The Magic Store is a popular animated series produced by WildBrain and Nickelodeon. It is known for its stunning visual effects that captivate viewers of all ages. The show is set in a magical world where anything is possible, and the animation effects bring this world to life. One of the standout effects in The Magic Store is the use of vibrant colors. The show is filled with a rainbow of hues that make each scene pop. From the lush green forests to the sparkling blue waters, every color is rich and beautifully rendered.
There’s a few things I’ve learned in life: Always throw salt over your left shoulder, keep Rosemary by your garden gate, plant Lavender for good luck and fall in love whenever you can.
I feel bad about this one, since somebody made a poster out of it (attributed to Shakespeare) and is selling it on Etsy. Probably more than one, I just happen to have spotted one.
I can see where everybody went wrong. Google it.
The first hit (which for me is “The Herb Gardener”) lists it like this:

Lavender and Shakespeare
(Winter’s Tale, iv. 4)
Aha, you think when you look quickly – that’s by Shakespeare! The Winter’s Tale! No, poor googler. Look closer at the rest of the page:

Lavender and Shakespeare
(Winter’s Tale, iv. 4)
Hot lavender, mints, savory, marjoram;
The marigold, that goes to bed wi’ th’ sun,
And with him rises weeping; these are flow’rs
Of middle summer, and I think they are given
To men of middle age.
This particular site is actually providing the source line before the quote. So, yes, Shakespeare did speak of lavender in The Winter’s Tale – that whole bit about “Hot lavender, mints, savory, etc etc etc…” The quote above? That’s apparently from Alice Hoffman.
What’s unfortunate is that all the other hits that attribute this quote to Shakespeare seem to associate it with The Winter’s Tale, so I wonder if they all came from that one I cite above.
Apparently this was even in the movie Practical Magic with Sandra Bullock?

Sally Owens:
Can love really travel back in time and heal a broken heart? Was it our joined hands that finally lifted Maria's curse? I'd like to think so. But there are some things I know for certain: always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.
