Pierre Herme's ISPAHAN is on my mind lately...
If you look in my Flickr Favorites that's about all you'll see...
I looked at Pierre Herme's site
and he's having AN ISPAHAN CONTEST! You could win these ISPAHAN goodies. Did you know that the 'Ispahan' rose, also known as 'Rose d'Isfahan' and 'Pompon des Princes' is one of the finest Damask roses. It's also one of the most beautiful and fragrant of all roses. And it's very hardy and tolerates poorer soils.

Yum! And I am talking about your illustration! XX
ReplyDeleteHere's a factoid for you: In the Persian language, there is no difference to the Persian listener between an "f" sound and a "p" sound. This is why you see the different spellings: Ispahan, Isfahan.

ReplyDeleteI always wondered since I visited isFahan not isPahan, Nancy.
Tanks!

I am here as a single commenter! I want one of those Ispahan' roses please. What does it taste like?
ReplyDeleteI love the rose color of the post!
ReplyDeleteI have never had a macaron!! Can you believe it?
Please don't lose faith in your psychic powers just because the contest ended in 07...not one among us had any inkling there HAD been a contest. Perhaps you could use your powers to tell me where I stored my needle-felting tools...about the same time as the contest.
