Date Night

Since I work so much these days...its a rare occasion to actually go on a date with Michael....or actually just seeing him at all is pretty rare. I had Tuesday night off this week so we took fun advantage of the beautiful weather and went to a Mariners game!

It was so nice to spend some time with Michael other then late night dinners when I get off from RR. 

Mini DIY Herb Garden

I was so excited to start/help my friend Brandi start a garden in her back yard...then I started working at Red Robin and every ounce of free time has been taken. I still wanted to do some gardening so I figured I could just plant a couple things in pots.

I bought a couple cheap terracotta pots from Walmart and painted them with chalkboard paint.

This took a little longer then expected. Each coat needed to dry 24 hours in between and I did about 4-5 coats just to make sure it didn't chip from being outside.

My original plan was to do Cilantro, Basil, and Mint but I couldn't find regular mint starters anywhere. On our way back from Costco me and Michael stopped at Tacoma Boys and found nice starters and I settled on Spinach instead of Mint.

 Actually Planting was the easiest part.

I LOVE how great they turned out! Surprisingly I only wrote the chalk words on there once and was happy with them. I can't wait to see them grow and be able to start using the herbs!
