For pete's sake

My husband apparently does not count as 'adult supervision' when it comes to gardening either.
"Oh, let's go to the nursery. I have a list: 2 citronella plants, one peace lily, one spider plant, and maybe some mint. I have the pots and soil."
We emerge with my list, true, the variety of mint being chocolate. We also leave with 3 bags of soil, 1 Gerbera Daisy, 2 habenero peppers, 1 upright rosemary five gallon, 5 sweet basil.
On our way home, "Hey, we need a shovel to prepare the bed for the plants outside." I stay in the car, he runs into wall mart. He emerges with a shovel, a watering timer, 4 more plants, and several lengths of hose.
Today, "Hey, I need a couple more bags of soil for the garden bed. Quick run to home depot."
We emerge with two pineapple sage, one grapefruit mint, the soil, and two pots that look like teacups. (He made me put the pot back that looks like an off-brand Magikarp).
Edited to add that hubby did not CARE that we're constantly 100+ Farenheit right now in the afternoons. If we're gardening, FINE, we're going to have an outside garden too dammit. Or at least that's his take on things.
