    Make sure you get lots of partially hydrogenated oils in your diet.

    That witch lives too easy. She has not been properly corrupted. I suggest the following remedy; “A potion for general evil, from the cauldron of Hecat.”

    Directions: In a large cauldron, bring water to a boil. Add poison toad. Wait for three meows of a brindled cat and one cry of a hedgehog. At this point a harpie may also show up and attempt to coach you. Stir in goat gall, add hemlock and yew. Insert witch’s mummy, it should fall to dust and dissolve. Add all body parts except the tiger entrails and baboon blood. Tiger entrails must be added last, and the mixture immediately removed from heat. Stir in baboon blood to aid cooling and discourage thickening.

    Uses: When correctly brewed, the fumes of this potion smother the heart and brain of the victim, as well as inducing murderous greed and an innate recognition of other evil minds nearby. If this mixture is drunk, the body and soul may be contorted and defaced beyond all recognition. For a therapeutic and usually short-lived bout of utter madness, simply attempt to find all the ingredients for this concoction.
