I spent the better part of an hour yesterday talking Bu into the perfect Mother’s Day gift: a morning wandering around the East End Yard Sale. (The hipper side of town, i.e. the one I do not live in, has a huge yard sale the day before Mother’s Day every year. It is teh awesome.) [...]

muffin love and teh holy grail(s)
March 21, 2008 – 6:05 pm
I appointed myself Queen of the Honeycakes for ritual food tomorrow. Found some honey orange muffins and another honey muffin recipe, so the baking will be a hybrid of this + this. For non Wiccy peeps, Cakes & Wine is like communion sort of and also grounds you after energy raising. Being very Kitchen Witch myself, I [...]
happy oestara
March 20, 2008 – 10:22 am
This is the cutey patootey image adorning my computer screens right now. I love it.
Happy Vernal Equinox, or Oestara, or First Day of Spring. I’m celebrating by cleaning some house tonight, typing up an Order of Service for our ritual Saturday, finalizing ritual plans and getting supplies together, and hopefully talking the grandies into getting [...]
valentine’s day card 2008
February 14, 2008 – 3:57 pm
Bu’s Valentine’s Day card. I’m feeling really self-satisfied right now and am enamoured with my own cleverness.
Edit: I hope Bu isn’t freaked out I have never gone humorous with the Val Day card- I usually go the metaphysical Rumi-quoting route. I had a great one a few years ago with a human heart and [...]
obligatory new year’s post
January 1, 2008 – 11:39 pm
I don’t do resolutions… technically. Because there is too much negative energy in the ‘Verse expecting them to be broken. Buuut…
We had an impromptu ritual last night ending at midnight, wherein we burned little papers with descriptions of the bad stuff we were praying to banish.
weight
bad food
anxiety
poverty
night-time nummins, with scribbles on the paper by the baby
etc.
And [...]
an aftermath post
December 26, 2007 – 12:04 pm
Some highlights from Christmas:
I nearly die from the restraint when my cousin shows me his stash of Buffy comics but I don’t want to start reading because of the clingy chocolate covered toddler.
Bu delights me with his givingness when he puts our Amazon gift certificates together so I can go a little over my share [...]

oh the cheer
December 21, 2007 – 12:19 pm
Actually, beneath the snark, I’m happily looking forward to tomorrow. My solstice will be spent baking with my mother in law, who is a sweetpea, with toddler underfoot. And we have to shop. We’ve arrived at a modest budget for the 3 of us and a few selected others and I’m happy with this. Molly [...]
best artsy gift idea, evar!
December 1, 2007 – 1:19 pm
Laura and I were goofing off at work having a very productive meeting of the minds yesterday* and the subject of zines came up. I’m dying to make one and get into reading them. I’ve seen a couple in actual real life and perused a bunch online. She linked me to Sweet Candy Distro, and [...]
the photos

At long last, I give you the photos:
The groovy staff thingy was actually purloined from the music room, serendipitously. It was an excellent accessory.
So we watched Dawn of the Dead and drank some beer and came home by 10. Woo.
Edit: Not sure why comments aren’t working. Maybe is fixed?
