  • Tea with a kitchen witch

    Join me for a cosy chat over tea with Kitchen Witch, Rachel Patterson. Rachel has penned over 30 witchcraft books and runs an online kitchen witch school, among many other magical endeavours. We discuss deities, finding magic in the mundane and how to connect with the land under our feet and the energy in our homes. We delve into personal relationships, how unique our lives and beliefs can be, and how interwoven nature connection and spirituality truly are.

  • Summer's end

    Summer has flown by in a flurry of summer holiday activities and family birthdays. I've been holding on to the last summery days by basking in the sun, picking elderberries for syrup and reading a good book. Join me as I review The Anti-consumerist Druid by Katrina Townsend, which led me to discover I'm a closet shopping addict!

  • Snowdrop Season

    February is such a tease, one day it’s blue skies and sunshine, the next it’s raining and bitterly cold. But the signs are there, spring isn’t far away. I brave the cold on a quest for snowdrops and learn a little of their folklore. My kitchen is full of baking imperfections and herbal mishaps. Join me as I curl up and dream of wildflower meadows and get lost between the covers of a good book. Keep up the cosy, we’re not out of winter yet.

  • Rest. Nourish. Replenish.

    New year, new you? No. Rest, nourish, replenish. That's how I'm heading into the new year. Leave the resolutions for another season and let's rest our weary souls and nourish our bodies and minds instead. So make a cuppa, nestle down and let's have a chat about how topsy-turvy our world is, how to take the pressure off and find ways to feel better, align with the winter season and enjoy ourselves instead.
