The Witch in the Forest.....

by Ladykelshan
 Age Group: Adult

The Witch in the Forest, , , had a "terrible rep'... for years and years, people had thought that she ate children..and "Their children"! to be more exact!!!
But, heavens no! This witch, had cable! This witch loved to cook! She watched all of the food channel shows!
When two little children, (Hansel and Grethel, respectfully) came to her door, one fine November morning, she bustled to the front door! "Oh, My! Two Weetle Chewdren" (that is how she said it!) The two children knocked, politely...and the witch hurried to open the door for them!
"Come in, Come in, you are most welcome!" Then Hansel said, "We are terribly lost, and my sister is starving, well, so am I!" The witch had "instant dinner guests!" (and no, she wasn't going to eat them!")
"Would you two like to sit down? I have just made a very fine meal, fit for a a nobleman!" she said beaming widely. The children smiled and nodded. Soon, they had gone thru the Asian Chicken Salad, the crablegs, and the tofu soup, and the large Texas toast, and the strawberry rhubarb cobbler! "Would you two like anything else? " she politely asked them. "No. we are FUUULLLL!" they laughed together.
Those two children had never known that the Witch in the Woods could cook so fine, and or make such a delicious and satisfying meal, as she had cooked that very night! "YOU are the Bomb!" said the boy. "YOu sure can cook, and bake!" said the little girl! "Do you think so?!" asked the forest witch, quite pleased.
"Oh, definitely so!" the two children said with gusto, in unison. "Why, you should open up a restaurant...I 'd bet that many, many people would come to eat here!" Well, do you know, that that is exactly what that witch decided to do, , , and do you know what else?
SHe named it after herself, "The FoReSt WiTcH " , and then she had a bakery, in which she dubbed "Hansel and Grethel's". Just as the children had predicted, people from nearly everywhere came to dine at "The Forest Witch"!
At Halloween, the Witch in the Forest, made up some dandies...there were, broomstick "pops", frozen and candied, candied eyeballs that moved and or jiggled, witches on broomstick sugar snaps, and cats made out of chewy ginger cookies! She also made more assorted yummies for more Hallows Eve trick or treaters!
Yes, The Forest Witch became, quite well known , and very well welcomed as well as a beloved "role model" for all, everywhere. Nobody warned their children, about the nasty old witch in the woods, as she was a caring, and quite loving senior citizen!
...and oh, did I forget to mention? Yes, I think that I did... after their "huge dinner" the first night at the Forest witches' home, she walked with them to where they thought that they lived, and then their parents and they talked all night long, about her plans..and they all decided to live near by.. as the Forest Witch was so taken with the whole family, and wanted them to live next door!
You see, she wasn't REALLY a bad person at all....there was just a lot of BAD PRESS! It just goes to show you, that you just can't trust the Media all of the time!!!!
P.S. They lived and ate happily ever after!
