Last weekend, the actress took her little sisters vegetable picking at a family farm. Here's why you should steal her idea.Next time a friend/family member/suitor calls you to make plans, skip the routine dinner/movie/coffee date and instead ask them to meet you in the dirt. And maybe -- just maybe -- you'll look as perfect as Rachel Bilson and her sisters on their weekend gardening date. I can't get enough of these photos of the lovely Rachel Bilson and her sisters Hattie and Rosemary at the Underwood Family Farm.

Not only will you skip the calories, the cost and that creeping sense that you're doing the same thing over and over again -- you'll get all sorts of benefits from the gardening. Time in the sun (just wear a hat, like Rachel), a light workout, healthy goodies to take home and major bragging rights. "Oh what did I do on Saturday? Just some gardening with a friend. Oh, you watched TV? Yeah, that sounds nice."
