But maybe it's one of those womanly things ;). That said, I don't mind gardening and have done a fair share in my life. Last year, as a matter of fact, I almost got a summer job at a farm. Not my favorite work (that'd be writing, of course) - but it's earthy and good for the soul :).

But, no, I'm afraid I've never had the temptation to demolish my house and replace it with a botanic garden. Though I suppose it's possible my mother's had the urge from time to time. Only recently though. Hmm....
