Planting weekend

Today was a busy one...
Breakfast at The Spot.
A quick stop at IKEA for a few items.
Then we stopped at my favourite little plant shop. It's a local farmer who sells bedding plants, vegetable plants, and herbs from her home based business. She has a bit of acreage, and grows all her own plants. She also does pre-planted hanging baskets.

Usually, I plant my own hanging baskets. But this year, she had some cedar boxed hanging ones that were just lovely. So, we bit the bullet and bought them. It cost us about $40 more than doing it ourselves, but they look lovely by the pool...
and were oh so easy!!
Because I didn't have to spend all day planting the hanging baskets, I had enough time today to plant all the other flowers...
And even had time left over to kick back, enjoy the back yard, and read a few magazines!
