It’s time I defied the stereotypical fairytale mumbo jumbo stories of witches being evil, being green, having warts, eating children and so on and so on. I’ll tell you the number one secret spell to good cookin’ is slow cookin’, which can best be achieved with a crock pot, no need for a cauldron, maybe in the days of old, but to let the steam and heat slowly cook a meal in a big pot helps soften and simmer in the spices, and truth be told you can cook anything in a crock pot, from meat to cakes, not just stews. Here’s to defying ancient tall tales and stereotypes; my name may be Broom Hilda, but I’m only wicked in the kitchen, just check out the recipes I present in this book entitled: Broom Hilda the Witches’ Wicked Kitchen Cauldron Cook Book! Plug in your crock pots and put on your favorite pair of comfortable shoes, you know the ones, with the curly pointed tips, and don’t forget your pointy hats as well with the wide brims…Book Trailers:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAFWBUdAX9Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbG5XFHopzMYou might also want to check out my compadres works:Chef Wolfie's Hair Raising Hot PlatesChef Wolfina's Howling Halloween Holiday DelightsZiegfried the Zombie's Good Eats GuideSpencer Spider's Succulent Salads Cook BookSkinny Bone Jone's Culinary DelightsScarey Crow's Straw Berry Scares Cook BookJack O.

Note: For Columbus Day, 1998In the 15th century, a fabulous journey awaited those who could unlock the secrets of the Earth's geography. Beautifully written and emotionally compelling, 1492: Admiral of the Ocean-Sea tells of the famous adventures of Columbus and his men, who sailed into the almost mythical seas beyond the horizon in search of the "New World," in the hopes of attaining vast wealth and power. This brilliant book, by best-selling author Mary Johnston, traces the long route taken by explorers hoping to locate Asia. Based on their limited means and understanding of navigation, they struggle to find their position, while at the same time encountering many natural wonders and exotic peoples. Tensions build as they appear to become increasingly lost. Columbus and his crew begin to lose hope, until they finally receive the vindication of their bold vision. 1492: Admiral of the Ocean-Sea pays special attention to the conditions of the late 15th century period. It describes the competition between classes and ethnic groups in Spain, as well as the clashes that occurred when people from two very different cultures, native American and European, interact. These issues are not merely abstract, since we see them vividly through the eyes of a disenfranchised individual: a Christian sailor of Jewish background, who has been compelled to lead a secretive and solitary existence. The incidents of his life are brought to us in a handsome, elegant language, uncommon in the books of our day.
