Will it or won't it?

Frost that is. We've got a frost advisory tonight. We spent time this evening bringing in all the houseplants. When we moved in July, we just parked them all under the big tree in the backyard and didn't think about them. But suddenly, we needed to find homes for them all inside. AACK. They will need rearranged to make things a bit more manageable but they're all in. Most of these are plants that we have 'acquired' over the years. Some have been gifts (usually when someone was moving), some pulled out of dumpsters, the grapefruit trees that sprouted on the edge of the compost pile and are now 5 feet tall, spider plants that each child received in school from their 3/4 grade teacher during the science unit on growing things- you know- we acquire plants.

K9 is actually excited that he has our venerable jalapeno in his room. We've had that pepper plant for about 4 years now and it has really done well. We planted in a huge pot and just move it in and out with the weather. It is loaded with peppers right now although it lost 4 or 5 during the move inside.

I was hoping to get out to the garden and pick a few more peppers but I ran out of time. I'm hoping that since we're up on a hill that we'll be safe but the garden got hit with that late frost this spring. We'll see. It will do what it does and I can't stop it.
