My cousin Linda sent me this enchanting video as it reminded her of my friend Annie and our rose jam.

What a beautiful way, in my case, to end a day. I recall you and Annie, picking the rose buds, separating them. She talking about her life where she lived . Experiences during WWII, and something about bread. There were several stories you told about her, she and you established a warm friendship. Not surprising how warm your own Mother is, and you an American young woman embracing a new married life in what was your new homeland. The visuals in the gorgeous video enhance the story of Rose Tea made once a year. What a special tradition she shared with you. And thank you for sharing its elegance with your readers.
As always, you enrich my everyday life. And I thank you. -
Loved watching this. Thanks!

What a study in hard work, patience and living off the land.
Thanks for sharing this video, Corey. I loved your stories about Annie
and remember fondly the one about making rose tea with her.❤️🌹 -
Enchanting is exactly the right word for this video. I was mesmerized watching it. The beauty of their garden, the lengthy process of making the rose syrup, but most of all, I loved watching those beautiful hands of hers. Thank you for sharing this lovely example of simple pleasures – a little home, a pretty garden and productive projects. Loved every bit of it.

Oh yes! I have seen this video and many others made by this Azerbaijani family. They seem to be living in some enchanted countryside in a far better world than ours. This was the first video of theirs which I saw. Fantastique! I deeply wish I had some delicious rose syrup to put in my tea <3 <3 <3

My supreme thanks to you and Linda for sharing this, Corey. My mouth dropped quite a few times in it at how my soul must have known much of thins without my mind. It’s more Halfland than Halfland. Bless you.
