You may be wondering why I’m featuring this lovely picture of a beautiful witch on this particular day. Well, since this is Christmas Eve in Russia, you might think of her as the Frost Maiden, granddaughter to Ded Moroz (the Slavic Santa Claus). And since today is also Epiphany, when children in many Catholic countries receive their presents, you might think of her as Befana, the witch who performs that function in Italy. Befana is traditionally depicted as an old lady, but since Italy is Italy sexy Befana images are now quite common there; besides, if I were an immortal witch with magical powers you can bet I wouldn’t go around looking like a hag. Befana is a Christianized version of the minor Roman goddess Strenia, who was herself associated with the Greek witch-goddess Hecate. So as you can see, a sexy witch image is totally appropriate for this first day of the carnival season…and besides, it’s my blog and I’ll use just about any excuse I can think of to post a picture of a beautiful fantasy chick.
If I was an immortal warlock with magical powers one of the first things to go would be my vanity. Otherwise I’d almost certainly descend into megalomania like so many other godlike beings.

Maggie. you’ve told us before where you obtain these great images but I’ve forgotten.
This one was just the result of a Google image search. 🙂
The Frost Maiden’s looking good, indeed. But you need no excuse to post a picture of a spectacularly-beautiful human-type woman, unless you run out of pictures of your lovely self. (Hint, hint!)

Um, on a day ending in “y?” 😀
And we are so glad that you do!!
Is there any way of speaking to you via phone?
No offense, but a lot of people want to speak to me by phone. If you like you can email me and explain what you’re looking for, but obviously I can’t promise without knowing anything.
Hi what a wonderful witch to light up your day.
I am from India and maybe never meet you but you do wonders to perk up my life and horizon. You give dignity to what you do and what more can one expect.
