Commercially cultivated and dried rosemary leaves come from Spain, France, Morocco, and Tunisia. The leaves have essential oils which contain tannin and resin. The origin of this herb’s name is woven into folklore. It is said that the Virgin Mary had draped her cloak over this bush and placed a white flower on top of her cloak. In the morning the flower turned blue and thereafter the plant was called Rose of Mary.
Is the wall faux-decorative (I think that's what it's called) painted or textured plaster?? My sis-in-law the architect does the textured plaster on walls and it is amazing...I've attended a couple of classes at Home Depot on how to do the faux-decorative painting as I love the way it looks..but I'm too scared to try any of it in my home...so I have plain-jane cream walls :)
I DID do a texture ceiling in one of my friends kitchen for a remodel project, but it took alot of practice to get it looking right...I practiced in my garage so it has a very uh INTERESTING ceiling..

O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you and for those who do not, especially the enemies of the Church and those recommended to you.

Show us your face and we shall be saved. "Each soul is the object of My special love. That is why I am so grateful to those who are resourceful and bringing back sinners to Me. Keep this in mind then. I gave My life for them in the most atrocious torture, for these poor beloved ones. A humble repentance, and they are already on My heart. So speak gently to them. Speak with tenderness. A brusque remark could drive them farther away." - He and I
The scent of rosemary is most delightful.
