Mr. A and I run a 5K this past weekend.
My legs still hurt a bit but I had such a great time.
Good time...when sweating like crazy?
Yes...because...
Yes...because...
...the race was across a 4-acre lavender field.
The aroma of lavender filled the air and made me forget the pain
and very hot summer weather, even at 8:00 am.
This is the field, isn't it lovely?
I purchased a bottle of wonderful lavender essential oil at the site of the race.
I feel in heaven when I smell the amazing scent.
I began to think how serene lavender can be for interiors too.

I am in love with this colour..it use to be my favourite..then I became a blue girl..but you have me wanting more lavender in my life. xoxoxo Hugs for a great new week. xo
ReplyDeleteThis is a very nice color, a color you don't see often in homes, but I do. Yes, I have it in my bathroom... one of these days I would like to post it on my blog. Wow, a gorgeous Chandelier and the third photo really caught my eye... a very lovely room. I have a friend that grows lavender and uses it in different ways..... in fact she throws on a Big Festival that many people attend too.
ReplyDeleteMuch Joy*
