Blue Monday... and Lavender from Texas

I thought I'd share a little Blue from Texas today... well... okay... it's Lavender, but Lavender is a Blue... of sorts...
Have you ever met Debi the Lavender Chick from Hummingbird Farms? Hummingbird Farms is a real Texas Ranch/Farm where they raise Longhorn Cattle and ... you guessed it... Lavender...
They distill the Lavender and make wonderful Lavender scented products... my favorite being...

The Lavender Body Lotion...
For years I used Bath & Body Lavender Lotion... but then I was lucky enough, last May, to WIN a giveaway from Debi of Hummingbird Farms Lavender Lotion. I love it... and now... you can order online directly from Hummingbird Farms.. even if you don't live in Texas...
I wish my scratch and sniff button was working.. I'd love to share the divine fragrance of this Lavender... This is truly the best Lavender fragrance lotion I've ever used...


I like it so much, I got two of the bottled lotions... one for my nightstand and one for my office desk... and a tube of lotion for my purse...
When I find something truly special... I can't resist sharing it with you...

Happy Blue Monday... Drop by and see who else is participating at Smiling Sally's today, for Lavender Blue Monday...

Filled with the delightful fragrance of Lavender down here in French Lique...

Hi Dixie. The lavender sounds devine. Ooooh, the silver candlesticks and s&p shakers are so beautiful. I'm like you - I gotta polish my silver. The phone lady is too cute!! What a fun blog you have here. Rosie

Thanks, Dixie! I so much appreciate your kind words about our products. Also, honored to be featured on Blue Monday!

Glad that you're loving our lotion and that we can save you all those long trips to Bath & Body! I have to say that with this cold, cold air that has blown into Texas, I have really been going thru the No. 145 Body Lotion...

Thanks, again!!!
