Practical Magic 2: Coming To A Theater Near YOU!

Good morning readers, it’s been a wild ride in April what with incredible movies coming out, Birdmoss boxes, gardening ideas, etc. As the earth turns the seasons change and we as people gotta keep in step and not stay still. However, it”s always nice to revisit a story long since made, kind of like visiting an old friend or family member, that is Practical Magic, let’s brew about it!

I remember watching Practical Magic and enjoying the story of a cursed family of witches, how their lives were constantly under persecution of what they were, witches, and of 2 sisters that broke it with their sisterly love. I really enjoyed how the magic for the most part was mundane, not the Merlin or Harry Potter explosive kind, but practical.

Now, the Owens, women are back and the trailer hints at a new threat bringing the Aunts and Sally Owens daughter in the mix. And OF COURSE, the HOUSE! I think whoever designed the house didn’t realize how many men would go through the pain and aggravation on trying to create that for their wife/girlfriend. I know I wanted a house like that, still do. From the trailer alone, it appears there’s a new man coming into the picture and trouble is a brewing for the Owens family.

Not much can be said as to WHAT it might be. However, the date is Set for September 11th of 2026. I can’t wait to put the lime in the coconut, for this one! But what are your thoughts? Have you seen the first Practical Magic? Have you read the book? I read it last year when my ears heard they were making a sequel. Let me know what you think!.

A Magical Touch: Birdmoss

Good afternoon readers! Can you believe we are almost wrapping up the month of March?! Spring officially kicked off as of yesterday breathing new life into things that hve been dormant. Not just plants but new beginnings for all, like a trip you may have wanted to take or a business idea you left on the shelf/ project. It’s time to dust things off and activate them. I’m beginning a new adventure into a subscription box called Birdmoss, let’s brew about it!

Now, I’ve done QUITE a few box subscriptions, Mindful Souls, AphroZodiac, Tamed Wild to name a few, but while scrolling and doing engagement on Facebook I came across Birdmoss and had to check them out. I never heard of them before and loved how rustic their merchandise was.

So, I took the leap as this month’s box is the March Falcon box. Also, since it was my first purchase they had a limited time Welcome kit as well and it jut arrived today!!! The Welcome kit, was definitely welcoming! Trinkets with a touch of whimsy, poems and a craft to put together, honeycomb wax and wick to make candles.

Now, if you’re intrigued by the kit the BOX, is too die for! More handcrafted whatnots such as a peregrine pin made of wood and painted by hand, a grotesque, and more! This box too, held 2 crafts to not only give you something to do, but force you out of your daily ho-hum to adventure out in the the world.

YES, is it nice to get unknown surprises in the mail? OF COURSE! But what really set it off for me was that there are things to put together, such as a air-dry clay to press an impression in, which means, taking your butt outside! I think that Birdmoss gives a soft nudge to redirect our minds to calm it whether because work or life gets in the way. Maybe even an artist block and need another project to channel your energy before going back to where you left off.

All and all I’m very happy with my purchase, and I love the poems and articulate inventory list in the Falcon Box, extremely detailed oriented even, the box itself before you even open it has flare. Have you tried BirdMoss, yet? If you haven’t please check them out. I have placed their link below, let me know what you think!

Ready Or Not, Here it Comes!

Good evening readers, I hope your day went well. I’m excited to see what April brings this year, and this evening I’m grabbing the lickies and chewies. I enjoyed the first movie and here’s hoping the sequel lives up to the standards set before it, let’s brew about it!

Back in February, when I went to see Scream 7 it had a bunch of movies rolling out for 2026, Scary Movie, Passenger, The Mummy, Undertone, AND Ready Or Not 2: Here I Come! It’s been a few years since the original was released and it ended with our protagonist not getting sacrificed by a bunch of Satanists and a nod of approval from the legendary Mr. Le Bail’s spirit. So imagine my surprise, that they were coming out with a new one!! AND Elijah Wood plays a role, which isn’t an uncommon thing for him as he tends to pick interesting roles.

The story starts where it left off, Grace, sitting outside the Le Domas mansion burning down, and off to the hospital she goes. What Grace doesn’t know, that because she survived until dawn it has triggered ANOTHER deadly game. Because the Le Domas held the high seat in the Council of Satanists, the game isn’t over until someone takes the high seat!

Unbeknownst to Grace, she has set off a cacophony of events, and has literally no idea, other than she just woke up handcuffed to a hospital bed and her long sister glaring at her. The many different cultists characters are not only diabolical but hilarious, slapstick humor, and creative ways the fight scenes are just out there.

Are you excited for Ready Or Not 2? Have you seen the original? What do you want or expect to see this go around? Let me know what you think.

Spring Time, Life Is Sprouting And, So Is Creativity!

.

Good morning readers!!! We’ve made it to April, time of rebirth in all things, plants are growing, animals and humans are being born, new ideas are forming and new paths are being imagined or created. All of over social media, different, places to explores, things to try and things to do have gone into overdrive, let’s brew about it!

I just so happened to be at the doctor office the other day, and I’m not one for being patient, so I began doom scrolling while I waited, BIG MISTAKE. I ended up saving and liking a lot of videos with D.I.Y videos, or food ideas. But a couple of them stuck out to me, and I got a backyard that’s like a blank canvas so much potential, just needs some paint to be executed so to speak.

I’ve drawn up so many different ideas, but the two that stuck out to me was the concept of growing things upwards. I like these ideas because it doesn’t take as much space away from the backyard and also, creates focal points to look at when relaxing in the patio or back yard its self. One idea was to create a raised garden bed with canopy using wire fencing or chicken wire for plants to grow up and around. I found this idea from The Purposeful You on Facebook, if you want to see more of their ideas.

Not only does, does the canopy create an easier way to collect what you grow but also, some refuge from the heat and sun during the day. A sort, of secret place to get away and watch the world around you. I blame Secret Garden from the 90s I’ve always wanted a secret place to hide and enjoy the beauty of the plants around me; it brings me peace and a place to ruminate and be creative.

Other idea, is very similar but the structure appears simple, a teepee structured with bamboo stakes. I say “appears,” because ONE I never tried to make a teepee and to it needs to be stable. But the whole idea is to create a way for a vine-like plant to grow up the stakes creating shade and a unique space. This one I found on DIY & Crafts on Facebook as well.

But what ideas have you seen that got you excited about trying? Or you currently in the middle of a project? Let me know what you think.
