I Found This Guy By Chance And I’m Very Interested Into Baking Again

One Summer’s Day (Array Mbira) by xuan xuan

Decided to make a caramel custard pudding for my stepfather’s birthday. Hope it turns out okay.

Edit: I’m finally done and I think I did pretty good for my first time making it.

Back from the dead a.k.a. college

After what felt like an eternity I´m finally done with college and ready to go back at what I love so much. This sigil represents that will and determination to start new and don´t let go of my dreams. 

I also have an instagram now (finally), you can find me here,  or narianoir89  I´ll be posting regularly there and here, so I´m excited!

I think my mom went a little overboard...still not festive as enough and we’re still not done

🌞 spend some time outside, take some deep breaths of fresh air, enjoy the birds chirping, flowers, dew, fog, and the beautiful colors in the sky that sunrise brings

🌻charge some lemon juice in the sunrise for extra boost of cleansing, positivity, and happiness properties (to make it stronger you can infuse it with mint or grapefruit, which both have similar properties and correspond with sunrise)

Dealing with a Toxic Parent

So, I rarely talk about myself because of embarrassment but here it goes...I'm 25, soon to be 26 this week and my mother constantly tells me that she'll have me committed to a mental health institution because I don't have a job and her criticism is making my depression, self worth and self esteem worse. I help out in the house as much as I can but it feels like it's not good enough for her. Before getting sick with an autoimmune disease called acne inversa, I tried going to the military but she told me that I couldn't go because I didn't pass the practice test... thinking about it now, she has halted everything that I wanted to do in life and talking to her about it is impossible because it becomes all about her and how I'm not ambitious enough for anything. I'm just tired of pleasing and trying for her to accept me fully.

A few weeks ago, my mother and I went to a flea market and noticed a man selling different herbal products. He was asking what type of products that I normally use and what type of ailments I have. I told him that I has acne inversa and serious hyperpigmentation. The conversation end up leading to talking about honoring your ancestors, that my ailments is my blood, telling me that I should acknowledge them and to heal whatever that’s within me so that I can get better both physically and spiritually. So, I bought nothing but neem products and giving myself one month to heal myself.
