It’s getting harder to find herbals in my stash, which is both good and bad. This was a great lemon, so I’m sorry to see it go. But as I’ve had it for quite a while, it was time to say goodbye. I don’t have a lot to add to my original note about the actual tisane, just a little memento of the experience of saying goodbye to it.
I made a big pot for the entire family. It’s been raining all day, pretty much, and though we really can’t complain here given what’s happening on the East Coast, it’s still a sort of dreary winter day. After pretty much finishing the family room clean up project, in which we rediscovered we had a fire place (that had been blocked by bins of toys for way too long), and the kids rediscovering that they had sketch pads and pencils, they’re now sitting in front of a fire drawing.
This is how I had always imagined and hoped being a mother would be, and had sort of figured was a pipe dream once they discovered television and video games. I’m all gooey inside.
A nice memory to send this tisane out with.

Aww, sounds like it was a lovely day for your family!

That sounds lovely!
I love this reclaim your home project of yours. Sounds like it is going really well. Yay you!
It’s been great! There is still more to do, but great progress has been made. I’m hoping I can keep the momentum up and finish up over the next few weekends.
