{ Lavender Days }

we finally had some rain ~

the gardens were in need of a nice, cool drink.

 

our Lavender is huge this year, due to the hot, dry weather we've been having as of late...

 

 

it is just beginning to bloom ~
the very tips of the buds are opening today.

the entire garden smells like heaven!

 



my dear Friend, Nancy

will be coming here on Saturday, June 22nd

to teach a class on how to make

Lavender Wands,

as seen below ~

 



if you'd like to come out for the class, email me at not4got@aol.com & I'll sign you up ~

~ the cost of the class is only $10.00

Nancy will be bringing along her delectable
lavender pound cake with lemon herb butter

lemonade with hibiscus/lavender syrup

and other herb-infused treats as well ~

 



 

 I'll make sweet tea with lavender sugar,

and lavender/blueberry muffins...

 

 

 

Minew approves of the class and can't wait to greet you inside the Garden Gate...

 

 

...she loves her belly tickled

and will play hide-and-seek in the strawberry patch with you!

 

 



just outside the gate, in the wild grapevine ~

a mother Mockingbird has built her nest and her hatchlings have arrived ...

 

here are two with one yet to pop out:

 



and here is Mother Mockingbird ~

keeping a close eye on our little Minew below ...

 



 

I do hope you'll come learn how to make the Lavender Wands ~

the shop will surely smell wonderful from scent of the lavender...

~ come be inspired!!
