Plans, plans and plans.

This weekend we are going to Pike Lake with my Mother and Sister to celebrate my sister's 19th birthday, which is tomorrow. We rented a cabin that has a full kitchen and such. I am excited to get away for a weekend, and just relax. There are hiking trails around the Lake and a beach, which is exciting since the new moon is this weekend. Going to do a small ritual while I am there. I am also hoping to get to work on my art journal a bit. I have the book I'm going to use and I bought a set of watercolors to play with. So I'm going to take them along and get started.

I am finally finished with my 10th kingdom swap pieces I think. I may make a couple of additional small pieces, but the largest piece is now complete. Onto the Jar of Whimsies swap. I am hoping we can hit some antique stores this weekend on the to and fro. I know what I am doing for the container, I just have to get working on it.

I am also thinking about taking a big leap soon. I am working on the details and need to do some research and calling and such but here soon my life could be taking a drastic turn. I will give more info soon.

Practical Magic and my very first Giveaway

"For more than two hundred years, the Owens women have been blamed for everything that has gone wrong in town." ~ Alice Hoffman, Practical Magic In preparation for this blog party I decided to reread the book Practical Magic  by Alice Hoffman. I remembered loving the book because the magic that they described was so much more natural than "supernatural". It always seemed so much more real to me. Everything was more subtle and I could relate to these beautiful, strong women.  Reading the book anew I fell in love all over again. The aunts eclectic nature, taking in their nieces even though they never married or had children. The black cats haunting their home. The late night visitors. The orphans who grow into two different, but very similar women. Sally's beautiful daughters who have their own problems with the Owens name. The men who fall into the women's lives. Jimmy the corpse.  The book is so beautiful that, even tho...

I decided once again this year to join Vanessa from A Fanciful Twist in a Halloween Party in blogland. This year though I decided to have an actual Halloween party and post the photos from that. So welcome to my party. Grab a butterbeer ( Killian's Irish red with a shot of butterscotch shnapps) and enjoy. Welcome to our home.  A barrage of bats on our stairway wall.  Your illustrious host.
