Surviving the "Lowcountry Freeze": What Really Matters

Ah, the Lowcountry. Where we bask in mild winters, sipping sweet tea on porches well into December. But then it happens: the weatherman whispers the dreaded words—“freeze warning.” Cue the collective panic.

Suddenly, grocery carts overflow with bread and milk (why, exactly?), neighbors swap survival tips like we’re preparing for a polar vortex, and garden centers sell out of frost blankets overnight. It’s practically tradition. But let’s take a breath and sort out the practical from the overblown.

What to Actually Worry About During a Freeze

1. Your Plants

   • The Lowcountry’s lush greenery isn’t used to temperatures below 32°F. While hardy plants like camellias, hollies, and palms can handle a little cold, tropical favorites like…

Realistic Alternatives to New Year’s Resolutions

Make Resolutions you can keep

We have been making the same mistake for thousands of years. While we are not making such intense promises such as sacrificing to Roman gods, we tend to get carried away with our lofty New Year’s resolutions that we continue to fail at keeping. In fact, most of our resolutions get abandoned by mid-February. Realistically speaking, New Year’s resolutions do not work. There are many reasons why including how vague the resolution is, or unrealistic and overwhelming the plans we make can be. When something seems so daunting and overwhelming, we are ultimately discouraged at even trying to make it happen.

This year, instead of waisting your time writing down unrealistic resolutions, give these alternatives a shot.
