The Kitchen Witch
Long before laptops and standing desks, she hung in the kitchen. A small figure — a witch, hand-crafted and full of intention — suspended above the hearth to protect the household. She was a kitchen witch: a guardian of the home, a keeper of warmth, a quiet force against bad luck and burned bread.
Her magic was domestic and deeply real. The herb bundle hung above the door. The candle lit at dusk. The good fortune stirred into the evening meal. She did not announce herself. She simply worked — steady, watchful, present.
