    To float in the magic of the rose.”

      Let the flowers bloom. This will increase pollination, increase the bee population and overall improve biodiversity...
      Plucking flowers is not as harmless as it looks.
      Bees and butterflies are dependent on the nectar of flowers for their food. Without drinking the nectar of flowers these beneficial insects will die. Their species already is under severe threat of extinction around the world.
      By giving up the habit of plucking flowers, we will be leaving food for nature’s little workers-the honey bees.
      The beauty of the flowers is not just in appearance, but its contribution to keep the eco system in balance.🙏

    • @carolinew6095
      @carolinew6095 Місяць тому +5

      Hi from England!
      Clotted cream is extremely thick cream made by heating cows milk and allowing it to slowly cool. The cream rises to the top of the cooled milk. We can easily buy clotted cream in any supermarket here.
      There are debates here about whether you should put jam straight onto the scone and then the clotted cream or the other way round! The other debate is how to pronounce scone either to rhyme with cone or gone!
      Either way, an English cream is delicious, extremely bad for your waistline, but heavenly!
