Introduction

Greetings. I guess I will use this first post to introduce the theme of my blog and what I hope to give anyone who reads it.

I am a Pagan woman. I live in one of the most beautiful states. Its beauty inspires me, makes me feel alive. I really feel the presence of the God and Goddess when I look around me. I don't practice with a group, mainly because I haven't been able to meet people. So I guess I'm mostly solitary, which means I'm very lazy and rarely do any rituals outside of the kitchen, unless you count gardening. My garden consists of pots of herbs, so it's still kitchen witch-related.

That's right, I'm a kitchen witch. I prefer to work my magic in the kitchen. It's the heart and soul of the home. Food is sacred. It sustains life. Natural foods also have their own magical properties, as many of you already know. The kitchen witch is the person who can combine foods with similar properties in a way that is both appetizing and powerful. We take the food into our bodies, and so we also take the magical intent into our bodies.

The Lord and Lady provide such a bounty. My goal is to take what they have made and put it together in an appealing way, but I really can't take that much credit for the way the food tastes. They made it. I just put complimenting items together, but the tastes were already there.

Food nourishes us and comforts us. It's also harming us, because of the strange things that have been done to plants, as well as all of the fast food that we put into our bodies. I myself am just as guilty as the next person. I don't do a lot of cooking for myself, and as I live alone, that means I don't do very much cooking at all. Feeding people is one of my main pleasures in life, and I try to feed the people I care about things that are good for them.

I want to give you all some recipes for foods that can help you attain your goals. I also want to give you ideas for things to serve after rituals, and foods that you can offer your own patron gods and goddesses.

We'll see how it goes. I guess that's about it for now. I'll post a tried and true prosperity recipe shortly, along with the story of how it worked for me.
