Spring is Coming

It’s still so cold and grey but step outside and you will see so many beautiful signs of Spring, and I promise it’s just around the corner. It may still be time for warm blankets and candlelight but the sun is holding out a little longer each evening and descending in hues of pink and gold. The trees are budding, snowdrops are blooming and there’s so much to celebrate; Imbolc, Saint Bridget and a Celtic Triple Goddess! Join me as I explore the wonders of the Hazel tree, make a natural bird feeder, enjoy a hearty stew bubbling on the stove, tap into our intuition, dabble in tarot and finish with something satisfyingly sweet.  Instagram: @rootedbynaturepodcast Chocolate Orange & Hazelnut Biscuits (adapted from a Jamie Oliver recipe) Ingredients150g unsalted butter, at room temperature200g plain flour 50g golden caster sugarHandful of chopped hazelnutsZest from half an orange 50g chocolate  MethodPreheat oven to 180 degrees fan. Mix the butter, sugar, flour, nuts and zest together. Either pat into a baking tin to make shortbread fingers or pop in the fridge ready to roll and cut. Bake for 20 minutes or until pale and golden. If making finger shapes cut whilst warm and transfer to a cooling rack. Melt the chocolate and either dip, pipe or drizzle over the biscuits and then shamelessly eat them all in one go! RecommendationsThe Light Seer’s Tarot by Chris-Annehttps://lightseerstarot.com/Send us Fan Mail
