like a giant marshmellow peep

this was my easter outfit. i always end up wearing very bizarre things when i'm home. and by bizarre, i mean not from target or kohls, which is the norm for most central Pennsylvanians. i think it might have to do with the fact that i feel kind of like a stranger when i go home now- like i can get away with wearing a canary yellow dress with t-strap shoes and a giant daisy pin. like no one knows me anymore, so no one cares. or i don't care if they care. it's kind of fun.

at one point the following conversation went down:
caitlin: hey grandpa
grandpa: caitlin chiffon! happy easter! you look like a daffodil!
caitlin: thank you . . . ?
grandpa: janet- do you see your granddaughter's dress? doesn't she look like a daffodil?
grandma: a what? no. not really. basketballs are normally orange.

love those folks. we had a nice quite easter. full of ham and cheese and baked pineapple and asparagus and watching an american in paris and playing with our new blow up dinosaur. the weather was beautiful as was the company. i've been eating easter candy as a substitute for normal meals the past few days. that's healthy right? (chocolate) eggs and (jelly) beans? definitely good for you.
