Sunday Afternoon Drive

One of the outings my best friend's family took was a Sunday afternoon drive to the country to look at the cows.  Can you imagine?  I always got roped into going because I was her BFF. lol  We would pile into the family station wagon and across the Delaware Memorial Bride we would go to New Jersey.  If my friend and I were lucky, we could slouch down low enough so we couldn't be seen. However, it wasn't long before her dad commented sit up girls and look at the beautiful Jersey cows.  Since I am a city girl, I remember thinking I would never live here. Years later I did end up living in New Jersey. My BFF loved to tease me about just driving down the road to look at the cows.

If you are a Jersey girl and proud of it.  We have just the T shirt for you. A custom embroidered I'm a Jersey girl shirt.  The shirt is embroidered on our premises and ships from our store in Hainesport, NJ.

We have other Jersey themed products as well. Stop by our eCrater store to take a look.

I'm A Jersey Girl

This morning as I was listing a new Jersey Girl t shirt on eCrater, I thought about the first time I wore my Jersey Girl t shirt.
 A few years ago when I relocated to New Jersey from Delaware my Jersey girlfriends, better known as the Hens and Chickens , presented  me with a Jersey Girl t shirt as a gift.  One day I wore the shirt when shopping at a local store   This lady comes up to me and started berating me for wearing the shirt and told me she thought it was quite tacky. The shirt was not tacky at all. It just said Jersey Girl embellished with some sea shells.  By the way, this was before we opened Embroidery Fashions Boutique.
I stood there speechless.  And believe me that is something I normally would not do.  When she was finished, I politely told her the shirt was a gift from my dearest friends.  Since I was new to the area, I hoped all New Jersey residents were not as rude as she was.
Talk about the tables turning.  She stood there and did not know what to say; and finally walked away.
Later on, the manger of the store approached me.  She apologized for the rude customer and asked me not to  judge all of them by THAT woman. She really made me laugh.  I ended up making a new friend.
Even though I am now back in Delaware, we still talk on the phone, and facebook each other.  We make time to visit when I am in Jersey.
I am proud to say I have many Jersey Girls as friends and I will remain a Jersey girl at heart.
