As if my ass...
As if my fucking ass isn’t already busy enough, I have to sell some shit ASAP in order to afford buying my shop* domain** because I’m chronically broke (and can’t bleed Italics any more than I already have).
* I can’t say what it is until AFTER I’ve bought the domain, so until that happens the name will have to remain a ~mysterious mystery~.
** I’m...

THIS MORNING:
Fresh Italian coffee, farmer’s market and used bookstores. (<- I’m seriously excited and seriously decked out and will LOLOLOLOL if anyone catches the conflicting imagery of my Virgin Mary/Blessed Mother pendant and my inverted pentagram thumb ring.)

TUMBLR, THE UNIVERSE JUST GAVE ME A SHOP NAME. (HOLY SHIT, OH MY GOD, IT’S ALL COMING TOGETHER AND IT’S HAPPENING SO GODDAMN QUICK IT CAN ONLY BE ~MAGIC~.)

Skull Cleaning →
EVELYN MILLS: “Skulls can be cleaned in many different ways. There are a couple of methods which are more accepted than others, but there is not one single method which I would consider to be the absolute best for cleaning skulls. Four methods seem to be the most common used and proven ones.”
Good news: two very decomposed roadkill deer (my first instantly followed by my second!),...

Hope for Rain →
Most days I hope for rain (to finally be given a chance to sit down and begin drafting entries about all of the super-wonderful-amazing shit that’s been going down here), but even when it does I’m still outside in the forest with my basket in hand.
wormwoodtea:
The progression from sitting in your bedroom, reading a spell out of a book written by Starshine Glitterwolfmoon, to standing in the woods chanting, stark naked, blood running down your raised arms, is just fucking baffling.

Awesomely Perfect Day →
Goddamn son of a bitch, I deserve this effing strawberry beer.
(What an awesomely perfect motherfucking day filled with wild mushroom harvesting (bolete and fly agaric), forest sex, dead crows, park swings, timber xylophones, walled garden walks (I WAS V. GOOD AND DIDN’T STEAL ANY VEGETABLES OR FRUITS), long lunches (homemade sausage gravy with french fries), mushroom processing, brown...

...and That's Riddle Enough
The prince said, “Who is she Molly? What kind of woman is it who believes — who knows, for I saw her face — that she can cure wounds with a touch, and who weeps without tears?” Molly went on about her work, still humming to herself. “Any woman can weep without tears,” she answered over her shoulder, “and most can heal with her hands. It depends on the wound. She is a...

So I’m making my first batch of jam, ever, and I promised myself that I wouldn’t deviate AT ALL from the fucking recipe, but then I didn’t have enough strawberries so I made their weight up with blackberries.
…and then I remembered how well scented geranium pairs with strawberries, so I infused the sugar-berry-lemon juice mixture with six fresh leaves. But that’s...

WatchWild Chickens, by Ms. Graveyard Dirt
Even when I’m driving by myself (when making my daily roadkill sweep) I’m never alone. Between 4-6 AM it’s typically just me - occasionally a blue moon early commuter - and the indigenous wildlife slowly retreating back into the safety of deeper woods as the day slowly shifts in the favor of humans.
The crows normally are just waking up...
