Juniper was quite proud of herself and the way her potion was going. Everything was going so far so good. Really though it wasn’t hard to do. That was saying a lot for her. Potions wasn’t one strongest points, it never was. But this wasn’t too bad. She continued along writing down the instructions and following along with them.

Next she took the measuring spoon, with a silent scourgify she cleaned it of dirt or anything that wasn’t supposed to be there. Measuring out three tablespoons and leveled it out with the knife. Adding that to her cauldron and stirring it three times in a clockwise motion. A faint liliac? It was always nice to get those little color descriptions. Well it looked like a light lilac. That was a faint wasn’t it?

Now it was time to take the willow leaves. She crushed them between her fingers. Each leaf was crushed one at a time. One Stir Two Stir Three Stir Four Stir Five Stir. After that the willow bark was added. Willow must be something that was really good for taking care of business. A natural healer of some sort.

Simmer time. Juniper went ahead and labeled her sample vial, and since she was allowed to do whatever she wanted to do with the rest she labeled another vial with bruise paste. When the contents of the cauldron turned to a thick yellow paste, she filled both of the vials. Taking the vial labeled with her name and info up to the front.
