Witchy Autumn Spice Mix

Tis the season! I’ve decked the halls with pumpkins and cobwebs, and fall baking is in full swing. Here’s a deliciously fragrant witchy spice mix for all your fall treats, everything from gingerbread to roasted veggies to pumpkin spice lattes. It’s nothing revolutionary, it’s like chai masala with different levels...

Season of the Witch (Halloween Mixes)

Every other year or so I’ve been making a Halloween mix fit for the season. This year instead of making a new one I decided to freshen up my old ones – I rearranged some songs, now each mix has 13 tracks (obviously) and a new cover with gorgeous artwork...

Pumpkin Quesadillas

For the last several years, it’s been a tradition to make pumpkin quesadillas on Halloween – they’re easy, the kids love them, and they go great with Beetroot Chili (or any chili for that matter). Pumpkin Quesadillas 4 oz cheddar cheese, or a mix of cheddar and jack, grated 1/4...

Mash o’ Nine Sorts

This month I’ve made a couple of traditional recipes associated with Samhain (namely Irish Boxty and Barm Brack), so here’s an English one for the mix. It has nine ingredients – hence the name – and is also played as a fortunetelling game, with a ring (symbol of marital happiness)...

Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

Or more accurately for my purposes, Cream Cheese Frosting with some Pumpkin Cake. I hate to say this, but even I, professed pumpkin fanatic, am getting some pumpkin fatigue. I am however still interested in the tangy sugar bomb of cream cheese frosting, but as it’s unacceptable to just eat...

Roasted Grape and Sweet Potato Salad

After the Renaissance Festival (shamelessly love it, go every year), my friend Gloria invited us back to her house for pumpking carving, also our yearly tradition, and fed us a delicious dinner including a salad with roasted grapes. I was fascinated by these grapes, as I often am with food...

Acorn Squash and Burrata Toasts

When looking for Halloween appetizers that were not revolting, I came across these Italian recipes (although I was not prepared for the zombie I scrolled down to, that was a little revolting – made me jump!). I made my version of the pumpkin and mozzarella bruschetta using burrata instead (which...

Maple Aleppo Corn on the Cob

We grill corn a lot in the summer, usually Pakistani style (plain, charred, then rubbed with lime and red chili), but I was looking for another way to fix the last corn of the season. I had seen a bunch of recipes for maple chipotle corn on the cob –...

Sugared Grapes | Pan’s Labyrinth

Pan’s Labyrinth is another fantastic movie for this time of year – it’s dark and whimsical and beautiful and surprisingly violent. I saw it around the time it came out, and remembered liking it but not a lot of the details; I watched it again last weekend, and was not...

Midnight Margaritas

Eye of newt, toe of frog, wing of bat, tongue of dog, Adder’s fork and blind worm’s sting, Barbados lime is just the thing, Fragias salt, like a sailors stubble, Flip the switch, and let the cauldron bubble! One of the best witchy movies to watch this time of year,...

Vampire Slayer Pizza

Everyone knows vampires hate garlic, but there’s also this other little piece of mythology that I feel like I’ve heard a couple of times and keep forgetting, which is that if you scatter seeds in front of a vampire’s grave he will be compelled to count them before returning. The...

Pomegranate Brussel Sprouts

First, a word on the humble brussel sprout. People used to give them such a hard time. As a child, even though I had never even eaten one, I osmosed the attitude that they were gross and to be avoided. But even the first time I had them (defrosted and...
