I knew I had heard the term "blackberry winter" but I couldn't remember what it was so I Googled it. Just in case you want to know, it's a southern phrase referring to a brief cold spell that occurs when the blackberries are blooming (about mid-May).
It's about 20 degrees outside my front door right now and I'm wondering just how cold can it get in the south in mid-May? What are they considering a "cold spell"? 50's? 60's? Wimps!
