tfw you can‘t stop reading about tussie-mussies. 😂🙈💐

I may have gone a bit ham 🐷 at the library, requesting books to fuel my latest obsession.

Tamra What are tussie-mussies? 7y
monalyisha @Tamra A tussie-mussie is a small bouquet of flowers & herbs, in which all the components have a symbolic meaning. It comes from the Victorian era fascination with the language of flowers. 🌸 I‘m really more interested in the folklore & superstitions associated with different plants, but the phrase “tussie-mussie” was too good for me to ignore.

Tamra @monalyisha it is a very cute word - it‘s going to be stuck in my head all day! It is intriguing how “conversations” were had via herbs & flowers. 7y
