"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Orchids....

...ice cream and a Sunday afternoon date. It started with a book about orchids and ended with ice cream in Watertown MA.

Paul recently read Orchid Fever: A Tale of Love, Lust, and Lunacy  about the crazy world of orchids and the passionate people who collect and protect them. He learned that orchids have been used in ice cream for years....creating a bit of a love potion.

Then just yesterday there was an article in the Boston Globe about a Dizin FruttiBerri in Watertown featuring Persian Ice-Cream and Frozen yogurt....made with orchids.

The owner was just delightful and told us eating his ice cream was like kissing your first love.






I chose Parsley, Rosewater and Zafran, and Pomegranate....all made with orchids.

Thanks Paul!
