dolllady aka Pam says:Perfect pick for the upcoming Texas weather! It looked like you are already shivering. I saw my Iowa hometown temp this morning. At 9 am it was 27° and it will be 19° tonight. Our problem is it just bottoms out all at once. We are expecting 90° today and 50+° high tomorrow. Now back to this lovely pick! It is a perfectly icy weather pick! I hope we don’t see weather as icy as this pick. I may have to imbibe in a few trinkets from your pick.

Mary - Sweet Chick says:Hopefully I can finally leave a comment…most efforts have been unsuccessful. Anyone else having this issue with fresh picks lately?
Anyway, love, love this icy beauty! Instant fav!

dolllady aka Pam says:Congrats on your luscious cold winter water pick! The one positive about South Texas winter weather I haven’t seen the Gulf waters freeze into ice. I’m sure the creek that ran next to my yard is frozen over by now.

Melody F says:Good depiction of icy waters, which I hope we don’t get! I have balance problems and I don’t want to slip and fall! But it is a beauty of a POD, so congrats!
