I had a really great weekend. Really great!
It all started on Friday when I found out that Natural Gardener is having a great sale on berry bushes. DH has said multiple times that he wants to have berry bushes in the yard. Also that we needed to expand our herbs in the yard.
So, I wrote DH an email detailing why I wanted to go and when. I made sure to keep with it all Friday and Saturday morning. I even brought him some breakfast tacos to fortify him through the day. We finally left at 2 (I wanted to leave at 1) and got to the place at about 2:30. Then, someone did a body snatcher on my husband!
All of a sudden, this other person (who looked like my DH but surely could not be) started making suggestions, wanting to help out - even handing over his credit card for the purchases! DH even suggested that we order the compost (a large delivery that will be dumped onto his precious driveway) before we left the place! WOW!
We did take some time to wander around the place and get some more ideas of what we can do in our small space. DH and I marveled at the huge lettuces and cabbages and cauliflower and realized that our *next* house would have a large yard that would have full sun for said veggies.
It was a wonderful afternoon and I hope to find other garden centers in Austin to visit to keep him thinking about this kind of stuff and to get some inspiration for me too!
*sigh* I love him, I really do. What other girl would ask for and get 4 cubic yards of compost for her birthday?!?! He even keeps asking if that is OK?!?!? ;-)
