SITH CAT

SITH CAT OF THE HIGHLANDS-
Hello my Dearest, friends, Followers, Supporters and Readers of my humble blog. I found a new fun magick creature called the  Sith Cat from the Gaelic Legend of Scotland.
 It's basically a monstrous cat of Scotland Folklore. It would seem that the people of Scotland
Highland did not trust the Sith Cat. They believed that it could steal a person's 
Soul before it was claimed by the Gods by passing over a corpse 
Before they were able to complete the burial; Therefore, watchers called the 
'Fall Fadalach' were performed night & day 
To keep the Sith Cat away from the 
Corpse before burial. Methods of 
'Distraction'  would be such games as leaping & Wrestling, Catnip, riddles, & music would be Employed to
Keep the Sith Cat away from the room in 
Which the corpse is at rest. In addition, there were  No fires where the body lay, as it was legend that the Sith Cat was attracted to the warmth of the fire. On the Samhain, which is a Gaelic festival marking the ending of the harvest season and the 
Beginning of winter, it was believed that the Sith Cat would bless any house that left a saucer Of milk out for it to drink, but those houses that did not
Let out a saucer of milk would be cursed into having all of their cow's milk dry.
In some common folklore, it is also suggested that the Sith Cat are not Faeries 
But, witches that can transform into a cat. 
There are differences in the details in these tales regarding the 
Transformations of the Sith Cat into a witch. Some say that these witches are 
Limited to transforming into a cat nine times while others say the witch will be trapped 
In which ever form she takes in her ninth transformation. 
The Gaelic Silt Cat is described an enormous black BEAST! It's about the size of a very large dog with a white mark on its chest. It has shaggy rough fur like bristles instead of of soft fur of a normal cat. The SITH CAT, also has a menacingly arched back. The Highlanders of Scotland firmly believe  that this evil creature was the metamorphosed of a black magick witch! 
Well, that is the legend of the Sith Cat of the Highlands of Scotland.
I hope that you enjoy the short but sweet tale. 
Love you all

NEIMAN MARCUS COOKIES

Neiman Marcus Cookies-Recipe
Good morning my dearest Followers, Friends, & Readers. HAPPY FOOLS DAY! 
Well, for todays post I thought I would do an Urban Legend that is actually True! I'm not really good with pranks, so I hope that you all enjoy the tale. This one is actually True. It's called 'Neiman Marcus Cookies' and I found it in my book called 'The Colossal Book of Legends. From what the woman had said, in just the first couple of lines, I just had to tell her story.
This is the story;
'My daughter & I had just finished a salad at Neiman Marcus Cookies Cafe in Dallas & decided to have a small dessert. Because both of us are such cookie lovers. We decide to try the 'Neiman Marcus Cookie." It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe & the waitress said with a small frown, "I'm afraid not'. Well, would you let me buy the recipe? With a cute smile, the waitress said, yes. I asked how much? The waitress responded, "only two fifty'. I said great deal & just added it to my tab. Well, thirty days later, she received her visa statement from Neiman Marcus and her bill was $285.00. She had to look at the bill twice, then remembered that she had only spent 9.95$ for two salads and about $20.00 for a scarf. She glanced at the bottom of the statement and it said, "COOKIE RECIPE $250.00.
She said that was outrageous!
She called Neiman's accounting Dept and told them the waitress said 'two-fifty dollars to her'.
She asked if there was anyone there possible to interpret the phrase 'only two fifty?' Sadly Neiman Marcus refused to budge on the matter. They would not refund her money, because according to them, 'What the waitress told her is not our problem. You have already seen the recipe so we absolutely will not refund your money at this point.
She said, Okay, You folks got my $250. Now I'm going to have fun. She told the Neimans Accounting Dept, she was going to see to it that every cookie lover in the United States with an email account has a $250 Cookie Recipe from Neiman-Marcus for FREE! 
NOTE AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS TRUE URBAN LEGEN SHE SAID- 'THIS IS TRUE -PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON YOU KNOW!
It seems that they replied, 'I wished you wouldn't do this! However, the woman that Neiman Marcus wouldn't refund the $250.00 relied Well, you should have thought of that before! 
So there it is & and here is the Recipe to that could be halved-
Neiman Marcus cookies Recipe-
2-cups butter

GIANT SKRYMIR

Giant Skrymir~
Good afternoon, my dears & Welcome to my humble blog of creatures of the unseen! In this tale we are going to Scandinavia. The Norse mythology of the Scandinavia Giant of Skrymir. He is also known as an immense Frost Giant too. The tale of the Skrymir Frost Giant is thousands of years old & how it all began is on a cool night when the Gods, Thor, Loki & Thjalfi were traveling together through the woods. However, the Gods have made a few mistakes now & then. This happened to be one of those times. One of the Norse brothers of the Titans in Scandinavia. What happened is this; When the three Gods went looking for a place to sleep while in the high mountains, they mistook the Skrymir Giant's gloves as a cave. In my opinion, this is rather hard to believe that 3 Gods would make that kind mistake, but this is a very old story too. So on with the tale, it would seem that all three Gods lay down to sleep on the thumb part in one of the Giant Skrymir Gloves. In the morning Thor, Loki & Thjalfi were rudely awaken by the snoring of the Frost Giant Skrymir, who had snored so loud it shook the ground & forest that was all around them. To the Gods it felt like a huge earthquake. Thor attempted to stop the snoring by using his hammer on the skull of the giant, but he didn't even wake-up, he simply rolled over after brushing what he thought was a leaf on his head. The Skrymir Giant would in fact do this to protect himself during his slumbers  by placing an invisible mountain over his head, which of course is resisted to anything that might try to harm him. Well, this is the story, but interesting tale of the Giant
Skrymir and the three Gods - Thor,Loki & Thjalfi. I have found another

Versions of the tale, however, I hope you enjoy this one.
