Rose hips are filled with health-giving benefits. :) Unfortunately the rose hip tea I purchase tastes more like dirt than anything else...but the tea I make from wild hips is fruity, tangy and bright orange in colour. I love it, but I have already used up this year's supply as I procrastinated in collecting them Laura Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485192062219909619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-48096716322649479312017-11-23T07:42:43.062-08:002017-11-23T07:42:43.062-08:00My mother made rose hip jam and rose hip syrup fro...My mother made rose hip jam and rose hip syrup from the Wild Rose.

As for difficult people - they wear me out and make me feel sad. I love the term "looping" - that is what I do when I worry about things. Next time I'll just have a cup of tea!

You have such a soft touch and kind heart.<br /><br /> I want to tell you today of my great aunt, my grandfathers sister who played a big roll n my life specifically when I was a teenager.

I was passing a Chinese restaurant, and I parked and went in. I asked the lovely hostess if I might have a pot of tea.

It reminds me of my Victorian era grandmothers when I was a child in the 1940's. They were such a positive force for goodness and bringing cheer - no matter what was going on. I am so thankful that I knew them, and I am thankful for your blog, too.
