Some chit chat.

That winter vortex was brutal for everyone in the US this week. My brother says it’s still only in the single digits where he lives. They actually got down to over 30 below there with wind chills temps even lower! We did get down to freezing temps here but we’re already bouncing back. Warming each day until we hit the 70s again. I know I’m not the only one longing for spring. I forgot to watch the telly! Did the groundhog see his shadow?????

This time of year is when I look to my outdoor greenery. It was time to cut back the Sega so I could get ready to harvest the seeds.

Here’s the first steps I’ve taken

I trimmed back the leaves to expose the seed ball. I’m going to wait another week or two to harvest them so I left the leaves from the surrounding smaller sega’s to protect it from the cold.

Thought I’d also give you an update on Flora. She’s hanging in there.

A little worse for wear from the cold. The frost and freezing temps did get to her outer leaves.

And something else for this time of year is oranges. My miniature orange tree is so laden with these tasty fruits that the branches are drooping.

Don’t they look yummy!

I thought I’d leave you with these gorgeous photos of a sunset from my back yard.
