davidd's A Doll A Day 2018

[davidd]

7 May – New Bratz Selfie-Snaps Yasmin wonders if summer... or at least the end of winter...
has finally arrived. Yasmin is also wondering if she is eligible to receive supplemental
"on call" compensation for always being ready to step in as a photo subject on those
"A Doll A Day" days when I run out of time and ideas.

I initially purchased "New Bratz" Selfie-Snaps Yasmin in 2016 in response to an Instagram photo contest called #summerofbratz sponsored by @bratzuk.
The idea was to take photos of a Bratz doll "out and about" during summer activities. Of course, Yasmin (and I) were prolific prolific posters in the
contest, and the only posters who submitted multiple photos from various locations. Yet, of course, we didn't win... which was to be eected, as
the contest was mostly for UK residents, intended as an effort to promote Bratz dolls in the UK and Europe.

As we know, promotional efforts for the 2016 Bratz reboot were sadly ineffective.

Although I suppose the contest must have been nominally effective, as it inspired me to purchase a "New Bratz" doll that I otherwise had no interest in or intention of ever buying.
As is often the case with dolls we don't initially much care for, Yasmin became one of my favorites as we traveled to interesting locations around southern Utah.

In fact, I had so much fun taking Yasmin on adventures that she resumed her #summerofbratz adventures in 2017, and now, in 2018, she is looking forward
to another summer of fun and sun.

Uhmm... about that "sun" thing: this photo is misleading. The weather today was overcast and windy until about an hour before sunset, when the clouds briefly parted,
allowing Yasmin a chance to look out the window and start planning her next adventure.
