"Practical Magic"

I am going to DEDICATE this post to "My Brother Joey"... His birthday is "Halloween"(How fun that was when we were growing up), he is STILL so very weak and fighting pneumonia. We are waiting for him to get stronger so they can fix his "very special sweet heart"... I decided to post this Practical Magic for him... All his life he's been intrigued with magic and has always been there entertaining us all... "He always had that Magic look in his eye"... So this one is for you Joey... We are all deep in prayers to bring you through, and I long to see the "twinkle in his eyes while he's preforming his favorite magic tricks once again"... and once again I want to Thank ALL my special friends here that are such wonderful support to me... Love&Hugs to you all!

"Practical Magic" ...the finished house...

This is MY personal "Book of Spells"... As fall approaches it's time to elevate a "Season of Magic"...

"We can't have magic without the help of Mr. Toad"... and a FINE specimen he is!!! "I can assure you that as I talked him into the experiments he was only my consultant and DID NOT suffer any bodily harm"...

"Charlotte was also a Practical Help at knowing each and every trick of Spinning some Magnificent Webs", and not one was deceitful...

Mr Wizard is deep in thought and study as he tries to figure out "How to regain his Height"... It's been years since he shrunk himself to the size of a salt shaker, BUT in those days he would blink himself back at will...

"Ah, where do I start"...

"A few of these can't hurt"...

"I'll get back to these later"...

No time for love potions now...

This After-Bath Potion is fantastic, too bad I LOVE showers... although it sounds like it would be a hit over ice also...

"This looks like a good one"... "Now to assemble the ingredients"...

This Royal Dalton Wizard followed me home "Many Full Moons Ago"... "Hey Big Foot, would you go find me an Eye of Newt"...

I'd like you to meet "Big Foot", he's a bronze creation of Tim Cotterill, who is known as Frogman... If you've never seen his incredible bronze frogs, You MUST... Look him up and treat yourself to his whimsy... I bought this owl when he first introduced him in 1998 and he's been our library mascot ever since...

"Big Foot" by Tim Cotterill...Made of bronze...
