    Lavender Rose Moon Mocktail

    July 1, 2025 /

    A Drink for the Full Moon Intended for ritual consumption and summer magic, the Lavender Rose Moon Mocktail was created for raising a glass to the full moon in July. This mocktail combines the floral notes of rose and lavender along with the citrusy brightness of lemon. The drink is finished with a sparkling mineral finish, making it ideal for either a private moment or a picnic under the stars. This mocktail is perfect for moon circles. It’s perfect for the Litha season. Every sip of the mocktail, whether it contains a botanical spirit or not, brings intention and beauty to every sip. I love to serve it during full…

    Lemon Lavender Rose Jelly – A Floral Twist on Classic Preserves

    August 14, 2015 /

    It feels like forever since I’ve done any canning. (Though in reality, I did make a garlic dipping sauce yesterday – remind me to blog that!). Honestly, it has been a while. I’ve been caught up in working outside the home, commuting an hour each way, which doesn’t leave much time in the kitchen. With our quarterly food swap coming up, I wanted something new to bring to the table. So, I pulled out my canning cookbooks and started browsing for inspiration.

Today’s Magic: July brings the height of summer. Fields and gardens hum with life, the days are long, and everything ripens under the generous sun. As the Wheel turns toward Lammas, take a moment to celebrate growth, gratitude, and the magic of the everyday.

Let today be a little ritual:
Step outside and feel the sun (or shade) on your skin. Notice what’s thriving: plants, projects, or friendships. Enjoy something made with summer’s bounty, or jot down three things you’re grateful for right now.
