Winter is Still Here

The Bradford Pears are in heavy bud - a few are in full bloom. The wild cherries are in bloom, too. This didn't stop the temperatures from dropping to the freezing level several nights. We even rosted hot dogs and marshmalls over the fire in the drawing room today. What fun!

Have you seen the huge marshmallows that are in the store now? They're almost two inches across! You roast and eat the outside, then roast them again. Sort of inconvenient, but just think of the gooey yumminess on a sweet potato casserole!
