Bewitched Onions



I am in general obsessed with the wondrousness of the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford so I might well end up posting a whole series of its greatest arterfacts (though sadly I am having difficulty finding a photo of the rather splendid Peruvian necklace of white beads and a taxidermy toucan). However to start here is one of my favourites and it's a gem - a bewitched onion! Voodoo west-country stylee... It's worth reading the full description on their great website http://england.prm.ox.ac.uk/englishness-tylors-onion.html - wizard landlords! Only in Somerset... Kind of makes me homesick...

Crazy people...
