I can transmogrify them to potatoes so it will be eye of potato if they works?

I was supposed to stir 666 times counterclockwise, but I messed up around 420, it should still come out ok if I restart?

Yes, it’s very important to keep your deosil and widdershins straight with this older magic. Deosil turns gets you Bartles and Jaymes instead of 4 Loko.

I tell ya, witches these days have no respect for the craft anymore. Recordings of thunderstorms? Back in my day we had to summon up a real thunderstorm and be ready for the dramatic lightning flashes at every moment, not knowing when it would happen. Nowadays it's all pre-recorded thunder and stage lighting flashes on demand. It's all so fake and manufactured. No authenticity to it at all.

I picked up a Witches World at the grossery store, waiting in line, and in between articles about this year's frightening trends, there was a small blurb about making layered "instant potion" jars as gifts. Like, you just layer in all the dry ingredients, affix a horrid spell on a recipe card listing the ingredients to finish the potion, tie a ribbon to it, and it's ready to go.

Do you think our dear Hagatha would like this as part of her hut warming basket??? Or are we just delivering this ready made? I think the basket is a cute idea AND she can fill it with souls to drag to hell. Fun AND practical. Everyone loves going to hell in a hand basket.

That's why it's not an acceptable substitute! You're supposed to be adding one thing, not all the things! And there's proportionally less of the needed thing, so you're not even adding the correct amount!

Easy fix: add more of the allspice. Need 4 grams of rosemary? That’s 50 grams of allspice. Problem solved.

Farm & Cauldron's shiplap entry way (complete with a Claes Oldenburg sculpture of a broom hanging from the ceiling) already distinguishes it from the other hex and haunt eateries in Bushwick, but I knew we were in for something special when our party was hastened to our very own ritual circle room, an intimate space hung with Taureg lamps and Moroccan rugs (all around the requisite communal iron cauldron, of course), an iconoclastic decor that head chef and manager Agatha Spitegaunt says is meant to capture the "East Meets West Meets Underworld" theme that she has been exploring in her thirty years in witchcraft (including most recently as a sous witch in the lamentably closed Manhattan staple Walpurgisnacht). The menu is eclectic: riffs on the potions that Spitegaunt grew up imbibing at her mother's table combined with innovative and sometimes even outré concoctions. The deconstructed "potion of blindness," for instance, eschews the familiar tongue of bat for a layered tripe and truffle dumpling that tastes more like Sichuan than Salem.

we have been over this so many times. nautical twilight is when the power of the fey spirits wax, and that requires a commitment to BE PRESENT. remember when the tree roots grabbed Catherine and pulled her into the woods? we can't have that happen again.

Catherine was an unworthy neophyte who got the end she earned. Too bad the tree roots didn't snake over and snatch that drat "Hex, Love, Laugh" decal off her living room wall while they were at it.
