Photo Monday – Are You Sick of Prospect Park Yet?
The girls have skating classes in Prospect Park on Saturday mornings. It’s on the far side of the park for us so we don’t go there as much when we’re just walking around. We’d had snow during the night but…

For the third year in a row, I asked for a lens as my birthday-Christmas-from everybody gift. Last year, I really thought that I would be looking into flashes as this year’s gift. I changed my mind in Scotland. When…
Ginger Jeans Take Two
Or the tale of the stretchy-not stretchy-too stretchy denim and the crappy pictures (because E was home sick that day so I didn’t get to take my time like I usually would). It starts with my favorite skinny jeans needing…
