Do you have a mortar and pestle to crush the lavender? I use it for

crushing up cardamom pods also.

When you bake with lavender, you won't believe how good the house smells.

 

 

I do.....and I also use lavender in tea.

I love the smell of it in general. Thanks for the reminder! :-)

but you're in CA, right? It will be a while for us here. I need a new bunch

coming out, the redbuds are pretty close behind. but we're zone 5. AmyF

I have a lavender cookie recipe in the cookie file, a lavender sweet bread in

the sweet bread file and I make lavender tea. Take some green tea or a little

black tea and mix some crushed dried lavender in the tea ball and make tea.

It's good as an iced tea. Very refreshing. My light isn't good right now.

Making typo errors.LOL
