October 2021 Truely Unique News and Events

Posted on by

More news: Many have heard that we may be closing. We are NOT. The new owners of the property say we can stay here forever. Osvaldo and I will be in at least once a week after we get settled in.  Classes and reading will start late fall.

News from Sheena

*lands on her favorite quartz crystal, wrapping her wings around her body as she settles in *
So, I guess it’s about time that I actually do a formal introduction on myself, for those who have not been in the store within the past six months or so.
My name is Sheena, and I am the new resident Dragon Witch, that is helping in the store with Kay as she works on her health.  If you have bought any of the Flea Spray…or a Bacon Breakfast Tea in the store you have received one of my creations.  
No worries, I have been under Kay’s wing ever since the store has been opened, and will continue to be so 😊
I am comfortable in the Draconian Magick, Wicca, ‘Paganism’, Hoodoo/Voodoo, and several different types of divination (mainly Runes), and if I don’t know the answer, I have no issues in going deeper to find it…you never stop learning no matter the depth you ‘THINK’ you are!
‘Dragon’s Cauldron’ is my persona, and being currently known as Dragon within the store, I like to say….
“We don’t bite; unless asked….”
Welcome To Truely Unique…!!
(haven’t met the new ‘Dragon Witch’ yet….Come on out during the Pop-Up Vendor event going on starting the first Saturday of Oct and ending during the end of Dec!!!)

Pumpkin Juice

1 can or 1 ½ cup of pureed pumpkin (not the pumpkin filling)

1 can of evaporated milk with one can of water

2 cups of milk or half and half

3 tablespoons of pumpkin spice mix

1 cup of sugar

Mix pumpkin with milk and slowly blend in.  Add sugar and spice and blend in. Add all milks. Put in fridge to cool, and then serve.
