Claire:

This made me weak with giggles...so often I'm out with the dogs in the early 
AM and see something that needs deadheading, which leads to running for the 
pruners, which leads to running for the cultivator to grab some weeds, which 
leads to running for the spade to tweak the placement of a plant or two, to 
being caught by someone
in my bathrobe, covered in dirt and perspiring copiously. The worst part is 
seeing their expression that I'm still in my bathrobe at 10AM! I'm sure I 
have a well-deserved reputation of being rather eccentric. 

When not gardening in my bathrobe, I'm in a comfy mens' shirt (shirt-tail 
type - great ventilation) and slightly stretchy (tho hot in July) khaki pants.

Fun question, Claire...
