I have only seen frost only 3 times here in San Francisco. That was for 3 days in December 1988. Now, we have the usual 70 degree summer days and 60 or so at night.

It hit 100F today thank you very much, I'll trade. I do have a pretty kiler recipe for bean soup though
Bean Soup ....... Straight from the block party! 1 pound Navy beans
1 1/2 pounds butt end of ham
8 cups cold water
2 cups celery, diced
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup potatoes, diced
1 1-pound can tomatoes, drained
2 teaspoons minced parsley
Salt and pepper to taste Soak beans overnight in enough water to cover.
Drain off the water. Add fresh water and cook until beans are tender.
