ABOUT OUR FAVORITE AUTHOR
What does the Palm in "A Palm for Mrs. Pollifax" signify?

According to http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/palm  lsit "Palm" as:
5.        the reward of honor due to a victor:
In oratory she yields the palm to no one.
6.        victory; triumph; success:
He carried off the palm by sheer perseverance.
Now these two meanings fit in well with the story line.
