As it turns out, someone put the Dip in the oven and left it there.



Now that the Dip is back with us, the nachos will taste better.

Uh, why is Jade turning green?

Please don't tell me that she tried to use magic again.
She always gets spells wrong.



Jade?




Jade?



Jade, is that you?










Well, thankfully fried frog legs are not on the menu here.

I had better go to the local library and find a book on magic spell. Maybe I can turn Jade back to normal before anything else bad happens to her.

OK, I'm back from the library with a spell book.
Thankfully, I arrived there before it closed today.
It may take a few minutes for me to find the spell that will return Jade to normal.

By the way, I found a recipe for the Dip. I will make a fresh batch after I turn Jade back to normal.

We do want Jade back to normal . . . right?

Make her come back in a bikini!

Nah! I don't want to have trouble with boonedoggy61.

Hmmm . . . I wonder if he likes frog legs.

This is God's honest truth: When I was a teen in school I had to read Stephen King's book, Salem's Lot. It was so scary to me I had to walk to the beach, in broad daylight, with people around, to read it. The scariest part of the book, that didn't make it to the movie part (if I remember correctly) The vampire had finished with the baby in the crib and had tossed it aside to the corner of the crib like a used doll (or ragdoll). That's an exact quote from the book, but it was scary enough for me to remember the gist of it even now Vampires sskeeer me

Pfftt... I forgot to add the MOST important thing....Welcome back Jade, we missed you, even if Dodo can make a pretty good drink here it's just not the same

Hmmph. My spells have never backfired that badly. (I don't think.)

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmph!

That'll teach him to mess with me.

I done turned him into a frog.

Hes probably out a lookin for flies.

*giggle, giggle*

Im feelin kinda horny,

ima callin Boone!

What Jade thinks she looks like:


What Jade looks like to everyone else:

Apparently, Jade hasn't looked in a mirror and seen what she did to herself.

I had better change her back before she finds out and freaks out.


[Flips pages of spell book.] Hmmm. What spell am I to use? [Flip, flip, flip.]

Ah. This one looks promising . . . ahem!

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
You have got yourself in trouble.
Put your spells back on the shelf.
Now become your normal self.

Now that Jade is back to her normal self, I'll go make another batch of Dip for the nachos.

However, before I do . . .



. . . here is a batch of caramel popcorn for Jade to eat.
If she is busy stuffing her face with something, then perhaps she won't try any more magic spells.

Bartender, make mine Kentucky bourbon.

Jade, are you going to give that gentleman the Kentucky bourbon that he ordered?




Jade?




Of course she isn't. That would require her to actually work.

Sigh! Now I have to be the bartender as well as the new manager.


Here you go, heavenlyboy34 . . .



Did you want that in a glass?




Here, try one of our snacks that the bar just got in. The first bag is free . . . today only, that is.



Once our new restaurant is open, this will be on the menu:

BARTENDER!! Where's my drink?!! If it's not here in a few minutes you can kiss your tip goodbye.

I definitely need to hire someone else to tend to the bar.

Ya got that right! You're going to lose a lot of business with this kind of crappy service.

Since I am being generous, your first drink is on me, but just this one time.

I had better put the news signs out in front.

Hello!^-^
