There were actually many great moments of the weekend: Matt and I discovering a new Mexican food restaurant in our neighborhood, Casa Navarro, where I spilled a margarita all over my dress (and it was only my first drink!), watching the wonderful new Harry Potter movie (and seeing the preview for Where the Wild Things Are- incredible), going on a semi-cool morning run Saturday, visiting North Haven Gardens, my new favorite nursery in town, lunch with the Wilson brigade on Sunday after church (another great Mexican food restaurant, Mariano's) and discussing plans for our chicken coop.
But the best part of my weekend was spent installing "Mister Landscaper" Drip Irrigation system in our backyard. My mother introduced me to Mr. Landscaper a few weeks ago when she helped me set up our front flower beds on the system. It is SO easy and extremely rewarding, water conservation/effortless maintenance/beautiful results. I tackled the backyard yesterday and I cannot wait to see the roses perk and pink. We set our potted plants to the same drip hose (with the help of "adjustable dripper stakes"). As we are going out of town this week, I was quite nervous about leaving the plants unattended but now they are in the good hands of Mr. Landscaper.
Mister Landscaper, if you are out there, please let me be your "Missus". I am open for any and all advertisements: print, web, radio and TV.
