2015 was the year that I decided I needed to make things matter, and to make things happen. I noticed that for several years, I have just live, not Lived! It was time to put things back to the way I want them. And, I did that. This year, my friend Ms. L was needing help with fellowships at her store. I stepped up and volunteered to teach my Kitchen Witchery class, and we have had some great food and fun times. I started with Mid-Summer/Litha, as it was the next spoke in the wheel of the year. Here are a few photos from those classes:
Also, in 2015, a couple of new felines come to live with us. Miss Sophie and her daughter, Onnie, are now irreplaceable members of our family. They are a great source of entertainment, as well a little bit of a frustration, as only cats can be. Here are a few photos of them:
We definitely celebrated the Sabbats, and had a great time doing so. I did decide to set up an altar at home, after not having one for many years. Here are a few highlights:
Mabon Circle in the park
My Samhain altar at home
The Samhain altar at the shop
My Yule altar, and my broom decorated for the season

We had a few adventures this year. Here are a few highlights of thoses:
Cleansing some stone under the full moon
A paddle boat trip during a family reunion
Paying respects on Memorial Day at Greenlawn Cemetery
A trip to a local historic park, we couldn't resist playing in the creek
A double feature at the last drive-in movies in town
A Dickens of a Christmas at The Ohio Village
As always, there was plenty of cooking and baking at home. Here's a few highlights from that:
Christmas morning, getting breakfast ready, and prep for dinner
Rune Cookies for Samhain night
I did take a chance in 2015, and started an Etsy shop. I have started making and selling Pagan Prayer Beads/Witches Ladders, along with pendulums, replacement pendulum chains, and some jewelry. Here's a peek:

So, there is the past year for me, in a nut shell, so to speak. lol. Until next time...... Blessed Be!
