Happy Christms!

Day 55 holiday magic prompt

Our family’s recipe for holiday magic

Is handwritten with pride

Passed down from each generation

Its motto inscribed

Beginning with cake

An old school recipe, such a familiar.

Can be cooked upon a stove.

But we witches prefer a cauldron.

No heavy beating required!

In each cake we sprinkle

Some holiday magic

Some festive cheer and delight

A spell or two to ward off disasters.

See, we are witches of delight, of midnight stars, of the moon.

We don’t believe in Santa Claus

Being Naughty, or nice

And yet we still get presents galore.

We have no need of Rudolf As we fly through the skies.

Instead give us cake, cackles, new hats and new brooms.

Simple pleasures of magic

What a spectacular sight

Take cover! Santa

Each New Year’s eve

You’ll hear our fireworks

And smell our stink bombs

As Rudolf hides over the moon!

Have a lovely Christmas 🎄 xxx

We are away for a few days in Cockermouth, enjoying the lake district. 1st photo taken in Carlisle, beautiful christmas tree spotted in Cockermouth. Rest Bassenthwaite Lake Nature Reserve near Keswick.

Merry Christmas!

Happy Christmas hope you have a lovely day. It’s lovely to have my daughters home for Christmas.

And I had good news this morning…

The creative process of Book 2 Golden Healer, The Curse of Time has begun! Just received the cover image and it looks ace! What a great Christmas present! Cover reveal to come in 2022! So exciting. Excuse the multiple exclamation marks, so excited. Happy Christmas everyone.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas hope you are having a lovely day with friends and family.

I’ve got a very full tummy so no gymnastics for me! No chance I’ll come down the chimney ever again…

All the best,

 

 

Happy Christmas!!! Exciting News

 

A very happy Christmas and a joyful New Year to all my dear friends.  I will be busy over the next few days, eating,  drinking and spending time with family and I expect you will be too. Enjoy!

I’ll be back with some scheduled posts after Christmas on the Sisters of the Fey blog about:

  • The magic of trees – the dawn redwood.
  • Crystal Magic: I also plan to share my prologue – The Curse of Time Book Two – The Golden Healer with you and a very unusual crystal I have discovered called Chiastolite.
  • Harry Potter Sorting Houses – Which house am I?

On my author blog I will be continuing with book reviews and the like and hopefully some poetry, short stories/flash fiction – time permitting.

EXCITING NEWS!!! I am making progress –  The Curse of Time – Book two – Golden Healer –  my YA fantasy series,  is now standing at around 70,000 words.

 

In case you missed it I shared a fun, jokey Christmas cake recipe over on Solveig’s blog for her 4th Advent calendar.

Merry Christmas to you all. Keep smiling, writing, creating. Each day is a new, exciting adventure.

Much love,

Happy Christmas Greetings from Kyrosmagica

This is a lovely Christmas wreath that my sister in law Lorraine Mallon made for me, and below is the table top arrangement that she made too. Isn’t it lovely? She’s branching out into creative endeavours, and this is a small sample of the sort of thing she hopes to do in terms of floral arrangement, and well as this she intends to make  jewellery, and paint too. So good luck to her, I wish her all the very best.

My daughter also had a go at some floral vase arrangement too:

I finished work at 6pm on Christmas Eve so I have been super busy, retail is such hard work! I’m now looking forward to two days off to rest my weary bones. My husband is cooking, (luckily he loves to cook!) so Lorraine and I are going to be sous chefs peeling the spuds.

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas with friends and family.

All the best for 2016.

Bye for now, this is what I’d like to be doing….. you can dream …. No snow here, and no hot tub, sigh….!!
