Cultural Cross-Polination

I am much amused. A young woman (18), the daughter of a woman I mentored when she was in her teens, just e-mailed me. She has started up her own coven, and was looking into what foods would be appropriate for a harvest festival, as she would be hosting their Mabon Circle. (I keep telling people I'm not the Encyclopedia Galactica, and they keep ( Read more... )

You realize that Saturday is both Rosh HaShanah and Talk Lke A Pirate Day.

The mind boggles at the possibilities....

Oh, I'm so entirely amused by a kosher coven. :)

I keep telling people I'm not the Encyclopedia Galactica, and they keep not listening.

It might have something to do with the answers you give. ;^>

Yeah, my husband said something similar. "You made you the Encyclopedia Galactica. If you'd stop giving answers, they'd stop asking questions." :)

If not the Encyclopedia Galactica, at least Galactic Wickipedia....

It's a good thing I'd have to drive 6 hours to swat you for that one....

I have a funny idea. If I were the sort of person who is good at actually following up on funny ideas, I might actually do this, but since I'm not, hopefully it will do more to improve the world for me to just tell you about it than to just forget about it. So, imagine, the next time we meet, that I present you with a T shirt inscribed with the words "Don't Panic" in large, friendly letters.

Just so that it's clear that you are, in fact, not the Encyclopedia Galactica.

Aside from not keeping kosher, there isn't very much difference ;-)

Harvest vegetable stews are always good (and there always seems to be at least one vegetarian, or even vegan, in any random selection of pagans). And Thanksgiving, of course, was a belated harvest celebration, so most of the traditional Thanksgiving foods are appropriate - especially pumpkin pie for dessert ;-D
