Unexpected Snow!

We’ve had constant snow storms here for about three days. It really has been beautiful to watch. Snuggling under blankets and watching the snow swirl round, and the city grind to a halt. This is what my kitchen garden looks like. You can see how deep the snow is because the box bushes are almost covered. Everything is frozen. Even the flag on the kids’ pirate ship is frozen! The schools are closed and the severe weather warnings tell us not to go out unless absolutely necessary. There are people on skis! Really. I cut some herbs today and they had about 1/4 inch of ice covering them. I’m worried about my Camellias. They look beyond repair.

With the Daffodils poking through last week I thought the Winter was over, but apparently it’s not.
