Movie Day

Sometimes, the real world is scarier then anything in the movies

Day of the Pumpkin

It IS caturday but it’s also October Eve, so I thought that today we’d celebrate the Pumpkin in word, pictures and song:

Round About The Cauldron

 

#100DAYSOFHALLOWEEN HAPPY-Potion

No doubt about it- this is the most famous potion ever brewed by a witch or witches

First Witch
Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot.

All
Double, double, toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Second Witch
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg and howlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

All
Double, double, toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Third Witch
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches’ mummy, maw and gulf
Of the ravin’d salt-sea shark,
Root of hemlock digg’d i’ the dark,
Liver of blaspheming Jew,
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Silver’d in the moon’s eclipse,
Nose of Turk and Tartar’s lips,
Finger of birth-strangled babe (30)
Ditch-deliver’d by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.

All
Double, double, toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Second Witch
Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes-

Open locks, whoever knocks

Happy Dance Time!

WP Daily Prompters are curious. They want to know what was  the last thing  I got excited about:

A little bit ago I was noodling around on youtube and found these clips of haunted places here in Washington state and I was super super happy after watching them because I have been to all of these places AND here I was thinking I had nothing to write about for Halloween.

How silly was that?

I’m excited because I realized that I DO have things to write about and now I am inspired.
