two questions:
Apr. 18th, 2013 10:25 am1) Has anyone familar with Baltimore-ish a recommendation for a restaurant we might want to go to for our anniversary dinner next friday? The rules so far are that it be someplace at least slightly nice/interesting that we haven't been before. This year somewhere fairly nearby (southern Baltimore/Glen Burnie/Columbia/Ellicott City is probably our ideal range) with assured parking, open for early dinner, and not so upscale that they'd mind us bringing the baby along would be preferred. (We have theoretical babysitting options, but aren't quite mentally ready to deploy them yet.)
2) Does anyone have useful knowledge about acquiring paving stones for garden settings? Ideally what I want is something with the look of the natural-pieced slate walkways (ie not square pavers), possibly in a stone that has better traction when wet. However, I do NOT want to support fresh quarrying if there's an option that doesn't do so... and if there is, my internet search skills are completely inadequate to the task of finding out about it. (Also not a fan of the recycled plastic pavers, as they reputedly will float away in heavy rains, which is also a problem with the mulch paths I have now.) Anyone have thoughts? Besides stalking craig's list, that is?
