My kitchen Goddess is Brighid. I will write more about her here when I have the chance.

I am currently working on setting up my kitchen altar. I have two shelves above my bar that will be perfect. The bottom shelf will be the actual altar. The top shelf will hold other items. I also have two cupboards, one on either side of the shelves, where I can store candles and other items.

I currently have the following items:

* mini majickal broom decor.

* Goddess shaped candle

* candle holders

* chalice

* ritual bowl

* altar tile

* small cauldron

* small mortar and pestles

* mini ritual candles and holders

* some of my majickal use herbs

* kitchen witches

* crescent moon/sun/Goddess talisman

I am getting there, anyway. I still have a few things left to get.

I will be making curtains as the shelves are open on both sides.
