Go out into the gardens
(beautiful flowing dress and dancing slippers optional)
Gather fragrance-bearing beauty with abandon
(organic only, please)
All colors
All shapes
All beautiful
Then . . .
Shed the petals
Pour into a bowl
Add boiling water and steep for six hours
(Be prepared to relax and enjoy the amazing aroma)
Drain and reserve the rosewater
~~ a shade of pink I can only call LUSCIOUS ~~
and cook as you would any jelly.
(recipe link below)
Ladle into jars and cool.
Stand back in amazement at the beauty . . .
then taste
(preferably dolloped onto a freshly-baked scone).
And They Dined Happily Ever After

Extravagant...on the order of the Lord's extravagance... in creating so many lovely flowers to begin with.
Your idea of flowing dress and all touched me...I am all blue- jeaned up right now, but very early this morning I wandered down the garden paths in my nightie and it was lovely on a different order as only a garden quiet in the dawn can be.
