Snakes and Pentagram

HA!!!!! I knew it!


The snake gate


Viola under the bay leaves

Lavender and Toadflax

New mushrooms for the cage

This is a necklace I designed and had made long long ago. The stones are:

emerald (green)=earth
sapphire (blue)=water
ruby (red)=fire
citrine(yellow)=sun
diamond(white)=ice

It is set in 14k gold that I collected from my years working in dentistry!

Rhubarb Sauce

This is a very easy rhubarb sauce recipe and it is very good! Start with approx. 10-12 pieces of rhubarb.


Cut the rhubarb into 1 inch pieces

Place it in a heavy sauce pan with one cup of sugar and stir to blend

Place pan over medium heat. put a lid on the pan. Add nothing other than rhubarb and sugar.

Soon the rhubarb will give off liquid. Continue to cook and stir once or twice.

Cook until the rhubarb breaks down. Then continue to cook until it thickens a bit. It continues to thicken as it cools.

Remove from heat and transfer to jars.


Tighten lids and voila! Eat on toast or over cake or ice cream. Will last in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
