Offering you a cup of comfort



Conjuring by the Cup

Growing and drying herbs for your own kitchen witchery brews is one of life’s simple pleasures. Tea conjures a very powerful alchemy because when you drink it, you take the magic inside. For an ambrosial brew with the power to calm any storm, add a sliver to ginger root and a teaspoon each of chamomile and peppermint to a two cups pot of boiling water. Let steep and as the mixture brews and cools, pray:

This day I pray for strength and health,
And the wisdom to see the beauty in each waking moment.
Blessings abound, good health is true wealth.
