I came home from a late rehearsal this week to find my husband in the front yard with his headlamp on. There was a "hard freeze" forecasted that night, which would ruin our 10 oranges. Adam put our tent over the tree to protect it.
Very clever! I thought. Then I noticed an extension cord sticking out from under the tent. Hmm. Mysterious...
Turns out a tent was not enough for our diva-esque citrus tree. An electric blanket was underneath to keep it nice and toasty warm.
Luckily, I reminded Adam to turn off the sprinklers.
Otherwise, we might be saying, "Fried oranges, anyone?" ;)
