People call me Yaga or Babs. I’m a witch and osteomancer (bone reader). I make fiber arts, write fiction and poetry, embroider, hand sew, cook, bake, forage herbs and wild edibles, and make herbal medicines. And I like chickens and rabbits.🐇 🐓
Just a gentle and demure but very tasty sesame and lotus root miso soup with rice and bean sprouts

Consider this your happy time zone med check! Better do some extra self-care and rest too, for good measure.

Do you need to hydrate? Have you eaten recently? Are you in the exact same body position as you were a half-hour ago? (Please do a gentle stretch if you can.)

I'm so glad you exist! 💚

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Okay, actually feeling freaking amazing today.

Not been feeling very social lately with all the crazy. Not just the big wide world but in this little secluded corner too. So much to do, so little time. And sometimes not enough spoons to do any of it. 😔😑

In ancient Egypt, men would get time off of work to take care of their wives and daughters when they were menstruating.
I think about this often.
We already had this figured out once, so where did it go???

Trying my hand at multigrain since my system tends to like it better. They both came out good but I like the flax meal focused one better than the rye. More flavor and moisture to it. A lot less dry.

It is officially Fall/Autumn. Had the first puffball mushroom last night for a light meal. And of course couldn’t waste perfectly good egg and cracker crumbs.

For #WorldSuicidePreventionDay I want to give a gentle shout-out to anyone who also struggles with "passive suicide ideation". Even if you know you'll never try, it's still hard to deal with. It still hurts.

Remember, you matter and I'm glad you're still here. The struggle is worth it. 💚

Did I mention my dog is adorable and adorkable?

It’s been a minute since I’ve pulled out this lovey little lady and she still, even with her quirks and bumps and thumps, spins like a dream. And that’s saying something for an approximately 75 year old gal. She’s a somewhere between 50s and 70s Dutch Flax Wheel. Just tryin’ to finish this cloud.

Might I also add, we ourselves can be the Horrors which the horrors in our current world fear the most. All we have to do is act like it.

The Horrors persist, but so do you! Check in with yourself to see if you need to…

Eat! Any food is better than no food.

Hydrate! It doesn’t have to be water.

Take meds! Hell yeah, science.

Touch grass! Nature is cool.

Rest! We need fuel to fight.

Play or create! Joy & art are vital self-care.
