Getting ready for Imbolc

Next Wednesday will be Imbolc, the first of the three spring festivals. Imbolc is sacred to Breed and is celebrated by all that practice some form of paganism. Even if they don't call themselves a pagan. We look forward to the warm weather returning. Imbolc coming means that we're on the other side of winter, with spring just around the corner. Imbolc is also the second sabbath of the dark half of the year.

The Ewes are going to start producing milk, meaning that milk base items are the thing during this year. There's a whole history of Imbolc that you can google yourself but to me Imbolc is a time that I look forward to. My brain looks forward to the end of winter and the beginning of flowers and tall grass.
