Just because it looks like spring doesn't mean it is, and another spell is needed to make the cottage secure. In the old hutch, which is filled with many treasures collected over the years, grab several candles - one green and two white, a few aged scrolls and your favorite feather quill. Don't forget a photo of a wolf - hear that lonely howl in the distance?

Gently place your items on the counter, standing the three candles close together beside the photo. Light them one by one as you read aloud the wolf protection spell from the parchment to keep you safe this night.

Now feeling secure with the cauldron lit and the scent of flowers filling the air it's time to eat. Grab for the nearest recipe book - the one with a recipe for witch's stew. This one has many tasty ingredients: cabbage, carrots, potatoes and garlic. It's a good thing the garden was plentiful this year.

Between herbs and vegetables and mysterious things, there's lots to cook up in a witch's kitchen. What's cooking in yours?
