A Thought for Today

 

Through the ages I have traveled
I have seen all there is to know
I have entered the space that lies untouched
My power has bridged time
Energy has filled the void
Their voices can be heard
I know what they have been taught
Their memories travel with me
For I know who they are
Our circle remains unbroken
For they call to me
I have come freely to know them
They have passed their knowledge to me
I can feel their thoughts
Their wisdom is mine
From time to time
From Witch to Witch
We are one …

 

—A Witch’s Prayerbook

A Laugh for Today – 33 Best Laffy Taffy Jokes to Sweeten Your Day

From Reader’s Digest

Move over Snapple facts and make room for these hilarious jokes found on Laffy Taffy wrappers.

One of the sweetest flavors of childhood is undisputedly the chewy, juicy, sugary, and cavity-inducing Laffy Taffy. You may have even argued with classmates over the best flavors—strawberry being superior, obviously. Now produced by the Ferrara Candy Company, these individually wrapped taffy rectangles that come in a variety of flavors have been bringing joy to kids and even adults (no shame here!) since the 1970s. Laffy Taffy was launched under Kathryn Beich Candies in Bloomington, Illinois as Beich’s Caramels, but was later renamed Beich’s Laffy Taffy. The candy was bought by Nestle in 1984 which then sold the brand to the Ferrara Candy Company in 2018, producing the taffy we know and love today. But chewing on this tasty treat wasn’t the only intriguing part of the experience. So if you’re a fan of Snapple facts, you’re going to love these funny puns and more.

Beich really put the “laffy” in Laffy Taffy. Inside each individual wrapper, you’ll find a joke. Since the launch, the jokes have been written and mailed in by children, making for some super silly and hilarious humor. These aren’t your typical knock knock jokes for kids. Laffy Taffy jokes are clever, punny, and may even make you think a little. We have all the candy punsice cream puns, and cookie puns that you could dream of, but this roundup of the best Laffy Taffy jokes people found on their wrappers will definitely get you giggling and eager to share with friends.

A Thought for Today – The Lady of the Moon Poem

The Lady of the Moon

To all things, she’s attuned

Always smiling

And quite beguiling

Looking down

On the world around

Her nightly journey

Light and pearly

Quaint and lively

In stunning ivory

Ever timeless

She calls in silence

Whether waxing or waning

Shrinking or gaining

Whether new or full

She exerts her pull

Illuminating and pulsating

Stimulating and captivating

She’s magical

And classical

Her history

Filled with mystery

How she cleverly

Shares her energies

The many times

Ageless signs

Gorgeous sight

On a full moon night

She divides

Our ocean tides

Many mazes

In her phases

The nightly seeing

By every being

Plus in our dreams

And in-between

If you’ve missed her power

Wait for hours

You’ll see her soon

Lovely Lady of the Moon
