I was at Barnes & Nobles yesterday, (a bookstore here) and there were two rows of The Sweet Scent of Blood in the middle section of the Rack of New Releases - which is located in the center aisle of the store. Very nice. Then I wished that I had brought my camera to take a pick to send, but I never think that far ahead when I'm book shoopping. It was pretty cool seeing the book finally over here in a store. I'm still glad I didn't wait though!

Also....

I have never ever seen a bag just for planting plants in. What a good idea. So looking for a planter, no digging holes, etc. Or are you supposed to keep the plant in there for long? It seems like a great idea, especially for an annual plant. Can you do this with many types of plants?

Growing bags like these are used by everyone over here, mostly for veggies and salad stuff. The tomatoes and other plants will stay in them until the end of the season, then I usually compost the used plant and dig the soil left in the bag into the garden as a mulch. Makes for a quick tidy up. I have started flower seeds in them in the past, but they'e easier in pots really. Seems odd that you don't have them over there :-)
