As indicated in yesterday's post the longer nights bring on thoughts of malevolent spirits and how to keep them at bay. Cinnamon brooms, strips of cinnamon bark tied in a broom shape do double duty as an air freshener and paranormal protector. According to the "Farmer's Almanac" the thickness of the skins of onions, apples, corn husks and flowers blooming late are all signs of a rough winter.
Onion’s skin very thin,
Mild winter coming in;
Onion’s skin thick and tough,
Coming winter cold and rough.
