Get To Know Us: Go-to comfort food or cozy drink for rituals/work

Magick isn't about the tools like candles, crystals... they are part of it but not THE THING.. WE are the MAGICK! YOU are the power behind the magick! So if anything we do can be magickal... comfort foods and cozy drinks are definitely part of the magick!

Today as the title of this blog suggests, you're getting to know us via our go to comfy foods or cozy drinks! Mine is Cafe Con Leche! Yes, my Cuban side is showing but its part of me and who I am and if ya didn't know, now you do! I'm Latina, first generation American! My mom was from Chile and my dad was from Cuba! So this first comfort drink is definitely Latin, however.. many will know it in English as a "Latte". The ingredients for how I make my Cafe Con Leche are: Cuban Cafe (e.g. espresso), Milk, Sugar and I like to sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon on top.

This tends to be a go-to drink for me when I'm stressing or I'm in need of that feeling of home and hugs.... and I can drink this at any time of the day because I don't have that "Caffeine keeps me up at night" syndrome. Okay, lets get to the magickal properties of the ingredients and you have an A HA moment! Coffee: grounding and fast-acting, it can act as a catalyst to speed up spells and intentions.

Did you have the "OOOOH that's why!!"

Debraliz is sharing her Comfy Soup's Hearthfire Renewal that’s what I call the soup my mom made for me when I was at my lowest point, unknowingly battling a life-threatening, undiagnosed illness. I was too weak to move from the couch, unable to keep food or water down, and so deep in the darkness that I didn’t want to live anymore. Through tears, I told my mom how unfair it was for her to see me like this. She hushed me gently, handed me a bowl, and simply said, “Eat this soup.”

It was a balm for my aching soul—warmth, comfort, and love distilled into a single act. The next day, the doctors finally discovered what was wrong.
