Gluten-Free Cooking in the Pre-Columbian Era
I started a new thing. On Tumblr, it’s just reposting what’s on my blog (which will eventually become a website when I have the money to do that). I have a Patreon (www.patreon.com/kwos), a FB page (www.facebook.com/kwosfood), and a YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAL8CoBXkscBaVFmzW-NxEw/ because I can’t do a custom URL until I have 100 subscribers...which I can’t get til I can post videos). I also have the blog/website, which is http://kwos.food.blog, so please support me? :D
Totally polyamorous.

I don’t celebrate all the Sabbats in the Wheel of the Year. In fact, I celebrate 4 of 8.
The 8 Sabbats (since I know there are some folks in this filter who don’t know) are as follows:
Imbolc (Feb 1)
Ostara (Vernal Equinox)
Beltane (April 30/May 1)
Midsummer (Summer Solstice)
Lammas (August 1)
Mabon (Autumnal Equinox)
Samhain (October 31/November 1)
Yule (Winter Solstice)
My 4 are Ostara, Beltane, Samhain, & Yule, though I do rituals-ish for Midsummer & Mabon, but more as a cleansing than anything.
But, I like decorations. The 8 Sabbats give me a way to transition through the seasons, so I look forward to that. And, despite not actually celebrating Imbolc, the book I have for Imbolc has three recipes that I am excited to make: a cottage cheese from yogurt, butter & buttermilk, and Soda bread.
I previewed the recipes and crafts in my Ostara book... and, babies, I celebrate Ostara as a sentimental Sabbat—it was two years ago when I drove to San Diego to participate in a Circle a dear friend hosted which started me on my Path. Let’s just say I am opening my home for both Ostara & Easter for the amazing food recipes I’m giddy to make! I will do a proper circle for Ostara, at my apartment; all are welcome (I will even Skype people in, if necessary). I go to an Easter Sunrise service every Easter (which is a good day to have an Easter sunrise service), so I’m up early and should be home by 8am. If you want a sermon, come over (or I can Skype you in), and I will have a short one (since I -am- an ordained minister, after all), then we can feast on more deliciousness (can’t Skype for food, though; must be present to eat)!
As we approach the New Year, I challenge everyone, in whatever faith you hold, to use 2020 as a Year of Empowerment. Develop your practice, whether it’s researching the Sabbats, seeking out your Deity(ies), developing a place of worship/altar, memorizing Scriptures, or even studying a new to you religion (I’m considering researching the Sikh faith). Embrace the Earth and radiate Love & Compassion.
Blessings be.

