Happy Tuesday, plus happy International Nurses Day (which marks Florence Nightingale’s birthday, and is the end of Nurse’s Week, which started on National Nurses Day last week). What fragrance are you wearing?
By pure chance I’m in The Different Company I Miss Violet, which I’d nearly forgotten.
Reminder: 5/15 is the International Day of Families…
Guerlain has launched Royal Extract II, a limited edition luxury fragrance exclusive to Harrods…
From Nesti Dante's Romantica Collection, Tuscan Wisteria and Lilac Soap. "Nesti Dante is inspired by nature to create soaps that the skin assimilates. Scented with the subtle and earthy aromas these soaps calm and moisturize the skin. The lather on this soap is amazing and foamy." 250g for $10 at Yvonne Estelle's.
To celebrate “Eat What You Want Day” (although I’m pretty sure I celebrate that most days), some cooking videos. First, a 5 minute excerpt from a documentary on cooking with flowers, from Taste France magazine. Then, below the jump, Iced Lavender Vanilla Latte, followed by Rose and Pistachio Flavoured Kulfi (this recipe calls for gulkand, which is a rose petal jam, and for kulfi molds, although you can use cups or ramekins instead).
Next, we have edible flower pressed shortbread cookies (you can find the whole recipe by clicking through to YouTube; it calls for purchasing edible flowers but you can find a nice list of edible flowers here). Last, edible flower ice cubes.
More recipes: Culinary Lavender, Fig Leaf Syrup, Bronze Goddess Ice Cream, Balmain’s Vent Vert Salad and Chicken, Jasmine and Osmanthus Tea Sorbets, Candied Buddha’s Hand
It’s Monday, if it matters. RIP Jerry Stiller. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m wearing Marni Rose over Tauer Rose Delight.
