Trick or treat? Treats, treats, treats! Lemon curd muffins, apple crumbles, chocolate brownies, cake-pops, and sweet bread. No tricks, only delicious treats this Halloween.
And by the way I want to wish a happy and spooky birthday to my brother, my little monster, and shrieking creature Egon!
Enjoy the sweets and this spell
from Macbeth
of William Shakespeare
In a dark cave. In the middle a caldron boiling. Thunder. Three witches.
Thrice the brinded cat hath mew´d.
Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin´d.
Harpier cries: ´tis time! ´tis time!
Round about the caldron go;
In the poison´d entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Sweletr´d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i´ the charmed pot!
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron coil 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 owlet´s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
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
Ditch-deliver´d by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger´s chaudron,
For the ingredients of our caldron.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon´s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
