NASTURTIUM FAIRY NECTAR
Your little Fairy will love serving this enchanting drink at her next midsummer night's garden party. It is also a refreahing little treat for her after a long day of chasing drangonflies and butterflies by the pond. This recipe is from my daughter's favorite Flower Fairies book, Sweet Pea's Garden. This recipe does not include freezing time for the ice cubes.

STUFFED NASTURTIUM FLOWERS
Nasturtium flowers are more than just beautiful, they are delicious! They have a wonderful spicy, peppery flavor, a little like a radish, only sweeter and tangier. In the ingredients it says nasturtium petals, but whole flowers should be used(computer glitch).

Steps:
- Make sure flowers are clean and dry. Pick as close to serving time as possible, but definitely the same day. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Mix cream cheese thoroughly with herbs. Season to taste. Place 1 or 2 teaspoons of mixture (depending on size of flower) in center of flower. Pull petals upwards to cover the cheese as much as possible. Press lightly into cheese to stick. This makes 4 servings, 4 stuffed flowers per person.
