"Sixteen sprigs a penny..."

It's that time of year again... lavender festivities abound.

I was somewhat disappointed that my mommalou wouldn't be here for it this time (since she came a few weeks ago).  Turns out, if you get sick and you're in your 40's, The Lovely Barbara still comes a callin'... actually, that's nothing new to me as every time I have a major flare up, she's a ready and rearin' to jump on a plane.  I usually don't let her though, but this time with every one gone... especially with my Maddy girl for the first time in years (yes I'm a cryin'), I obliged and she'll be here soon.

We'll hopefully be able to drag ourselves out of bed Saturday morning.

"Here’s your sweet lavender
sixteen sprigs a penny
that you’ll find my ladies
will smell as sweet as any"

Lavender Sellers’s Cry, London England CA 1900
