That Other Four-Letter Word

S.N.O.W.

No kidding.  I woke up to these views from the back door this morning.

That’s a tomato plant in the back corner of the yard.  Guess I won’t be harvesting any more tomatoes this year.

    Laurie plurked this last night and I just couldn’t believe it. I think you should move on back to Massachusetts.

    Oh, oh, oh…….bring it on. I’m so tired of the heat and humidity. Fat chance we’ll see any snow this year … you know, with “global warming” and all. Maybe you can get O and Mc to promise no more snow for you. They are promising everything else. Sorry, didn’t mean to go there. Just so very tired of it all.

    wow it’s beautiful but stinks about the tomatoes.

    Guess you’ll be having green tomato pie instead. (follow a recipe for apple pie; it tastes surprisingly similar)

    Oh my goodness! It’s still going to be in the 80′s here this week. But the snow is so pretty.

    I was picking raspberries yesterday evening, but it could look like that in my MN yard any day.
    sigh

    Crazy, no? At least it didn’t stick on the pavement–no shoveling!

    You have such a pretty backyard. I really enjoyed knitting there.

    Arghhhhhh!!!!! Before Thanksgiving is hard enough but before Halloween????? Does your DS appreciate autumns in southern California yet? I bet he’s still wearing his shorts to the beach between classes nowadays.

    eek. I think it’s a bit early, but WOW – :) I just finished eating an heirloom tomato, avocado and bacon sandwich (yum)and the idea of no more tomatoes quite frankly scares me!

    Really pretty view, Susan. It is still in the 80s here in the daytime.
