English Proverb on Gardening
Maybe this is why my garden looks so dreadful this year. I didn't prepare it in my soul. The deer ate the tops off 2 of my 5 tomato plants too. There is hardly anything left. Boo hoo.
"The garden must be prepared in the soul or else it will not flourish."

Jantzen Swimwear is 100 Years Old
Boy, does this ever make me feel old. I loved Jantzen bathing suits and always bought them. I really didn't even realize they were still in business and I certainly did not know the company was founded in 1910. How very smart of them to revive the line thanks to all that free advertising on MAD MEN. I thought it was very bold of Don Draper to dismiss them the way he did on the season premier. They deserved it for being so narrow-minded. View their creative 2010 ad campaign here. Do you think bathing caps will come back too?
