It's Shakespeare's birthday today. (Or at least this is the traditional celebration.) I read once of a gardener who only planted and grew things mentioned in the works of Shakespeare ~ violets, rosemary, pansies, daffodils, iris, pinks, roses, pomegranate. I imagine a beautiful back yard where people wear hair garland, sit long, feed each other fruit and drink love potions. But for now I have two clamp-on flower boxes and $4 wine from Trader Joe's. Ain't no thang.
