My LINKcat AccountHere we are in the middle of May, counting down to the beginning of summer, the end of the school year, the start of the Summer Reading Program, and the longest day, and we're stuck in this see-sawing weather. Having daytime highs in the fifties and freeze/frost warnings over the past weekend (and high winds. Let's not forget the high winds that actually created wind chills!) and then in a couple of days having highs in the mid-80s leaves one confused about many things. Such as how to dress and when it might be good time to take the winter survival gear out of the car, when it might be a good time to put the stocking cap and mittens away. It's hard to contemplate putting plants in the ground (or in my case, porch pots) at this point. Because there will undoubtedly be another frost/freeze warning and then those aforementioned plants will have to be covered. Somehow covering plants in the spring just doesn't seem right - in the Fall it's a different story. In the meantime, while we're waiting for Mother Nature to make up her mind about what season we are actually in, there are plenty of great books for you to read to help you while away the time. Enjoy!
