You know you're a Texas Gardener if
By Chris S. Corby

Your garden is never large enough when you plant it and always too large when it comes time to weed it.

You have memorized every word in more than 30 seed catalogs but you can't remember your wedding anniversary.

No matter how well you care for the grass in your lawn, it always seems to grow faster and better in the flower beds.

Neighbors turn away from you on the street when you approach them with "free" zucchini.

You trim the weeds in your garden with a string trimmer rather than pull them up.

You roll the windows down on your spouses car anytime the chance of rain reaches 20 percent.

You carry photos of your tomato plants to show off to strangers in line at the grocery store or bank.

You have been 'cited' for collecting garbage bags full of leaves and grass clippings.

Your idea of a fun date is going out to the garden and talking to your plants.

You spouse sues your garden for alienation of affection.

You have been known to walk out in the middle of a cold night to cover your plants with blankets.
