It is snowing heavily here in central Pennsylvania and I can't think of a better day to cast a wish to two, especially about travel.
For a long time I have dreamed of traveling to France, Corsica and southern Italy to see the transformation of Lavender, Helichryum and Bergamot plant materials into the exquisite essential oils I adore.
Meeting the oil distillers and experiencing their work first hand would be a wonderful life experience as well as a contribution to my work as an essential oil educator.
I will get there one day. I will, I will, I will.

I love lavender and would love to fill my garden with it... just that I am afraid of the bees it would attract, i'm not so keen on the scent indoors but the plant outside is fantastic, may all your wishes come true dear Liz.
