I have a confession: I am a horrible gardener. Actually, horrible doesn’t even begin to describe my complete and total lack of ability to keep any sort of plant alive. If plants had their own CIA with a “Most Wanted” wall, I’d be Public Enemy...

I have a confession to make: I never even considered a low-flow shower head in the past because I was concerned that the water pressure would be awful. I have insanely thick hair, and when I shampoo and condition, I need a powerful stream to rinse it clean. Dribbling...
