change of tac

I'm going to use this blog for all manner of things as i have so much going on in my head at any one time. So this is my outlet. I've recently become fascinated by Tarot cards and have bought my first ever set. They are beautiful and are called Tarot of the Sweet Twilight. As i'm totally new to Tarot and how to read them I'm going to do a card a day to help me to learn the cards and their meanings. The little white booklet that can with the cards doesn't really give me a lot of information so I'll collect info from the internet to help me with my interpretations. All part of my journey.

So today's card is:
10 of Wards

booklet description: dont try to control or manipulate those around you - just worry about you.

Suit of wands -Fire element. Energizing cards.

then looking at different websites this card is know as the The Lord of Oppression.
This is pretty key that I have drawn this today as I feel my energy is blocked.

useful references:

Affirmation: I release all repression so my Will flows freely.
 

Another site says too many projects! How very true!

ooh and there's the post - My Tarot bible has arrived! excellent. And the reciept is inside - in the suit of wands section ;-)

Mo's Muffins

OK it has been ages since I added anything to my blog so thought it was about time I started again. I bought a silicone muffin mould last week and its BRILLIANT! so far I've made some blue cheese and walnut muffins which were tasty but i over did it on the salt a bit. So today I've made some goats cheese, red pepper and chili...:-)

ah and the recipe is by Huge Fearnly_Whittingstall (am a huge fan!) which I've adapted with my own flavours.

Here's some picks of the first batch I made:
