Hearthside Thoughts #1

I know it seems like much that I am posting pertains to food, but hey, what can I say? I love to eat! It is almost as sacred an act as greeting the sun or murmuring a soft prayer of thanks to the gods for the blessings in one's life. Above all else, your body is your temple and the life energy you consume from other living things like plants and animals fuels it so that you can go about your daily life as well as perform random acts of kindness. It is also important to know what to eat as well, pigging out on soda and fast food isn't going to keep your temple in great working order. The better you eat the more in tune you will be to the sacred around you. I have learned this lesson the hard way, I'm not a super model who eats a Twinkie and then starves herself for a week. As I've said I love to eat. A few years ago I kept to eating right, walking went ever possible and I felt the an intimate connection to the spirits. Times got rough, changed jobs, moved to an area were walking wasn't really an option to get around and let's say my "temple needs a lot of renovation" so time to make a few necessary improvements. In the time being, I'll be working on a few more recipes for the next full moon. Also I have already started planning for my garden in the spring and I'm making a few plans to make my kitchen more green witch friendly. Until then...

Spirits Bless!
