Vegan Lavender Shortbread Recipe featuring Glendarragh Farm Lavender

Hello Healthy Ones! This post will be a bit of a departure for me. Mostly pictorial and **Danger Danger** featuring a delicious but not-necessarily-healthy, Vegan (or Not) recipe! Recently I visited a Lavender Farm located very  near our Appleton, Maine cottage. I think you know I  love lavender and all of its adaptogen ic properties. This time around, all I could think about were culinary uses for Lavender. Hailing from the mint family, lavender is in good company for culinary purposes, think basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary... all from the way from traditional mint to bee balm. The list goes on and on for variety of uses in the kitchen too! The Barn is filled with fresh cut lavender, hanging to dry! Finally made it to Open Farm Days at Glendarragh!  My head, perhaps a bit clouded because of all the lavender wafting in the beautiful Summer's Day air, was stuck on making (and eating) Lavender Shortbread and because I also love chocolate, Lavender Truffles.  Neith
