Combining tradition and science to create natural and effective remedies.
One of the things that I have been trying to do lately is make sure that we have a freezer full of tasty things that can be defrosted at need. When you are dealing with an assortment of chronic illnesses – you need quick options. For the meals where I Continue Reading →
“Into the Dark Woods” was inspired by one of those weird meme quiz name things. One of my mutuals on Twitter had posted one, commenting on how hers did not suit her in the slightest, and I took a look and cringed. Mine was something completely suiting to a witchy Continue Reading →
The idea for ‘Return to Dexterity’ was inspired by Mister Tea’s uncle having a particularly severe bout of something along the lines of carpal tunnel syndrome. It seemed like the sort of problem we should have a tea for, as there are many ways in which soft tissue can get Continue Reading →
