Looking outside now it is hard to believe that the picture above was just this morning. It warmed up to a still-chilly 52 degrees today and melted away last night’s magic.
It started snowing yesterday evening when the temperatures were already dancing around freezing. It continued dusting us for several hours, enough to actually accumulate. That is quite a feat here in Austin.
The snow wasn’t predicted. Instead we were supposed to hit a light freeze. I covered the more tender of the veggies beds, but left the spinach, chard, and carrots uncovered. I was a little worried at the scene this morning, but other than a slight burn on the chard, the veggies looked pretty good this afternoon.

It was so beautiful. Your vegetable garden looks great! But, how did the veggies fare? Anyone die?
I need to check my blog more often! The veggies all survived the first one. I lost a few on our last cold snap though – snap peas and napa cabbage.
