🥶 It’s cold out and, having lived in Tennessee for four years now, I’m not the robust Midwesterner I used to be. I mean, our overnight single-digit lows are still warmer than what many of you are experiencing during the day.
Are any of y’all even getting outside?!
We have a dog, which means I have to go out—like it or not. To keep my mind off how cold I am, I’ve begun looking for Winter berries. I’ve found a few Rose hips, along with many Privet berries, Chokeberry, and Holly berries. Edith Holden tells us in The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady that the birds go for the tastiest berries and seeds in winter and—unless hard-pressed by hunger—the ones I’ve found are rarely touched by them.
Stay warm!
