You scored as Kitchenwitch

A witch who works her magick and rituals mostly in the kitchen, who studies food magick. She studies how to make a magickal home, magickal meals and a sacred kitchen, a witch who practices domestic magick. A kitchenwitch studies herbs and plants that you can eat (culinary), and grows them as well if she can. She is often a source of hearth, food and cooking folklore, customs and traditions. If she can she will likely have a veggie garden, some fruits trees, and a culinary herb garden. Her tools are more likely to be kitchen utensils, wooden spoons rather than wands, cooking pots rather than a cauldron. She will probably have a shrine or altar set up in the kitchen or dinning area. Her patron deities will likely be Goddesses and Gods of the hearth, food, agriculture, home, and harvest.

Voted "BEST CHEAP EATS IN RICHMOND" by Richmond Magazine!!!
"For a Taste of Magic, Lick a Witch" - KitchenWitch Catering...A Mardi Gras For Your Mouth!!!
I love cupcakes and I adore frosting, especially buttercream, YUM.
I have been known to just eat the top with the frosting on it. I'm a frostitute searching for a cupcake. It's an adiiction.
I believe in howling at the moon, dancing naked, splashing through the rain and putting hot sauce on all my food!!! Just kidding about putting hot sauce on everything, though I do have a deep appreciation for a really good, flavorful hot sauce.
I am a KitchenWitch. My catering business is KitchenWitch Catering. Friends and clients will tell you that I’m always conjuring something up in the kitchen; "Food so good it’ll put a spell on you". I'm told I make magic in the kitchen; I don’t cook in cauldrons unless it's a Low Country Boil but my special creations will leave you spellbound. After a slice of my Crawfish Pie and a heaping bowl of Gumbo Ya-Ya, clients have been known to do "The Mudbug Boogie"!!! Eeeeewie... them's good eats!
Coming from a long line of women who were wonderful and creative cooks it was inevitable that I would follow in the tradition. My Grandmother, fondly known as 'Tiny Thelma' was well known for her baking abilities and extraordinary pies. I share her love of pies, blueberry to chocolate, coconut to brown sugar, sweet potato to pecan...love them all and their flakey, gooey, sugary, yumminess.
