Let it ... snow?

It's not quite Thanksgiving and we were hit with a snowstorm today.

This is highly unusual where we live. Sure, we get snow, but typically not before the leaves have fallen off the trees.

This picture doesn't do it justice, but every other photo that I took, in an effort to document this beautiful, strange weather anomaly, is just a blur of white. In the end, we got around five or six inches of floppy wet white stuff.

So, I checked out the garden. Mid-day, nearly everything was blanketed. I dug around under snow and cut what I expect will be the last of the spinach, and got a bunch of cilantro too. Nearby, peeking through, I spied some thyme:

I also pulled up the last of the turnips. The purple hue of the roots look particularly fresh against the white light of the day!

We'll probably roast them...
