Happy Naw-Ruz!
Last weekend (3/15- 3/16) our area experienced an unusual deep frozen temperature dive (13-18F for two nights). All those brave flowers opened at that time as recorded in this blog below were frozen dead. I had planed to cut some beautiful daffodils in my garden for decorating my Naw-Rúz table. But this deep-dive frozen temperature killed almost all of them. I have never seen anything like this for the past 30+ years living here though we often had early spring temperature drop. I heard many friends said the same. But, there is always a "but", unbelievably, a few flowers survived. I believe it was because a prayer I said in advance to ask God to save some for my Naw-Rúz table. God is always generous in answering our prayers, however trivial. Thank you God! I just like to write down this episode in my life for future reference so I won't forget to Whom I should attribute my thanks for the blessings I received freely.
