It's Brrrrrrr Cold!


Oh my my my my my... started the fireplace this morning because my three layers of clothing was just not enough to keep me warm. The weather this week has announced the arrival of fall. Actually, it skipped over fall and announced winter is fast approaching! My poor flowers and garden may not survive before it gets back up into a warmer 60 degree temperature. Right now I think it's 40 maybe. Last night got down close to freezing. Hopefully though the ground stays warm enough to keep my plants alive.

I brought in all the "loose" plants last night - those that are currently planted in moveable pots - a couple tomatoes, flowers I started from seed and are finally blooming, a couple pepper plants we started from seed, and my tiny little basil plant. That poor thing needs a bigger pot and maybe it'll produce enough to make a full Italian Basil Pasta Salad. Last time I made that (for Hub's 30th Birthday Bash) I had to get some from mom... her basil plant it doing so well it's turning into a bush!

I love this crazy weather though. I love getting all wrapped up in blankets and sweaters and curling up at night in sweats. I love love love it!

Here's to the Fall Season! :)
