Finished Hestia box! I like that the woodgrain looks like flames in some spots.

When is the last time you kept your covenant with your kitchen?

If you have a kitchen, you're bound to a covenant with it. The only way to be free of it, is to not have access to a kitchen.

The covenant? To cook.

NOT to cook expertly.

NOT to cook to impress.

But to cook something that makes you happy.

It could be chopped apples, but that kitchen will hold your cutting board and give you a place for the plate and the comfort that comes with that first piece of apple is all the kitchen wants in return.

Things are made to be used. Places are made to be inhabited.

A cozy evening of devotional painting for Hestia is exactly what I needed

Prayer to Hestia

Home-loving Hestia, fair maid who sits by the fire, first-born of fearful Kronos and deep-souled Rhea, goddess who is the beating heart of every home, tender of the altar flame, guardian of the gate, I pray to you this day, I ask your favor. All who pass this threshold pass into your realm, O goddess; may all who dwell within these walls be under your protection. Hestia, eldest of the deathless gods, I ask your blessing on my home and on my family. May we live our lives in joy and love, may our larder be full, may we be sheltered from storms, kept safe from all ill, may only those who wish us well make their way to our door. Be ever welcome in our home, O Hestia; be ever present in our hearts.
