What is Imbolc?

Imbolc is a holiday that takes place on February 1st. I celebrates the beginning of spring and growth. It is a time of renewal, fresh beginnings, and hope towards the future. It is the perfect time to make life decisions, try new things, and attempt to move forward from anything that might be holding you back in your past. 

How Can I Celebrate?

Try out a new hobby

Plant something

Cook something

Really anything that involves you creating something

Volunteer at a nature clean-up event 

Clean your house physically

Cleanse your house magickally

Start a journal

Apply for jobs

Have that risky conversation that you’ve been wanting to have but dreading

Wear that outfit that makes you nervous that people will think it looks stupid. OWN IT

Re-decorate your altar

If you are planning on having a baby, this will be a good day to… uh.. start trying. 

Register for a class

Feel free to add on your own celebrations!

Salted Honey Pie 🍯

An old fashion pie recipe that’s super simple to make and a great Ostara/Spring Dessert! I’m making one for this Easter with my family.

Honey, Eggs, Cream are all Spring Foods. Honey symbolizes sweetness and the rewards of hardwork just like the little bees that work so hard to make it! 🐝

And Salt banishes negativity and is purifying!

This dessert is perfect for getting rid of the stress or worry of Winter and welcoming any sweet rewards from your hardwork in the future this Spring!

Ingredients:

One 9 inch Pie Crust (Store bought or one of your favorite crust recipes)

½ Cup of Melted Butter

¾ Cup of White Sugar

2 Tbs of Cornmeal

¼ tsp of Salt

¾ Cup of Honey

2 Eggs + 1 Egg Yolk

½ Cup of Cream

2 tsp White Vinegar

1 tsp of Vanilla Extract

Salt Flakes for Garnish

Preheat your oven to 350. In a large bowl, mix together your dry ingredients before slowly mixing in your wet ingredients one at a time…. (I never do this and just mix it all together randomly as I go, but it’s up to you.)

Feel free to add a sigil to the base of the pie crust. This is mine -

Pour mixture into your pie crust, it will be liquid and thin; that’s okay!

Cook for 45 to 60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and it starts to bubble.(I recommend 60 minutes on the middle rack. Mine didn’t burn at all!)

Take it out of the oven and let it cool for One hour or more to let it solidify. This step is very important to make sure it isn’t too liquidy. The consitancy should be like Pecan Pie Filling.

Garnish with Sea Salt or Himalayan Salt; any big salt flakes. But regular table salt will do just fine if the others aren’t available.

Done! 🍯🐝🍽😋

This can be used for Litha too!

Oh my fucking goodness!! Her little chonk butt!!!!

Too much of a chonk to be able to balance her back legs too 😂😂

I relate to this on a very deep level. My grandmother is a west virginian hillbilly and I'm originally from ohio. My exes from the west coast were so confused when I used the words pop and spicket, and lost their mind when I said 'Lord love a duck!' When my hair came out looking like drunk Leia buns.

Writing Southern Accents 101

I’ve been getting a lot of requests for Keith with a southern accent (which I LIVE for)! Since I live in the southern us and have a pretty strong accent, I thought I’d give a few tips to anyone who wants to write people with a southern accent, especially someone like Keith who may not always have one.

- generally I have a proper voice, and try to keep the slang out of my words, much like Keith would had he been written with some kind of accent

- my accent really comes out when I’m angry, tired, comfortable around the people I’m talking to, or just don’t care anymore

- most accents are generally similar, but different parts of the south tend to have deeper or more pronounced accents (i.e. I’m from Tennessee, and Tennessee and Texas have IDENTICAL slang words and accents. Usually people ask if I’m from one of the two states when I’m out of town.)

- the south in America is Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Kentucky, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and the very upper half of Florida that borders Georgia. Otherwise Louisiana and Florida aren’t included because they have very different versions of southern culture hat aren’t stereotypical.

- If you use slang, don’t over do it. Southern slang is actually kind of complicated and doesn’t really come naturally to anyone who doesn’t use it on a daily basis.

- not everyone with an accent uses slang. People from the south almost always have an accent to people who aren’t from here, even if they can’t hear it themselves.

- We tend to clip words that end in -ing (i.e. “Fightin’, Runnin’, Walkin’)

- Some common slang used is obviously the classic “y’all”, but also “yuns” (another form of you all. ex: what are yuns doin’ over there?)

- improper grammar is a classic too. I love English and can write and speak perfectly, but sometimes I find myself saying things like “that don’t even make no sense”

- Metaphors, Hyperboles, and personifications are massive parts of southern speaking

- “It’s hotter n’ the pits of hell in here”

- ain’t is used more often than y’all

- “that ain’t even correct” “well ain’t she just sweet”

- we still use modern slang and sometimes it sounds really weird throwing slang words like “finna” in with our accents lmao

- bless your heart isn’t a compliment and if someone from the south says that to you, they probably think you’re an idiot

- people with southern accents aren’t idiots and having an accent doesn’t make them one!

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask me!

I need this forever

My little monbebe heart :(( this is the best thing that has ever happened
