~Endora Quote
Endora: [about being a witch] We are quicksilver, a fleeting shadow, a distant sound... our home has no boundaries beyond which we cannot pass. We live in music, in a flash of color... we live on the wind and in the sparkle of a star!
One of my favorite Halloween's was being Samantha to my Mom's Endora. Just thinking about her hair again cracks me up.!

~Bedknobs and Broomsticks ...Week-end
Happy Halloween-weekend everyone !Ok my week-end movie pick isn't that scary but, I have always loved this movie. My favorite part is when they go to The Island of Naboombu. I can't help but, sing along. I'm a sucker for Disney what can I say.I hope you enjoy my Halloween treat for you.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971)
An apprentice witch, 3 kids and a cynical conman search for the missing component to a magic spell useful to the defence of Britain.
How about munching on "Bedknobs and Broomstick Cookies" while you watch?
Ingredients:
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
10 pretzel rods, about 8 1/2 inches long, cut crosswise in half
2 teaspoons shortening
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Butterscotch-flavored chips, melted
Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F (180 C). Mix brown sugar, butter, water and vanilla in medium bowl. Stir in flour and salt. Shape dough into twenty 1 1/4-inch balls.
2. Place pretzel rod halves on ungreased cookie sheet. Press ball of dough onto cut end of each pretzel rod. Press dough with fork to resemble "bristles" of broom.
3. Bake about 12 minutes or until set but not brown. Remove from cookie sheet. Cool completely on wire rack, about 30 minutes.
4. Cover cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place brooms on waxed paper. Heat shortening and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth; remove from heat. Spoon melted chocolate over brooms, leaving about 1 inch at top of pretzel handle and bottom halves of cookie bristles uncovered. Drizzle with melted butterscotch chips. Let stand until chocolate is set.
Makes 20 snacks.
