| Wild Fiddlehead Fern pickle by Mahilaa Shweta |
I love supporting women-led initiaitves and businesses. Be it podcasts or pickles, blogs or breads, content or cakes - I love buying from women business owners, connecting with them, befriending them, helping them connect with each other and powering an ecosystem of feminine energy where women celebrate one another, and celebrate the magic that is womanhood. Being a woman is a celebration in itself.
A few years back, after giving birth to my daughter, I started my own venture singlehandedly and ran it as a one person company. However, the adventure didn't last long enough. No regrets either. We had a good run, that is what matters.
After connecting with them on Instagram and browsing through their catalogue of beautiful products and endearing quotes by Mahilaa's women, I knew I had to show my support. A few days back, I was happy to receive two cute jute bags with packets of blood red and rust orange seabuckthorn berries, that promise to keep you looking and feeling young, and a bottle of wild fiddlehead fern pickle. The cherry on the cake were the complimentary and thoughtfully gifted juniper leaves with medicinal properties. Gauri, the founder of Mahilaa advised me to burn the leaves in a bowl to ward off negativity and I did.
Their pungent aroma was perfect for the wintry chill of Ahmedabad's evenings. I was even tempted to add some bay leaves to create the perfect blend for a warm and aromatic smoky cleanse. But that is for next time. The juniper cleanse was truly therapeutic, and the pickle for a cause, simply delicious!
