WOW!!! Hopefully it will all be gone shortly and you won't lose them!! I lost 2 regular palm trees a couple of years ago when we got a dusting but it stayed cold for a few days. My smaller ones survived but they are still struggling to make a full recovery.
I'm preparing a large pot of chicken soup for the snow we are getting tomorrow.
Local customs can be such fun! Do you throw it at it, or serve it sedately in bowls and stuff - more like an offering sort of thing than a deluge? ;)
-LOL- I think MagicQ must use it to thaw out his palms, or his palm trees, depending on how frosty it is in his back yard.

"Chicken Soup for the Snow" is a good book
**clue trail alert** *prick up ears* The one by Chefsmartypants? on the radio?
Well, that's the first I've heard of Chefsmartypants, or Erica Wides' radio program, so technically, no, not the clue trail I had in mind. ?? But it does look kinda familiar.....
Ideas are not fixed, nor should they be; we live in model-dependent reality.

Well after all that snow melted and we had sunshine yesterday.......it decided to snow again today......not sticking so far.
That small one has actually been here for over 5 years but every Winter it almost bites the.......snow
It looks like it will survive this one and maybe even start getting taller like the other 3
The 2 on the other side of my pond are actually 6 feet tall and they never slowed down growing and that other one is over 10 feet tall but it has been here so long I forget what year I planted it.
The first year I ever tried growing these I had planted on the same spot on the other side of that pond but the first Winter for them it was down as low as 5 degrees here and the pond was frozen so much that we could run and jump on it and slide to the other side.......both Palm trees died and the Monkey tree I planted the same year died.
Since then I mainly just planted Giant Sequoia trees here and they should still be here on my 3000th birthday
If this global freezing continues I think I will go start all my cars and let them run until they are out of gas

Well, it's almost time to start preparing my vegetable garden. I'm behind on my planning and need to get busy. In the meantime I seem to have lost my copy of Irma Bambauer's The Joy of Cooking but for pure reading pleasure I can recommend The Food Lab by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt which is not about a dog though it could be.
