Stretching Groceries

This was day 3 of the Oaxacan red mole and pinto beans. After having tacos again last night with my husband and mother-in-law there wasn’t enough pork left for all of us a third time (plus the same thing three days in a row IS kinda pushing it). So I chopped up what was left of the pork and fried it up with potatoes seasoned with garlic, cumin, and paprika.

I also made huevos tirados which I used to love to get at the Little Rock Farmers market when we’d venture out on a Saturday morning (eggs scrambled with beans) to use up some of the leftover beans. I froze the rest and will use them to stretch the groceries even more. I’ll probably make bean taquitos next. AND there was enough leftover tonight for my breakfast in the morning.

Introduction!

My name is Itztli, my pronouns are they/she and I have ADHD and ASD. I am a devotee of La Santisima Muerte and it was when I started working/following Her that I was led to this path I am on now: reconnecting to my family and our roots.

As I started to follow La Muerte, I also began to dabble in and pick up some practices. At first they were broad and open things that devotees no matter if they were Mexican could practice, but then the more stories of Her origins and roots pointed right at the peoples and places my grandpa was constantly talking about in my childhood.

So I’ve since taken a slight pause from witchcraft, focusing on my indigenous roots and reconnecting as I’ve never fully identified with being Mexican or Chicano. It was part of the puzzle, but I found what I was missing. I’m indigenous, I’m Nahua and Mixtec and that specification has just fit and clicked with me perfectly. The creation myths, the teotl and ideology clicked as well, in ways religions my family has tried to ingrain in me never did.

Since I’ve taken a step back from witchcraft, I only really practice tarot, pendulum work and protective magic or simple manifesting spells.

That’s about it for my (new/revised) introduction. The focus of this blog will be my journey of reconnecting and sharing what I can and what is appropriate to share.
