EXHIBIT A:
Wear this outfit when the sun breaks through and you frantically try to prepare the ground for garlic (yet not so frantically that you can't take a Frugal Fancy-pants snapshot).

Jeans: dime at a rummage sale

Optional accessories:
Dead sunflowers: free
Tiller: borrowed from my mom who borrowed it from Uncle David
The funny thing about these pictures is that once the tiller started, it took me 2 or 3 hours longer to till than it should have because the ground was too mucky, and then it was too dark to plant.
I decided to wait until the ground dried up a bit, which was GENIUS, because 2 weeks later, the ground still looked like this.
On to EXHIBIT B, anyway!
EXHIBIT B:
Carefully step into the driest edge of the garden after church so you don't sink before Millie snaps the picture.
And then squint like a supermodel while she takes the second.
