SHADOWS COME TO LIFE

The Making of Book of Shadows, a collaboration between Amelia Bauer and Elizabeth Parks Kibbey
The word Pagan comes from the Latin word Paganus, meaning of or pertaining to the countryside, rural, rustic. The 17th century saw the innovation and popularization of the floral still life painting in Europe and its colonies. By the end of the same century, the Salem Witch trials were occurring in America. Witchcraft, a belief system that focused on the cycles of the natural world, included among its rituals the use of botanicals dried and kept in bottles or carried in pouches, bathed in or brewed as tea.

Connection

There is something so fantastic about a cup of blended fruits and vegetables.  Maybe its the colors, the cold, the texture, the act of using a straw. Maybe the wonder of packing various, solid objects full of nutrition into a blender and coming a way with a delicious glass of sweet delight that is unlike any that has ever come before it.
