Between the Shadow and the Soul

Weird, witchy worker of words. Archive of stuff Ask me stuff My stuff Life and stuff I'm a word-nerd, so I originally started this Tumblr as a challenge to myself to see if I could successfully do something with a minimal amount of text. My Tumblr is best described as random. I don't really have a theme, I just post whatever strikes my fancy. Some reoccurring themes here are paganism, mythology, knitting, spinning, animals, travel, nature, and bits of fandom (Doctor Who, Supernatural, and Lord of the Rings). I don't post gore, though I do put up the occasional tasteful nude. Large Visitor Globe

The re-examination of a Latin manuscript, written in the Priory of Durham Cathedral around 1140, revealed several food recipes hidden among instructions for medical ointments and cures. The recipes predate the previous oldest examples by 150 years.

Woke up to a weird rustling noise at an ungodly hour of the morning. Found this. (It's now flying free outside thanks to minor tactical maneuvering and really quick hands.)

Walk tall, kick ass, learn to speak Arabic, love music and never forget that you come from a long line of truth-seekers, lovers & warriors.

I think I can do everything except that Arabic part....

I hate to judge a book by its title, but "Why You're Not Married...Yet" had these bullet points on the back that kinda raised my hackles.
