My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

COOKERY means the knowledge of Medea, and of Circe, and of Calypso, and of
Helen, and of Rebekah, and of the Queen of Sheba. It means the knowledge of all
herbs, and fruits, and balms, and spices; and of all that is healing and sweet
in the fields and groves,and savoury in meats; it means carefulness, and
inventiveness, and watchfulness, and willingness, and readiness of appliance; it
means the economy of your great-grandmothers, and the science of modern chemists;
it means much tasting, and no wasting; it means English thoroughness, and French
art, and Arabian hospitality; and it means, in fine, that everybody has
something nice to eat - JOHN RUSKIN - Ten lectures to little housewives



I have re-invented my recipe & cooking blog:
