The New General Store has a selection of jellies made from local ingredients on Long Island that are fresh, light, fragrant...featured in Martha Stewart Living in the May issue as one of their favorite finds! rugosa rose, lemon verbena, peach preserves, and strawberry rhubarb, they are "summer in a jar"! www.thenewgeneralstore.com

swan feathers

Matthew Mead shot details all over my house for his new SUMMER issue...one of my favorites is of a few swan feathers that I collected by the river and put on a white platter...http://www.holidaywithmatthewmead.com/
