Grocery pickup at Walmart went very well, aside from their useless phone app. They made one substitution, but … Continue reading…
It was for me only, not for all y’all.

I have set up a grocery pick up with Walmart, which I usually call The Evil Empire. I still worry a lot about their employees, but it’s certainly better for them that folks do pick up than shop.
Apparently I’m not working hard enough for The Morrigan. A bit ago, I was … Continue reading…
Sources for Working with Fairies
Since I am asked pretty regularly for opinions on specific books relating to Fairies or more generally recommendations on the wider subject I thought I’d do a full blog on it.
My main resources are folklore, mythology, folk practice, and academic articles and books. I encourage everyone to start there. There’s a large number of books I could recommend here but for a half dozen suggestions:

Is this Monday?
Blessings Darlings!
Having a bit less ‘active’ a day today than yesterday. Laundry on line. Bill paying. Trying to do an online order of groceries, for either delivery or pickup, but all time slots filled. Trying that every few hours to see when they add more time slots. [Later] oh – it looks like they only … Continue reading…
From Garden to Oven.

I’m bopping in and out of the house every 15 minutes for the next two hours, putting more soaked hickory chips on top of the charcoal in the smoker. Today is “Smoke a pork shoulder roast” at Chez Fern. It will be … Continue reading…

Blessings, Darlings!
Now the turnips are sprouting!
Dear Gods, my back went crazy after the garden work yesterday. Along with putting cardboard down, I’d forked up and removed some grass from the already-established garden. … Continue reading…
A Garden Day
Blessings, Darlings!
Gardening time. Even tho’ my knee is still extremely fucked up with tendonitis (It will need another 4 to 11 weeks before I expect it to be ‘mostly better’) I worked in the garden today. Not being an idiot, I focused on … Continue reading…
Grey and Chilly Tuesday 3/31
Blessings Darlings!
Laundry started. I’m not very started, tho’, feeling very sluggish. Laundry got hung on line, but it has been so grey and cool that I had to finish it in the dryer. Did dishes. Dinner is just spaghetti and sauce – neither of which … Continue reading…
