Blossom's Wild Herb Lavender Farm

This was so wonderful, I just had to share the recipe, of course you can use one cup of lavender sugar in place of the regular sugar.  Need a recipe for lavender sugar?  Simply place about 1/3 cup culinary lavender flowers in a ball jar and cover with sugar, in   about 2 weeks the sugar will absorb the fragance and tast.  Strain if you do not desire the lavender buds.   Later this week I am planning to try using Splenda in place for part of the sugar.  If you need culinary lavender Click HERE
Ingredients:
2 lemons, juiced and zested
2 cups white sugar or lavender sugar (for less sweet use 1 1/12 cups sugar)  
4 cups milk ( I used 1 %)
2 TB  Peach schnapps liqueur or other fruit based liqueur
 
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, stir together lemon juice and zest with sugar until smooth. Stir in milk and liqueur. Pour into a 9x9 inch dish and place in freezer, stirring once when it begins to harden, until firm, 2 hours. Or pour into the freezer canister of an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturers' directions.  My ice cream maker took 45 minutes.....   AND YUM!

This is a recipe that was adapted and change to my liking from allrecipes website.

A tapestry of sensational succulents, will last for years. Use as a wreath or as a table centerpiece.

Handcrafted nine to eleven inch sphagnum moss wreath - the actual size with plants is over 11" in diameter. Planted with winter hardy living succulents from our very large collection of hens and chickens and stonecrops.
This wreath: Easy to care for for and will last for many years. Comes with separator legs and 6" long hanging chain. Can be used as a center piece or hanging. Plant mix might vary form the one pictured on our website, but we insure that it will be a large amount different textures and hues.

A tapestry with sensational succulents! The plants have a way of capturing the imagination with beautiful flowers, and interesting foliage and textures, making them irresistable.

Forgetting to water is not a problem. They thrive on neglect, so if mom or sending a special gift for someone that loves plants but tends to forget they need love too, this is a wonderful idea! But they will need water on occasion. Best to hang part shade.
