I LOVE to read and research and have even tried to celebrate a few sabbats in my own way. But I feel like I'm the wrong kind of person to be interested in paganism, kitchen witchery, etc. if there really were such a thing. Let me explain-
For example:
First of all, lets just get this out in the open- I'm really bad at cooking. I'm not sure I could be a "kitchen witch" if I tried.
I am really really, um, girly, maybe is how we should put it.
-Not in the sense that I don't like the outdoors or that bugs scare me; I love the outdoors and I have no problems with bugs, just preferably not inside my house! I LOVE nature. But I like pink, and sparkly things, trendy clothing and purses. I dye my hair and I visit nail salons. These things don't seem to be the norm for a pagan/wiccan. But maybe I just haven't found anyone out there like me yet. (I don't mean to explain this in an offensive way, just can't figure out another way to explain it! -are you girly too?)
I am somewhat conservative in certain areas, but much more liberal in others. In the last election, I didn't vote because I didn't know which side to agree with! Obviously I'm not that conservative if I sit here and write a blog about wanting to be pagan! But then again I'm not really liberal either.
Does this make me the wrong type to want to learn and try and put into practice a pagan lifestyle? Like I said, you'll probably laugh when you read this! But I cant help that deep down I feel that this is who I want to be. I love the outdoors. If I don't have a window to see out where I'm sitting, I have to move- I need to be able to see outside! I absolutely love the changing of seasons/time of year. I love meditating, yoga and praying. And most of all, I love being open minded to anyones religion/gods/goddesses, even if its not my choice of relgion. And I think this makes me pretty darn SMART.
What do you think? Please be kind! :)

Paganism is all about being who you are. I think you're on a great start. Sure, you might not be a kitchen witch, but not all witches are! Trust me, I love to dye my hair and get my nails done, but I'm pretty sure that the Goddess doesn't mind.
Oh my!! You sound JUST like me!!!
And I bet the Goddess would indulge in a manicure every now and then too ;)
