“Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and caldron bubble.” Halloween is the time pull out the cauldron and brew magical potions. Halloween is also a time to party with witches and vampires, to interact with ghost and ghouls, and to party with the undead.
But since we are mere mortals I have five martinis that are sure to get you into the Halloween spirit.
Enjoy!
