The Blue Fire

michael17-.jpg
"May the Fire of Michael be above you,

May the Fire of Michael be below you,

May the Fire of Michael be beside you,

May the Fire of Michael be in front of you,

May the Fire of Michael be behind you,

May the Fire of Michael always be within you,

Amen."













Tomorrow is the feast day of Saint Michael Archangel.

Perhaps best known as the patron saint of police officers, Michael is also the patron of Italian witches, healers and psychic mediums.


It is customary to invoke the name of the Archangel Michael on behalf someone who has consulted you about feeling powerless due to illness, feelings of impending doom, or a suspicion of being 'psychically' attacked. It is also customary to give them a medal of the Archangel Michael after the person's aura has been cleared and they have been instructed on how to carry out their own protection ritual.


When you feel you require the intercession of Saint Michael, first perform the Purification ritual followed by the protection ritual.

Kate and Sidney

It's general knowledge to my readers that I am in love with Angelina. A smaller circle of friends know about my schoolgirl crush on Nigella, but I don't think I've ever told anyone about my reverence for Delia.

Like many others before me, Delia taught me How to Cook.

I look forward to trying my hand at one of our pub favourites:

Steak and Kidney Pudding with Steak and Kidney Gravy

I can hardly wait. Now to find a really good butcher....

Good friends and comfort food

We had friends over for dinner last night. I was so looking forward to it, and wouldn't you know it me and the girls got struck with a head cold. I felt alright during the whole dinner prep. Washed my hands raw for obvious reasons, but I am afraid we may have infected our guests anyway. Well, Boo may very well have!

Entertaining is always a pleasure when you stick to low-maintenance comfort foods you've prepared time and time again.

  • There's a lot of people out there who would be thrilled with your old baby things. Try contacting a local shelter for domestic violence victims, or a local homeless shelter. They often have women in desperate need of baby items. Your family and friends might not appreciate them, but a poor mother with nothing will think they are treasures!

    “A philosopher once wrote you need three things to have a good life. One, a meaningful relationship, two, a decent job of work, and three, to make a difference. And it was always that third one that stressed me, to make a difference. And I realise that I do. Every day, we all do. It’s how we interact, with our fellow man.â€
