O how my thoughts swelled into much a large comment! (I must have bent and reddeded Miss BD's poor ear! I do apologize!) I barnacled a whole another blog entry to this one. Oop! *pulls fingertips away from the the keyboard momentarily* It seems like I maybe be heading this comment-posting in that same direction!

Whenever I want to feel a little whimsical magic in my life I come and read your blog. I would have LOVED to have seen your basket full of Snapdragons! I'm so glad you are joining the Practical Magic party. I'm more excited to see what you will come up with rather than what I will come up with!! Lol! Oh and thank you for the amulet spell. I will whip those up for all three of my kitties...and don't think I didn't notice those Cinnavander buns!

We're so excited and honored to have you! And I had to say how much I absolutely adore your blog name, being that my son and I are huge (no, MASSIVE) Harry Potter fans and Luna is most definitely my favorite character. So much so that my little marmalade tabby kitty is named after her.<br /><br />Coincidences can be quite delightful sometimes and it's positively magic that you just picked up a copy of Practical Magic then found our party.<br /><br />I so enjoyed my visit here and thank you ever so much for the cat protection charm!

Lavender shot...Good day, Miss Merry <b>BlakkDuchess</b>! <br /><br /><i>Lavender shots</i>? Is that legal? lol! Calling on a bounty of purple after a math test <i>IS</i> simply genius, though, and, dare I say it? <i>Intoxicating</i>! What better way indeed to guarantee relaxation. <br /><br />And I couldn't agree with you more: Never has there been a summer where flowers have been so abundant and abundantly enticing! At times, it is as if they are calling my name ~~and obviously yours, too!<br /><br />Oo! Oo! Oo! Any extra lavender flowers? You’ll not be sorry if you put them in this receipt! (Actually, it’s the filling that is the pleaser. So if batching up the bundough, below, isn’t in your cards, “crack” open a Pillsbury cinnamon roll tube (in the dairy case) and move directly to “filling.”)<br /><br /><b>Quick Cinnavender Buns</b><br /><br />Dough:<br />1/4 cup soft butter<br />2 tablespoon sugar<br />3 cups flour<br />1 tablespoon baking powder<br />1 egg<br />1 teaspoon lemon juice<br />1 cup of milk<br />1 teaspoon vanilla extract<br /><br />Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, blend butter and sugar before adding in flour and baking powder. Combine until mixture is fine and crumbly. In a second smaller bowl, whisk egg, milk, lemon juice and vanilla. Create a well in the flour mixture, where you’ll mix (Be brief!) in the milk mixture to form a stiff dough. Do not over-knead. On a floured board, pat out dough to form a 1/2 inch thick rectangle.<br /><br />Filling:<br />1/4 cup soft butter<br />4 tablespoons fresh lavender flowers (2 T if using dried blossoms)<br />1/2 cup brown sugar<br />2 tablespoons cinnamon powder<br /><br />After buttering the rolled out dough, sprinkle it with lavender, brown sugar and cinnamon. Starting at widest edge, tightly roll up the rectangle. Seal the end edge with a brush of milk and pinching. Cut evenly into 12 large coins. Bake for 20 minutes, then check to see if they need 5 minutes more, because sometimes they do. (Not too much with the ovening, though~~ soft is best!) You’ll enjoy these warm or not, but mostly warm!<br /><br />Postscript: I bet a newty eye you do well on the exam!Cellar Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00137997091501885347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093538639912934185.post-85310492022824322402010-08-05T11:39:56.642-07:002010-08-05T11:39:56.642-07:00Yay! Snapdragons!!! =D
Hmmm... there must be somet...Yay! Snapdragons!!! =D<br />Hmmm... there must be something in the air, possessing us to pick loads of flowers... After my math exam yesterday, I stopped to pick a large amount of Lavender on my way home... every vase I own & a rather tall shot glass are now bursting with the fragrant beauties! =D<br /><br />I'm so glad to hear that Spot made it home! There is nothing worse than not knowing where our furry darlings have disappeared off to... T_T<br /><br />Thank you for the pet protection charm... Looks like my kitties will be getting additions to their collars! ^-^TheBlakkDuchesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12577166901825200684noreply@blogger.com
