icy blades of grass

The title really says it all. On my walk with Belle this afternoon, we were both marvelling at how cool the grass looks after an ice storm. Each individual blade of grass is covered in ice so that the overall effect is like...is like...oh, if only I were better with metaphors. Let's just say it's pretty darn cool. How'd they do that? I've lived in wintry climes before, of course, but I gotta say, I've never seen anything quite like this. Belly doesn't like it, though, cuz those spiky blades of grass hurt her paws.