I want to thank my gods-awful 5th grade teacher, Betty Ann Allen, that there was absolutely nothing special about my birthday other than it’s gift giving season. It has made giving up things I’ve received for Christmas and my birthday much easier (but no less painful).
My parents gave me $250 for Christmas & my birthday. I just handed it to my husband to put into the bank so we can make bills. Because no amount of belief in myself will get me a job. That’s actually what I wanted for Christmas: A job in my degree field.
Fuck this time of year.
Random realization: I would be 100% fine with never having another penis inserted into my body.
Understand that even an “understanding heart” grows tired of being understanding and never understood.
I feel this every day of my life.
My first two pillar candles. Two different techniques and brands of wax. Both are soy wax; the one on the right was done in a double boiler (Northern Lights Candles wax and dye); the one on the left was done in a candle melter (Wicks). Same dyes were used in each.
So! About these candles, specifically! I play in the SCA in the Barony of Lyondemere, Kingdom Caid. My Barony’s colors are green and gold. The Merlion is our proper heraldry, but the populace badge is a seashell. At our anniversary event, I was given a Kingdom award called a Harp Argent for my Alchemy & Perfumery. These candles are scented with the blend I developed specifically for the Barony of Lyondemere, called Lyonsong. It’s a blend of Vanilla, Cypress, Clary Sage, and Bergamot. Smells a like a warm day in the SouthBay. :)
Not pictured: The seashell soaps made from goat’s milk glycerin, scented with Lyonsong. Also not pictured, the Royals soaps I made today.
Brain Dump
Since no one here actually reads stuff I post, I have some things to get off my chest.
First: I’m a redhead. Ariel is one of my least favorite Disney characters. I’m happy that little girls of color have another strong female to look up to with the upcoming live-action movie.
But, I am not impressed with the casting choice.
Not because I’m white and it somehow invalidates my childhood. Let’s put it into perspective (I did this on Facebook and was accused of being racist or having blind spots in my thinking).
Imagine: You are a female child who is different from everyone else. You are vilified for that difference and treated poorly because of that difference. There are a few dolls available that look like you, and you own them. Whenever the mean kids come, you cuddle your look-a-like dolls to you and cry. Then, a movie comes out that depicts a female lead who looks like you and she’s everything you want to be. Sure, you don’t really identify with her, but she’s all the positive things you desire. The other kids fall in love with her and suddenly decide you look like her and act like her enough that they can’t tease you anymore. So they stop.
You develop a sense of empathy for others, understanding a small fraction of their struggles and you are overjoyed when other little girls who look like you get to have the same treatment.
Years pass.
Folks are back to vilifying you. You watch as your subset has iconic characters redone with a new subset. You, personally, have coping mechanisms to deal with The Haters. You no longer cry into your dolls. You speak up and speak out. But, you still wonder at the shift in representation... Does anyone else notice?
Now. Put all that into the package of being white. Suddenly, you’re a racist! How dare you say that people of your white subset need representation! You’re too old for that! Plus, you still have the original character!
So... here’s this: When is it okay to marginalize someone? Because my fear isn’t that little black girls now have a mermaid to look to. It’s that those little girls in 30 years will be using their technology to post statements expressing surprise and frustration at the commoditization of subsets and being told to “Simmer down; you’re being racist” or “You still have your version” or whatever. Â
Exploitation is not a step in the right direction.
If you want a “Step in the right direction,” how about writing a script for a myth from the Ashanti tribe of Africa? Why not create a story based in the voodoo culture of Haiti? There are so many stories begging to be told from cultures that are not white and do not include white mythologies. In 30 years, Disney may do a live action movie of Princess and the Frog and cast a Native American in the role of Tiana. The race isn’t integral to the story.
Speak of Native Americans, when can we see them portrayed in a positive light in media? Can we get Marvel to include American Avenger, American Eagle, Black Crow, Crusader-X, etc?
...and can we talk about the lack of positive Jewish representation in media? I mean, Fox had the perfect Jewish superhero in The Thing from Fantastic 4...and yet, BOTH TIMES, they cut that particularly integral part of the character from their scripts...and there was no outcry from anyone. When questioned, a Jewish friend of mine said, “It’s because we’re used to it.”
I don’t want anyone to be used to that. To not having representation; to having representation stripped away; to having negatively stereotyped representation.Â
I saw an ad for State Farm before a movie the other day. It’s socially acceptable racism, I think (here’s a link: https://youtu.be/XQjOQS-1V2g). Sure, it’s funny and memorable as State Farm commercials are. However, why is every single person Asian? Is it because they’re gamers? Because they’re anime fighters? Because they’re bad drivers? I don’t know. Take your pick of the stereotypes. I found it odd and surprising, but, hey! Representation, right!?!
Exploitation =\= representation.
Anyway. This has been my rant of the day now that I finally got back to Tumblr. It’s, like, the only place I can safely state things like this without people jumping down my throat to tell me I’m racist when... I’m not. I’m pointing out a societal problem that will continue to get worse because it’s “acceptable.”
...not to me...
...there was going to be a “Second...” to this post, but damned if I can remember what I wanted to talk about. Probably something witchy.

I had three really old posts flagged as adult content.
Apparently, Tumblr thinks my sunburned back and neck are too sexy for display, and the 1” gash in the webbing of my fingers from my cat is just too gory.
In other news, I got out of my own car and walked tonight because my boyfriend has an Obsessive-compulsive need to be right and would not stop arguing with the other passenger. I was getting annoyed and my head was starting to hurt, so I vacated. I’m just a wee bit pissed that it even was a thing. It was over loaded fries at Jack in the Box.... >_<

I did some things... I stepped out and submitted to see if I could display art at a Tiki event this coming Sunday. I decided to start drawing Tikis, since I never have, and get some stuff together, just in case they say yes. These are all Dr. Who villains... and I am very excited and proud of them.
1. “Silence Will Fall” watercolors and inks. (The Silence)
2. “Blink” graphite, charcoal, & Inks. (Weeping Angel)
3. “We Are Tiki.2” Inks (Cyberman)
6. “I’m So, So Sorry” Markers & Inks (Vashta Nerada)
Numbers 4 & 5 will be acrylics (Exterminate!) and oils (Are You My Tiki?) and will, hopefully, be done tomorrow.
I just want to be loved the way I love other people.
When I say, “that isn’t relevant to the story,” I expect you to drop it and maybe discuss it at another time. Instead, you make me feel like shit and act like a petulant child because I don’t bend to your will.
I love you... but I will let you go if you treat me like shit for no apparent reason and DON’T apologize for it. Sure, I should not have raised my voice... but you didn’t seem to be getting the whole “not important at this time” message and kept mansplaining shit to me that I honestly no longer care about.
Oh, and your dig about my lived experiences being wrong by your proof? NOT FUCKING HELPFUL.
