Make Mead Like a Viking {A Review}
Guess what? It turns out that I Make Mead Like a Viking. Specifically, an Appalachian Yeti Viking! I was lucky enough to cross paths with Jereme Zimmerman online a few months before his book was to be released. After doing a bit of chatting back and forth and then reading his articles on Earthineer, I had…
Things I Love: There’s too many to count…
A bee was out on a warm evening, and found her way into my beer. Poor thing! We gave her water and a drop of honey to help her sober up (hopefully) and find her way home. Look how hard she’s breathing (her flexing rear-end) – poor little bee. #bees #bees #ilovebees #drunk #pixiespocket A…
Merry HoHo, Happy Holly Daze, Death to 2016!
It was a tough year, and I think that most people that I talk to in person and online would agree with me. There were many celebrity deaths that left their fans reeling – iconic performers like my ain true love David Bowie, Prince, and many many more. It’s been a year of war, of…

So I did a thing…
I started a Patreon for Pixie’s Pocket. I’m terrified. I’m also elated! Those of you who subscribe to my email newsletter will get the announcement today. I’m flinging myself off of a cliff, like the Fool card in the Tarot. Ain’t nothing wrong with being a Fool, you know. (Want a tarot reading?) If you want…
The Winter Blahs and Ways of Self Care
I’m a once-a-week or so kind of blogger, but I’ve been slower than usual, lately. I’ve been tired, grumpy, prone to jumping to conclusions, and an overall emotional mess. Yup. I’ve got the winter blahs. This happens, and honestly, it isn’t *just* winter. It comes and goes throughout the year. I think that the post-Thanksgiving energy…
