I imagine that cherry tree honey is quite wonderful. I just picked up some of my favored wildflower honey at a tea shop. The owner said the bee keeper was in last weekend with the hives and filled the bottles with them. Can it get any fresher?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659897268236249304.post-75387884113101555792010-10-02T02:30:46.055+13:002010-10-02T02:30:46.055+13:00I loved how you wrote it was a 'celebration of...I loved how you wrote it was a 'celebration of pink'. So true. There's something about a tree lined with blooming cherry trees that both calms and refreshes the soul. Perhaps only the dogwood comes close to doing that. (Do you have dogwood trees in NZ?) You're so right that flowers and trees mark so many of life's passages. Lovely post, Joan, truly lovely.Kittie Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756250649095903317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659897268236249304.post-20838078974513430122010-10-01T23:51:52.815+13:002010-10-01T23:51:52.815+13:00You are so right Juliet.
