Trick or Treat

just thought I'd share one of my favorite recipies with you:

Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and bling-worms sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet'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
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good

William Shakespeare - Macbeth: IV.i 10-19; 35-38

and if that doen't do anything for you here's a bit of fun from webshots

Talent

Great Quote from one of the General Authorities of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints:

Topic: Be Creative

"You may think you don’t have talents, but that is a false assumption, for we all have talents and gifts, every one of us. The bounds of creativity extend far beyond the limits of a canvas or a sheet of paper and do not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Creation means bringing into existence something that did not exist before—colorful gardens, harmonious homes, family memories, flowing laughter.

"What you create doesn’t have to be perfect. So what if the eggs are greasy or the toast is burned? Don’t let fear of failure discourage you. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you—whether that voice comes from the outside or the inside.

"If you still feel incapable of creating, start small. Try to see how many smiles you can create, write a letter of appreciation, learn a new skill, identify a space and beautify it." - Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "Happiness, Your Heritage," General Relief Society Meeting, September 2008


********************
Loving can cost a lot but not loving
always costs more, and those who fear
to love often find that want of love
is an emptiness that robs the joy from
life. - Merle Shain
