Eye on Prize: 2 Bottles of Madison Square Park Bond No. 9

Figgy gave me this gift last Mother's Day, when she was 14.
My wonderful cousin Lin scanned this sepia photo from my Mom's Fordham yearbook.
I'm lagging way behind in votes in the contest to win two bottles of Bond No. 9! I really don't feel that bad, b/c the other stories about women and their moms are really awesome. So touching. But in case you want to vote [for any of them], here's the link again:

The pencil portrait above, which Figgy did of my Mom's 1945 graduation photo from Fordham University, accompanies my entry. Voting open through Sunday, May 8--Mother's Day.

I know, it's shallow, to be rustling up support for some free perfume. C'est la vie--it's the little things in life that sweeten it most.

Thank you. Good night.

    I am sorry about that, too. My cellphone kept losing battery power and shutting off. Good to talk to you, though. Take care. Love, Linda
