I woke up to sunshine this morning at 38 degrees. I always listen to the weather radio as I am making my bed. The words ‘scattered frost’ kept popping up as the forecast was given. I have new flowers planted and I didn’t cover them. I will have to check them out after a bit and see if I will have to replace them.
You can see the squirrels have been digging there. Ornery things!! The geraniums are bright orange although they appear red in the photo. I couldn’t believe how expensive flowers are this year. I have a couple of planters in the back that I will have to take a picture of. This is all of the garden that I can have. I am hoping my son in law’s brother plants a lot of tomatoes this year. (Hint!)
I left early this morning to go to a church sale. Lots of good bargains there. Then I came home and fixed a chocolate pie for tomorrow. My daughter and SIL will be coming for lunch after church. Roast beef, mashed potatoes and green beans on the menu with hot biscuits.
I hope you all have a lovely peaceful weekend! Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
hope your flowers survived! enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteWe're at 50 now with a high of 69 ahead. It's been cloudy for days...just brooding. I think if it were warmer we'd be getting quite the storm. Love you flowers but hear you on prices. Spring has been so fickle I don't know if we'll even get plants this year.
ReplyDeleteWarmer here too..I have placed artificial flowers at our cemetery..they take so much care because of dry summers here. I like the look but not when they die off. Hope the flowers are okay..I agree about the squirrels..they can be such a pain. Have a great weekend Sis.. Prayers for you always, XOXO
ReplyDeleteChilly here too . . . frost for the past two mornings. I covered things, lovely sight to see sheets, tarps laced here and there throughout our plantings.
ReplyDeleteNeighbors must wonder about me!
I hope the frost didn't get them.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day Beth.. Yes may your flowers be okay.
ReplyDeleteDarn those little tree rats.....the flowers are so pretty!! Have a wonderful weekend!!
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers Beth , frost at night hope they were ok . Such a shame when that happens .I haven't seen a squirrel in my garden for over a year now.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Weekend hope the weather improves , Sunshine at least.
Hugs Sheila x
Sounds like a yummy Sunday dinner. Oh those squirrels! I don't know about flower prices...yet. May have to keep it limited.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had sunshine today. : )
ReplyDeleteOh I know what you mean about those squirrels. I'm not a fan of them.
I'll be over for lunch after church tomorrow too. : )
You and Ken would be most welcome!!
ReplyDeleteSquirrels can cause a lot of damage with their digging. Your flowers look as if the cold didn't bother them. I, too, am looking forward to garden tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites! Geraniums and chocolate pie!!! Looks like the plants survived the weather, but not sure what the squirrels were looking for. One time I thought squirrels were digging up my new plants, but it was birds. They actually dug up my tulip bulbs! Enjoy your pie with your family tomorrow. Linda@Wetcreek Blog
ReplyDeleteI love the pretty red flowers. Chocolate pie is my favorite! Enjoy a nice visit with your daughter and son-in-law. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt is cold like that here, too, Beth. Awful Spring weather. Where is our sunshine? We have more rain right now!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are pretty and I hope SOMEONE gets the hint and plants some tomatoes for you- xo Diana
Beth, I love your flowers there. That squirrel will probably keep digging....maybe some red pepper sprinkled around might help. The sun finally came out today, went back in and now it's out again .Hooray. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteWeather wise it was very schizophrenic day. As I left for work at 6:15 the rain was coming down in sheets, by noon it was 75 with nary a cloud to be seen.
ReplyDeleteSave me a biscuit.
Pretty geraniums! Squirrels can be rotten buggers:(
ReplyDeleteI didn't get my roses covered either but they seem to be doing fine. Hope your flowers are okay. They look great. Now that's my kind of lunch.
ReplyDeleteThe weather is just such a guessing game. It snowed around here the other day!
ReplyDeleteHope the warm weather we have suddenly gotten since yesterday comes your way!! :)
ReplyDeletethose flowers are beautiful even with the squirrel devils attack. Hope you warm up soon.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty flowers
ReplyDeleteWell that's a little bit warmer for you but not much. Hope your flowers were okay. I'm always finding peanuts buried in my beds from squirrels. Your meal sounds yummy.
ReplyDeleteGeraniums are so cheerful aren't they, I've planted quite a few this year and also prefer the bright red or orange , It's usually cats that dig up our patches.
ReplyDeleteI quite fancy some roast meat and potato, yummy.bet you enjoyed it.
