Potions | How to Savor an Eyeball

Granny warned them you have to do some creepy stuff at Witch School. Today, they learned to savor eyeballs. Although I think Stupid Granny is an idiot most of the time, I do appreciate that she teaches them things like this. Some thoughts:

First, eyeballs are normally an appetizer or a garnish. They are seldom used to decorate desserts. Brava to the girls for expanding the many uses of this delectably terrifying treat.

Second, they taste best at room temperature, so be sure to leave them out for a bit before serving so they can heat or cool depending on if they were refrigerated or freshly harvested.

And finally, talk with your mouth full despite admonitions from your elders. There are few things prettier than eyeballs slopping around and squirting and oozing in someone’s oral cavity. Don’t be afraid to show it off.

Things heard in Granny’s kitchen during this lesson at Witch School today…

• I think the blood vessels are giving the white part a strange taste, They taste better if you can avoid the bloody parts.

• I like mine pushed down into the cupcake.

• I like mine sitting on top of the frosting.

• The iris tastes better than the pupil.

• Eyeballs remind me of gummy candy.

I am so proud of these undaunted little wonders. No fake squeals or squeamishness. Just fearless going after it full throttle. Witch material if I ever saw it!
