Went to the lavendar festival today and there's just something about that beautiful mauve that's as soothing as its herbal properties.
I was sitting on the grass, learning how to make a lavendar wand by weaving ribbon around the 9 strands of lavendar.
In the heat, with the bees, and a bunch of women and children getting a quick lesson on how to make lavendar wands, it seemed like the only thing missing were big pastel floppy sun hats and mint juleps.
It felt like such a wonderfully old fashioned way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
My favourite photo is the one in the middle. I like the hint of the wooden chair against the field of purple.

Oh, this looks heavenly. I'd rather be there than at the "ball" any day! M
Okay. You come here and make Lavendar wands and kill spiders and I'll eat fresh sushi with the Emporer/ess. But, just for 1 day cuz I like it here okay?
