Intros
Wassail! My name is Lisa, also known as Astryd. I started this group to help myself and other Heathens on this difficult journey. I started my pagan path as a Wiccan in 1993 and oathed myself to Asatru in December 1995. Wow...almost 17 years ago! Time does fly! I was very active in the 'community' for several years but for…

Yule menu
I will admit to having a huge turkey for Yule every year. However, we have turkey whenever it goes on sale during the year, so it's not like it's a special meal for my family.

Fruit
Wassail Ladies! So, fruit. Love it? Hate it? I'm in the "I like it but never manage to eat it" catagory. I buy it. I put it in sight on my table. It sits there and I throw it away. I cannot for the life of me figure out why this happens. I buy stuff I like, bananas, nectarines, mangos, etc., but for some reason, I just…

Healthy Homemade Butter Whip
'Morning! I made this last night and am glad I did. I know a lot of us are trying very hard to cut out chemicles, preservatives, and artificial colors in our diets. Eating organic and such. I came across this recipe many moons ago. I calculated the results. It makes approximately 48 1-tablespoon servings at 54 calories per…
