[Fire. Almost.]-The chicken balls from the local grocery store deli Chinese food counter (aka the second best place in town for Chinese food) can be had for 50% off in the cold section of the deli and reheated at home, but they are really oily

That was Atlanta. Granted, as a rule, they get snow even less often than we do, but that wasn't helped by the fact that nobody bothered doing any pre-storm prep. (I went to school there and have lots of people still there; luckily, I don't think any of them spent the night in a Home Depot.)
Meanwhile, my brother moves to the beach and he's gotten snow FOUR TIMES this winter. We got one snowfall that was enough to accumulate and it didn't even cover the grass properly. /grumpy
We haven't got much snow this winter either, we've been quite clear and sunny for the most part. Also horrendously dry considering I'm on a frigging island and minutes from a waterfront. I've been running loads of straight water through the coffee machine and letting the kettle boil just to add humidity so it's easier to breathe. :-P
I know, right? All I can think is it's some kind of feature to let a pie crust cook from the bottom as well as the top. The holes are tiny, and unless you hold it up to the light they can't even be seen.
I did eat some chicken balls, only a few because I only reheated about 4 and am holding the rest for another time because they are really really oily. But really good.
Still snowing here, it's supposed to warm up and turn to rain though. Hope it doesn't. I miss snow. :-/
Little tiny holes, evenly spaced, so they're deliberately there. All I can think is that they're to let heat in to cook the bottom of a pie crust more evenly..
It's bucketing rain here now, but I think we got at least 3 inches before it started raining.

Also, I seem to be hungry again. Hm.
Yay snow! I want some. *pout*

Didn't you get lots of snow down your way this year? The snow in the southern US keeps showing up in our news up here for causing havoc.
