Bedridden witch: Kitchen edition

heatherwitch:

Kitchen witchin’ without the kitchen!

With help from: @magical-girl-ilex and @spooniewitches!

Set up:

  • A tray of some sort – something to create a solid surface over your bed.
  • Cookbooks and herb books tucked somewhere nearby. 
  • A crate of spices and herbs.
  • Shelves that can store ingredients that are within reach of the bed/above the bed.
  • Get a mini crock pot and set it up near your bed.
  • Hang bundles of herbs to dry from the walls and ceiling. 
  • Keep simple, easy to open snacks nearby – saltines have salt, right? Cleansing!
  • A pitcher/container of water.
  • Herbs planted along the bedroom windowsill.
  • A portable kettle that is safe to use within reaching distance of the bed.
  • Rags or towels for spills.
  • Room decorations that make you feel extra cozy!

Things to do:

  • Make infused honey.
  • Draw sigils on the bottom of your plate/tray/mug before consuming things.
  • Create tea blends and keep them in jars for the next time you want tea.
  • When you eat or drink, feel it’s energy working to heal you. 
  • Make a spell bottle – include your favorite spices!
  • Make a pinterest board of all the foods/recipes you want to try/make.
  • Make tinctures!
  • Plan menus for hypothetical meals – sabbats anyone?
  • Burn candles that remind you of cozy smells coming from the kitchen.
  • Create correspondences for the BRAT/Y diet.
  • Look up recipes!
  • Make cold infusions (basically tea, but with cold water and a longer waiting period).
  • Process herbs; grind them, separate the leaves from the stems, get them ready to dry. 
  • Infuse water with things like: Lemon for energy, strawberries for love, cucumber for patience, etc.
  • Connect with deities of home/hearth/baking/food/etc.
  • Etch sigils into food before you eat it.
  • Make herb packets and mixtures, that way you can just pop it in when you have enough energy to cook!
  • Two words: Tea Magic. 
  • Utilize color correspondences of candy if that’s all you can get down. (Yellow = energy, red = self love, green = vitality).
  • Place herbs in different places depending on their correspondences, so they can work a little magic.
