FAIRIES-POEMS-VIDEOS-TOO...BY MY DEAREST BIG SIS CINDY..

Fairies-Poems-Videos-Too!..By My Dearest Big Sis Cindy
Fairies like to be clandestine, so what better way of moving around, bustling human markets and towns 
than to be invisible? Invisibly is one reason why the little people are so so feared by mankind: one never knows where they are and what they might over-hear, which is why it is important to use euphemisms when speaking of them. All you might know of their presence is a jinging of invisible bridles, a rustle of duchess satin, a scent, or the notes of an unsettling air on the wind. The only evidence of a fairy visit might be the loss of a favorite drinking vessel, disturbed sheets, or a space in the cradle.
Fairies are skilled at camouflage, and by their attire and movements are able to disguise themselves as lichen, a sapling, a butterfly, or fish,   Sometimes a fairy might be visible to one protagonist in a story often to a child , but invisible to companions. A cloak or cap is often  the source of invisibity, or hints at other supernatural powers the foxglove bonnets pay homage to a powerful herbal remedy, and the antlers worn by the Manitou nod at the ceremonial magic of the Algonquin people. The Grimm brothers say that we don't' usually see dwarves - not because they live below ground, but because when abroad they generally sport protective invisible - making "fog hat". The Irish Merrow don a small red-feathered cap that proffers an ability to live beneath the waves. Removing the magical cap on land is a perilous act, since, without it, like the skinned Selkie, the Merrow cannot return home. In this way they may fall prey to men and become the slave of a human master, who  might demand wishes or even marriage.  In Italy, the Folletti are equally sought for their  caps, which if caught  by a human bring  a reward of gold. 
The fairies went from the world, dear, Because men's hearts grew cold; And only the eyes of children see What is hidden from the old... kathleen foyle

Enchanted Forest

Enchanted Forest For you, please don't feel blue! Let us dance!


Please do not dishearten. Let us dance in the land of fantasy,

Where the land sparkles of fairy dust and fairy love.

Enchantment, and by the fairy magic that is everywhere in the air

Like tiny lanterns flitting all over in the enchanted forest do they come;

To give blessings of happiness and love to all from the purest of faerie-ness.

Let us reach out to distant lands and touch our distant fairy friends with ethereal hands!

And joyous shall we be when we come to know who we truly are within ourselves.
And to remember how far we have come and never again to be separated from the angels,

faeries and other accompanying ethereal beings and denizens of the Enchanted Forest.
They are with us always whether we see them or not.

You need only quiet the mind and listen for the tiny voices within. - Hear them speak.



Happiness and joy through the lands; So shall we feel within our hearts and hands,

with love shall we rejoice, we shall stand forever with our friends in the Enchanted

Forest, never again shall we have the need to leave.

Don’t be so sad, we love you, we are all as one.

Cynthia

THE NEKO NO KAI CAT

 Neko No Kai Cat-
The Tale of the Neko No Kai Cat-Good Afternoon my dear friends, followers, supporters and readers too! I found one more tale for you all today. The Neko No Kai Cat or its also called the black spotted two-tailed cat. The tale is linked around the Motoyoshi family farmhouse. The son of the family, whose name was Genjiro was fond of cats & decided to take the cat, he found in the family farm and care for it. Genjiro was a healthy boy, but since he started taking care of the cat, he started looking sickly & getting quite emaciated and weak too!  The boy didn't have any particular illness that his parents could see & the doctors  couldn't explain the slowing decline on their once healthy young boy. As time went on & Genjiro got worse, his parents blamed his condition on the cat his found and was caring for.
For one thing, they noticed about the cat-it would be curled up in their son Genjiro's bedclothes everyday, the same clothes that Genjiro slept in. They thought without a doubt, he was catching some sort of infection or even an allergy from the cat. So like any good parents they tried many ways to get rid of the Cat... Fearing for the health for their son Genjiro. These were; throwing the cat out the door every evening, carry the cat to different towns to abandon it, however the cat would always manage to find its way back to their home and to their son. After a time the cat stayed away from everyone but Genjiro. The parents could no longer even get close to the cat. All awhile their son Genjiro's condition would get worse and worse and his parents insisted that Genjiro get rid of the cat because of his health. One time Genjiro mother had him take up the cat and she followed them as they walked to a distant town, going so far that the cat could never find its way back or at least she thought so. Well, her plan backfired on her because when they made it as far as Koshinzuka, Genjiro's mother had lost sight of both her son and the Cat! She looked around, but couldn't see or find her son anywhere. So with nothing else to do she recruited some of the local children in the town of Koshinzuka to help her search, but sadly it was fruitless. There was no sign of her son Genjiro & his mother was forced to return home alone. A few days later it seems that a dog was seen carrying a human arm in its mouth, in the vicinity of Saidaiji temple. The arm had scraps of a torn kimono hanging off of it & these kimono scraps were taken to Genjiro's mother for her to see. (To identify if it was her son) Sadly, she did confirm that they were Genjiro's, the same kimono he had been wearing the day of his disappearance. The official finding was that the Cat must have attacked and killed Genjiro and then devoured most of the boy's body. Given the strange nature of the Cat, no one was really surprised. Well, I have done a few Japaneses legends of Mystery Cat Tales and most of them aren't too kindly. This one is probably around the 17th century. I had a few other images of the Cat but they aren't as pleasant. I found this on a Japaneses site for which I will leave the link on the bottom for you. I hope you all enjoyed the post. I have a not so nice appointment tomorrow, so that is why I am writing late tonight, so you all will have a story to read. I don't know how it will go. And how my mood will be. It's my psyololgist the one that manages my MEDs. Anyway, I love you all very much

MARCAOU CAT

Marcaou Cat-
Good afternoon my dearest friends, followers, supporters, and readers. I found another interesting magical Creature Cat but this one is from France. They are French fairy cats which are called 'Marcaou Cats'. These Marcaou Cats are born to fairies that would poison unlucky humans. The Marcaou Cat would wait by the dying humans bed to guide their spirits go to the underworld. The fairy queens themselves gave birth to these Margotines, Cats; beautiful white courtier cats that could shape-shift into attractive young women and bewitch unsuspecting men as they slept. Well, a rather interesting Cat of sorts legend. I hope that you found it as interesting as myself. My dears. Love you all very much

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
Your Friend always

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
4-cups flour
2-tsp. Soda (club soda)
2-cups sugar
5-cups blended oatmeal...
24-oz. Chocolate chips
3-cups chopped nuts (your choice)
