Lavender | A Note

June 18th  •  Posted in Lifestyle

Last week during a relaxed afternoon spent mainly in the car and parks, I spotted a little place were some lavender was growing and even though I never saw some real lavender in my life before, I knew I wasn’t wrong. I couldn’t help myself from going there and getting some to bring home with me. I just love how lavender looks and smells, so I was so happy to go home and get a rope to tie all the stems together. I’m just keeping it in my room at the moment and smelling it when I feel to, but I’ll may improvise some little lavender sachets for my wardrobe when it will be dry. Flowers always make me in a better mood, and going out to just do simple things like getting some flowers or eating a delicious soy ice cream, seriously works wonders for me and my mood. I’m having a tough time with my over-thinking propensity and some other health issues that are really worrying me, and sometimes I just need to forget about schedules, working hours and stuff, and simply go out and do those simple things that keep my mind engaged in good, positive thoughts. I find with me flowers, natural spots, gardens, ice creams, spending a relaxed afternoon with the boyfriend and baking always help.

  • I love the smell of lavender, we have some in the garden but I never thought to bring some inside (not sure why!) so I think I might just do that! Thanks for the idea 🙂

  • Lavender is so beautiful, and the scent is absolutely lovely. It always makes me feel relaxed. I made some lavender sachets a while ago, but I also think it’s delicious in baking.
