But you must understand that the substitution will result in a random side-effect, which could mean that the object of your spell could both fall in love with you and be determined to kill you.
Basically, it makes a Ted Bundy potion by default.

7. Yeah, but you can control that by |
|
adding half a cup of chopped black widow spider web mixed with a dash of nutmeg.
But whatever you do, DON'T substitute cinnamon for the nutmeg. This would be a VERY BAD thing to do.
Not that I've ever tried it... :evilgrin:

Shoulda thought of that.
'Scuse me, but there's someone at my door with a bouquet of roses and an axe. Gotta see what they want.

4. Depends. Is is just the Friday night card game, or is family coming over? |
|
For family, better stick with the eye of newt. Otherwise, I hear Costco has some pretty good deals on 6-lb. packs of frog spleen.
