This wildflower is known as pink pyrola or pink wintergreen. Very delicate in appearance...
"Wintergreen leaves are high in methyl salicylate, a natural painkiller, and they can be chewed and applied to wounds as a poultice in an emergency. Pink wintergreen was considered to be an effective remedy in the treatment of rheumatism. A decoction of the leaves, or the leaves and roots, has been used as an eyewash for sore eyes by the Bella Coola and Woods Cree Tribes. A decoction of the plant was used by the Woods Cree and Penobscot Indians to treat the coughing up of blood. The Shoshoni Indians used a decoction of the root to treat liver complaints. The Micmac and Penobscot Indians also used parts of the plant for gonorrhea and kidney trouble."

Although it was not intentional, I now realize I'd only taken pictures of pink flowers during my walk-commute this morning.
I wanted to take one of those macro shots where you stick the lens right in the flower like you're a hummingbird drinking the nectar.

One of the early Spring flowers to adorn my garden is this beautiful pink Primula. Each bloom gives off a very special smile to confirm that Winter is almost over!

Box of pink themed 21st birthday cupcakes. Half vanilla flavour, half strawberry. Thanks to Cupcakes UK discussion for loads of tips for successful buttercream. Thanks to Liana from Star Bakery www.flickr.com/photos/starbakery/ for the 2 tone idea and Sam at Scrumptious Buns www.flickr.com/photos/scrumptiousbuns/ for the tips on buttercream from the Cupcakes UK discussion (although mine pale in comparison to theirs!).
