Charlotte was here.

Bag: Marshalls

You'd think that after all these years, I'd be over my country kitsch schtick.  That I'd get real with myself and say, face it, Tracy, you're a Jersey girl.  But aside from the occasional impulse to set up my tripod at a nearby abandoned gas station, I'm uninspired by my suburban surroundings.  So instead, I put on one of my many pairs of cowboy boots and imagine that my yard is a speck in a stretch of wide, open spaces.  Delusional?  Sure.  But it's probably wise.

Intriguing or not, that gas station seems suspect.

The Easter Edit

A day that was sunny and the Easter bunny.  What more could two girls ask for?*

I had to put the bunnies even farther out of Charlotte's reach this year.  But it turns out I like them better here.

"The Easter Edit" sounds sophisticated, doesn't it?  Like I'm going to Monday morning-quarterback-recommend designer fits you could've worn or gourmet meals you could've prepared.  But if you're a regular, then you know that that's not what this is.  (Also, that I prefer polyester to silk and JELL-O to crème brûlée.)  That said, I admit that my pics are brightened and curated (I'm an artist, not an animal!).  But they're by no means perfect -- and neither was the holiday.  I had my outbursts and Charlotte had hers, and then I had mine again.  So, the usual.  Nevertheless, we (and by we I mean the whole family) laughed a lot too.  Which is fitting for the sitcom that's become my life -- and the part that I choose to remember.

So here's to Easter madness and memories.

And the Peeps that make them so sweet.
