Mother Nature, You've Been Warned

There is a frost advisory tonight in the Burgh. You want to know WHY there is a frost advisory in very late April in Pittsburgh? Because of this:

And this:

Oh, and this:

And don't forget about this:

And this:

And finally, this:

Uh huh. The one and only time EVER that I manage to get the containers on the deck all spiffy before Memorial Day and we have a frost advisory. I swear on a package of gummy worms, if so much as one speck of frost or one single solitary snowflake touches one of my plants, I'm going to go Britney Spears Shaved Head Crazy on Mother Nature.

So...I am SUPER behind here, but it's May 1st and SNOWING here today. I know I am delirious from this fever, but I think maybe I might go completely insane if it doesn't warm up.

Your flowers are beautiful by the way. Gracie is jealous jealous. Since we're moving we haven't planted anything. Although since it's snowing its probably a good thing we haven't.

Ugh. I feel your pain. 39 degrees out right now. I've learned the hard way to not put plants out before the frost date, which is Mother's Day here in the Mile High.
