I went to a pool party (I know it’s late to talk about pool parties) this summer, and despite the fact that it was held on a beautiful horse farm in the middle of horse country, and despite the fact that the pool and cabana where we ate were perfect, I was impressed more by something else.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

My friend had the coolest, neatest, most awesome salt I had ever seen.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

It is rock salt, and to use it, you rub the salt against the little grater while holding it over your food. \u00a0She bought it at Harrod’s in London. \u00a0I made a mental note and knew that I would probably be able to find it in the food section of Bon Marche department store in Paris.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And find it, I did.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As you could see from the box, it came from a salt mine in Persia, more commonly known today at Iran.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The two color choices were blue and a peachy\/apricot color. \u00a0The color doesn’t affect the taste.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Obviously, I went with the blue. \u00a0It will match our dishes and tablescapes better.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

I think it will liven up my next dinner party and make a great conversation piece.<\/h3>\n
