I came across this tonight while looking for something quite unrelated, but wanted to share it, and suggest a few additions to it.

Kitchen Witch Purification Spell
by Yasmine Galenorn

No time to cast a circle and perform a long purification ritual? No problem! Into a large enamel saucepan, add: two minced large onions, five minced cloves of garlic, two tablespoons dried rosemary, two sliced lemons, and two tablespoons of crushed black peppercorns. Cover with three quarts of water and bring to a rolling boil. Let the steam permeate the house, carry the pan carefully through the house into each room so that the steam can filter into every nook and cranny. When this is finished, open the windows and let the wind blow through to take away the last remnants of day-to-day tension and stress.

After the potion has been carried about, return to the hearth/stove and add 1/4 to 1/2 pound chopped chicken (or other soup protein of choice), 1/3 tsp chopped fresh hyssop and salt to taste. Return to boil for about five minutes, then reduce heat to simmer for half an hour or longer until chicken has fully cooked. Serve into bowls and eat.
