Description
Bloomsbury presents Gloaming: Folklore, recipes and crafts to spark glimmers of joy in the darker months, written and read by Rosie Steer.
"We often feel like winter is a time when the magic falls away. Rosie shows us that it's very much still there, we just need to know how to look for it. Month by month, she invites us to stop pushing through winter and instead lean into it." – Ramona Jones
Gloaming is a collection of cosy crafts, soul-nourishing recipes and slow living activities inspired by stories and traditions from Scottish folklore.
Turning to her Celtic ancestors who were known for celebrating micro-seasons, Rosie Steer has reframed her mindset when it comes to Wintertime, choosing to embrace, rather than fear it. Split into four parts, Hairst (harvest), Samhain (Hallowe'en), Howe o'the Year (the winter solstice) and Waretym (earliest spring), this book celebrates the glimmers of joys throughout the darker months through step-by-step projects such as Clay Pressed Botanical Imprints and an Upcycled Hot Water Bottle Cover; easy-to-make bakes, like Spiced Pumpkin Loaf Cake and Clementine and Almond Buns; and stories of Scottish Winter folklore.
It's something we could all benefit from: connecting with stories from the past, immersing ourselves in nature and carving out seasonal rituals which are key to finding glimmers of light to embrace the darkness in our toughest seasons.
