Piphens7: I'm in the middle part of Michigan (near Flint if you'd like to look at the map). We get temps anywhere from the 32F which is your 0 to our zero. I'm not sure what that translates to in Celcius, but it's pretty cold! Fortunately, it usually doesn't stay there for long. We will get rain, but I prefer snow, which we usually have from around Christmas to sometime in March. Most winters we get a thaw or two and some rain, but I like it white much better than damp, dreary and gray with a side of dead grass. Do you get snow?
Oh, and today's treats? Leftover veggie scraps, peels and crushed eggshell. Yum!
