I ate rose petals as a child from the bushes outside. I felt special and smart doing this because I had never seen anyone else eat them and they were so delicious. I would offer them to my friends and they'd usually try it and spit it out, saying it "tasted like a plant" and things like that. I tried other flowers and wore dandelion necklaces. I didn't know then that I was named after a flower. Later I was given a wonderful treat. A delicate pastry with layers of rose petal preserves or something like it. This was a job interview at a middle eastern restaurant. They told me that to work there I would have to understand and follow the "rules" of the place, I would not speak to the men unless spoken to and would not look them in the eyes. I did not accept the job. Recently I tried rose petal preserves. and rose-tulsi tea. how_do_you_like_your_roses ? |
