Eilidh wrote The Kitchen Witch while on maternity leave. She was inspired while trying to think of ways to make weaning and the kitchen fun for her daughter so she could hopefully learn to love food and cooking. Eilidh's mum had a kitchen witch in Eilidh's childhood home in Scotland, and Eilidh thought she was the perfect character to make the kitchen fun. Bramble, Eilidh's border terrier, is a big fan of spillage in the kitchen, although he is less confident around the chaos of the kitchen now that there is a little girl in the home.
