I've just discovered your blog via another that I visit. It's great to meet another Canadian blogger. We have family that live on Vancouver Island and we'll be visiting later in the Fall.

Just have to make sure not too much though as one can then wake with a headache.<br /><br />I too need to get harvesting some of my lavender for sachets. They keep clothes moths away as well as smelling good.
