switch bedtime stories from board book fairy tales to Ms. Magazine tonight.

Although, judging by the giddiness and volume of some of the pint-sized patrons, I'd say the hot fudge can definitely affect your judgement. Life may be like a box of chocolates, but in this case, you definitely know what you are g
