A Perfect Witch's Dozen
Blue & Purple Flowers In The Garden
Lucky Thirteen
Once I started thinking about witches, witchy, and Wicca etc., I found I couldn't stop. Power of the witch indeed. That's the kind of thing that grows of its own volition. And soon, there were 13 pages, a proper witch's dozen.
A perfect witch's dozen is 13, the same as a baker's dozen. It is very simple, after all, 13 is just a number. To many it is a sign of bad luck. To me, it is a sign of generosity, giving, and protection.
Power Of The Witch
It's all about the symbolism. Symbolism takes many forms. Brooms and witch's hats are two of the more common and visible symbols.
Historically, though, it's not been safe for witches to be overly visible. Jealousy or fear always got someone talking. And let's face it, smart women have always pissed people off.

The origin of the baker's dozen takes us back to New Amsterdam and to the story of a baker who learns a lesson from a witch and Saint Nicholas.
Kitchen Witches
Cayenne Chocolate Snickerdoodles
These are a great favorite with witches - Cayenne Chocolate Snickerdoodles. I know I love them.
It has to do with that whole opposites attract thing. You've got your luscious chocolate snickerdoodle combined with a quick bite of cayenne pepper. Truly a brilliant combination.
