Has it really been almost a year since John and I dressed in costume and did a photo shoot for COUNTRY RUSTIC MAGAZINE at the Felix Valle wash house? The time has certainly flown by.
I shared the making of the wreaths HERE in the Ste. Genevieve Journal last year.
But there is more to the article than just making a wreath. There is mention of "LE JARDIN POTAGER" or the French kitchen garden, much like the one at the Felix Valle. I actually collected more information than I had space for. . .and since then, my interest in these gardens has grown. . I am familiar with the English gardens, but as I have said before, life in the French colonies is like a whole new world to me. I'll write more about in another post. . .
And. . .if you follow this link, you'll find a whole chart on THE LANGUAGE OF HERBS.
Just wanted to again thank Donna for allowing us to enjoy the wonderful setting at the Felix Valle wash house for the article. . .We had so much fun that it sure didn't feel like work! Hoping to do it again one day and invite everyone to join in!
