Lavender ink

[julchen11]

Hi friends, 

just found this receipt, will give it a try this evening

LAVENDER INK.

Scented ink will give a delicate, intangible fragrance to your personal letters, a fragrance that will waft out as soon as the envelope is opened and that will linger mysteriously over the pages.

Ingredients

1/2 oz (15g) dried lavender flowers
6 tbsp water
1 small bottle ink

Directions

Crush the lavender and put into a saucepan with the water.
Bring them to the boil and simmer for about 30 minutes or
until you have 2 tablespoons brown, opaque liquid left.
Strain, pressing down well.
Mix the liquid with the ink. 


Wouldn't this ink be perfect for Frodo? :-)
Have a wonderful Monday, all of you
Julchen

That´s adorable!
It sounds like quite the hassle, but adorable... ;o) Think I´ll just leave it to Frodo.

Just imagine him writing letters with this fragrant ink in his beautiful handwriting. His letters would be collector's items.

You can smell the fragrance of lavender (very fordo-ish, don't you think?) in all of my rooms.
