Vol.123 Dearest Ones

English-born Venetia organizes an open garden for the first time in a long time. As she works with a gardener friend on her garden in preparation, she shares with him some fruit from a fig tree that recovered from damage in a typhoon 2 years ago. On Day 1, she entertains her pals with a blend of lemon verbena and English tea. Day 2 is all excitement with children in the neighborhood looking for sweets hidden in her garden. She also spends some relaxing time with her son's family.
