In the Pink

I use the phrase in its very loosest sense although......

"The origin of the phrase "in the pink" dates back to the late 1500s when a version of the saying appeared in Shakespeare's classic, "Romeo and Juliet". In Shakespeare's usage, though, it meant an outstanding example, with no connotation of health or vitality."


So I think that I could argue that this pretty poppy is an outstanding example. Well, if not outstanding, then not bad!
