Introducing a new episode format for season 6: Food for Thought! This one is a foray into Kitchen Witchery, just in time for Halloween. 

In the Food for Thought series we are talking about whatever we feel like getting into -- it might be a news story, history, trend or science -- always with some connection to food. It's not a deep dive, but just enough for you to sound interesting at your next family dinner. 

Kitchen witchery (see also kitchen divination) is the practice of fortune telling and spell casting using food, or performed during the act of cooking and baking. Reading tea leaves might be one of the most commonly known practices, but are you familiar with cromniancy, ovamancy, or tyromancy? Come along and learn a little about each of these in this Food for Thought episode. And don't miss the end, when Heather attempts to read Erin's fortune in brie cheese. You read that right. 

Kitchen witchery is also as simple as cooking with intention. Ever heard of adding love into your dishes? Cooking and baking with gratitude, focus and intention? You may already be practicing kitchen witchery!
