Do you collect autumn leaves and make them into potpourri?

Answer 1

Not exactly leaves, but dry flowers yes..
Once i was in the supermarket, and a lady saw a potpouri of them,in a plastic bag..They were selling them...so she asked me...how do they cook them?
it was really funny...i laughed so much...

Answer 2

I never have. But sometimes I buy potpourri at the health food store or the farmer's market. I used to have a lovely old Chinese jar I kept dried rose petals in, but I gave that to my surrogate daughter when I left California.

Answer 3

We don't experience autumn in the Philippines but we can buy potpourri in the department store.

Answer 4

only the former day, I replied a question on Y!A that asked if there became any huge difference between poetry and prose writing and that i pronounced that the discrimination became an arbitrary one whilst the writing became the artwork of a grasp craftsman, and that the right use of trope, linguistic rhythm, and precise diction became no longer unique to the two realm. you have created a pretty piece that - no count if it incredibly is seen prose, poem, or a brilliantly evocative mixing of the two - affirms my rivalry. thank you for putting forward what I already knew, and extra importantly, thank you for sharing your present.
