Greetings!

My name is Deb, my husband is Rick we follow a Pre-Christian Spiritual path, generally known as Pagan or Wiccan. We are Witches. Our Spiritual beliefs center around respect and protection of the Earth. We believe in a higher power, whatever you may call Her/Him. We believe in "harm none" and we understand that what you send out comes back to you in triplicate.

We own The Mystik Dove Shop in McGaheysville, Va. We sell New Age, and Spiritual items as well as Gifts, and Adult Novelties. We are situated in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley. We sit at the foot of Massanutten Mountain and Massanutten Resort, with fabulous views of the mountains all around us!

I was raised in South Jersey and moved to Virginia in 1998. The cost of living in NJ was getting out of hand and I was ready for a change of pace. This was the logical place to settle, since I'd been vacationing here for nearly 10 years already. I couldn't think of any where else I'd rather be!

Rick was raised in the Shenandoah Valley, but I'll have to get him to tell you his story sometime!

We have a black cat named Cody. Cody is what I call a "black cat with attitude". Very independent and definitely makes up his own mind! We also have one dog, a collie/german shepard mix named Charlie. Charlie is 12 yrs old, Cody is 5 yrs old. We also keep goldfish in our rain barrel (they make great fertilizer for my potted plants!)!

We are avid gardeners (mostly me). We appreciate fresh, home grown fruits and vegetables and do our best to keep those on hand before we buy food grown in other countries. We are not vegetarians, but maybe we could be considered part-time vegetarians... Meat is more of a necessity than a choice. I'm one of those people who can gain weight looking at bread, and I love bread! I need to eat more protein and the easiest way for me to do that is to eat meat. We don't eat a lot of beef though, mostly chicken and fish. We try to avoid "instant" foods, which is fun for me because I love to cook!

We are environmentalists and we live a "Green" lifestyle everyday. Not the Green-living fad, but a real Green lifestyle. We love the earth and want to do our part to keep it healthy. It needs to support us for a long time yet!
