a nightly update first our action yesterday... hunting elder flowers. it was really a kind of hunt. while you two managed to make a gras field in the front of the tikkis garden the bottom stayed unchanged wild. which i love. and somewhere hidden between fir trees, evy, other more obscure trees and an ancient wall full of spiderwebs we could see the elderflowers floeting in the air seading this incredible smell of spring. but of course they where fare away, so the hunting part started. you with a kind of saw/hook pulled them down and i cut them standing on my toetipps with a verry long garden scissors. it was jolly good fun ;) giggling and woowing we went back up to make partly sirop for cold and less sunny days against all the upcomming colds, and partly we cut them to dry them and make tee. wee had a sneak peak on what the tea would taste like. dear n. made some lemone, honey, fresh elder flower tee. mhmmmm.
the wohle air was full of the yellow dust they spread, best perfum ever, but you had to sneeze and my eyes started iching ...
i'm looking forward to the result of the sirop. now the flowers are ate the window in my living room to dry( so charlie wont play with them and spread them alover your place) and a honey cake is in the oven... i just need some homey comfort after all this running around and doin stuff today...
kisses s.
