The Witch next door.
I think of myself as a fairly typical person. I am a stay at home mom (well mostly) to a wonderful child and wife to a very loving husband. I am a daughter and a granddaughter and a sister and a friend. I am deeply devoted to my family and friends I believe that people should strive to make the world a better place and to be kind to each other. I love to cook and to grow what I will cook. I am slightly fanatical when it comes to nutrition. not that I don’t love a doughnut but lets not kid ourselves if you aren’t feeling good it’s probably the food you are eating. I love to read learn. I love Football (American football. Go Pack Go!) I love to dance and sing off-key. I firmly believe that every day is a day worth celebrating and I am all about throwing celebrations. I love all holidays and work on extending them as long as possible. I am thankful for the way my life has turned out so far and feel very blessed.
As I said in my post “my Journey to and on this path” I have been a practicing witch for over 2 decades. I have explored a lot and learned a lot in that time. I am still learning everyday. I have taught students at times other times I have practiced as somewhat of a hermit. I am currently practicing with others, but I still consider us a coven of solitaires. I am currently teaching a student again and developing a business.
Also a note for those perfectionist. I have dyslexia and so occasionally you will find grammar and spelling errors. That is a tad about me but if you read the blog, you will know a lot more as I tend to talk about whatever is in my mind at the moment.
I will leave you with a favorite quote of mine
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, they’ll forget what you did, but they’ll never forget how you made them feel.”

Bright Blessings, Poppy

Hi, Poppy. You are a very loving person, indeed. I came across your blog after conducting a search for printable pages for my own BOS. I was wondering where you are from and a little more about your background (my mother is friends with a woman named “Poppy” and I was wondering if perhaps you could be her??) but not sure where you are located…we are in FL. By the way, your BOS is AWESOME! I am adding to mine in the same way (on my 3rd one, lol). Thank you for sharing a little piece of you and your thoughts!
Why thank you. I was born and raised and have always lived in California. I used to go to Florida when I was little though to visit my grandparents on Sanibel. It was magical. What else would you like to know about my backround? I should update this about me section but I never know what to say about me.
Hi Poppy! I nominated Book of Shadows and Blessings for a Liebster blog award. I know you technically have more followers than the “rules” call for, but I wanted to spread the blog-love nonetheless! Check out my blog for more details.
