Merry Meet witches and friends! It’s Yule time!!!! I hope you are delighting in the season whether you’re with family or wrapped in a cozy blanket with Netflix. Today’s going to be formatted a little different being that it’s a holiday so there won’t be any herb of the week or Famous Witch in History. This Yule I want to focus on things to make your season cozy. Basically I'm going to shove a ton of hygge in a podcast with crafts, recipes, a tarot spread and a couple of stories. So Settle in, grab a drink, and let’s talk.
