on tenterhooks

Oh sure.

You look good now.

Now, after a week of warm weather and gentle breezes, you're all puffed up, fluffed out, ready to burst wide open and strut your stuff.

But how will you feel tomorrow? Tattered? Mushy? Spent? After the hard freeze and gusty winds they're predicting for tonight. Which, btw, is as it should be in late March in NYC.

I fear for the crops of crabapples,

peaches,

and Juneberries.

Without flowers there can be no fruit.

Put on your parkas, all you flowering trees. I'll check on you in the morning.
