Nope...you might be a seed saver, but you are not a gardener.<br /><br />(Pssst. I'll bet she makes her kids or that hunk she's married to do all the dirty garden work. She just does all the sissy stuff in the kitchen, then falls to the floor in a dead faint because she's "overworked", and then they wait on her hand and foot. She really has them trained.
