I see Freda has expensive tastes... She does realise that there's a recession so she might need to adjust her expectations accordingly.

Well something that you need to realize is that if you are actually planning to serve Freda, you are doing it looking for her help. This means, that YOU are the one that needs to adjust to her tastes and not her to your economy. When we are offering to deities, the Lwa in this case, we are serving them seeking their help not the other way around.

Thank you for sharing this. From what I have learned most of the spirits can be appeased with sweets, fresh fruit and alcohol. That is just what I have been taught though :)

When I was a kid, I had a verbal confrontation with a neighbor. I was always told since birth and by strangers that they always seen a light around me. My neighbor told me to wait until until there was no food in the house and start calling upon papa legba daily. When he finally came he asked what did I have to offer him, I had nothing.. He was verrrry upset to say the lease.. And he showed it!
One of the biggest mistakes of my life..

Alcohol is just a standard stuff. Sweets can calm Loa down and hot peppers speed their actions up. But in fact every one of them has his own taste - just like us.
