I spent 5 hours following my husband from store to store looking for a new weed whacker last week.

.

.

Don’t believe the people who tell you men hate to shop. When he’s looking for a new toy for himself? My guy will shop until I drop. We hit at least 7 different lawn and garden sections and then went back to the very first place we stopped so he could buy the very first one he saw.

And then?

.

.

The man who owns a giant zero turn tractor and four push mowers… yes, four. Two of them self propelled. … started looking at new push mowers.

For me.

The person who doesn’t want one.

It was at that point I said enough… and made him take me for a nice late lunch.

.

.

A fresh blueberry mojito was a good way to start.

.

.

Every time I see this old tool art installation I want my husband to do something like it in the man cave.

.

.

And every time, he says no.

.

.

To start… it was butternut squash soup for the husband and some fabulous dry rub barbecue shrimp for moi.

.

.

A basil limeade later?

.

.

An amazing Bolognese with fresh pasta and a lamb, beef and pork ragu. It was so good I didn’t even notice what the husband ate.

Well worth 5 hours of tool shopping.
