For those of you who have been following me for a little while, you might recognize the recipe for these cookies (minus a few new changes). What makes these special and different is rather the process for the final product. The base recipe is my recipe for Rosemary Ginger Sugar Cookies, but as an added bonus, I made these with pressed, dried florals! So altogether, there's a lot of earthy, floral flavors--making these cookies absolutely scrumptious! The florals I chose to add

This week for Medicinal Monday, I'm going to give a little review of a product from a local seller--Taiga Bees! I saw them recently as vendors at a show and picked up their Sore Muscles Salt Soak. I love a good, witchy bath so I couldn't pass up on this. The soak contains Hawaiian black lava salt, juniper berries, organic calendula, organic lavender, organic chamomile, and essential oils like eucalyptus. Photo from Taiga Bees' Etsy Page The description on Etsy says of the bla

Nowadays with the trendiness of bathbombs, baths have become a sort of self-care fad. But there's a lot to be said for act of a purifying, calming dip in the tub. I think it's an important part of taking care of your body, and if you're conscious of what you put into your bath, you'll also strengthen your magic. So let's talk herbal washes and spiritual water. You can find them at many witch shops online and in person. And the best part about them is that they've done all the

One of the best parts about working the Roboto Punk Rock Flea Market yesterday was meeting other, wonderful vendors! And right beside me for the whole day was Tonja Payne of Restorative Essences. When I saw her Healing Honey Bee Mask, I knew I needed to try it. The mask uses Black Seed Oil, Lavender, Jojoba Oil, and Honey--all fantastic, natural ways to combat acne and clear the skin. The Jojoba Oil also helps moisturize while the Brown Sugar exfoliates. All in all, it sounde

This week's Sage Advice Saturday is focusing on one of my favorite herbs and one of my favorite supplement companies. I found a Moon Juice sampler by chance a few years ago and haven't looked back. In fact, when I found out they had a cookbook, I leapt at the chance to buy it. While there's always understandable controversy when it comes to expensive herbal supplements, I think Moon Juice is worth the money. They describe themselves as, "...the resource for plant-sourced alch

Today's Kitchen Witch Wednesday is going to focus on lavender! It's one of my absolute favorite herbs to use in kitchen witchery. Not only is it a powerful herb, but it has such a wonderful scent and flavor. And nothing pairs better with lavender than lemon. Lavender is best known as a calming herb. It relaxes the mind and eases exhaustion. When carried, it protects you from the evil eye and allows you to see spirits. It's also often used in love spells, sleep spells, and pur

What is a charm? Well Witchipedia describes a charm as "any item worn by an individual for magickal effect, especially one that bears magic words, an incantation or a magical symbol. This could include an amulet or talisman or any piece of magical jewelry." Charms can be as simple or elaborate as you want. And they don't have to be obvious or incorporate herbs. It's all about the power of intention. You have to make the charm with intention. This charm is the one I carry most

Another way to start breathing easy if you're feeling under the weather is an herbal steam! The fresher the better! Here we have some rosemary, eucalyptus, and lavender. Other great additions/substitutions are thyme, citrus peels, or herbal oils if you're out of fresh herbs. And fun fact about rosemary--the scent of it is fantastic for improving your memory! So whether you're using rosemary scented lotion or adding it to an herbal steam, try to slip a little Rosmarinus offici
