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.

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 Alice Hoffman
(Practical Magic )

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?

Reviews for "From Beginner to Pro: Mastering Magic with the Compact Tikes Magic Set"
1. John - 1/5
I was extremely disappointed with the Compact Tikes Magic Set. The tricks included were so basic and unimpressive that my 5-year-old niece could figure them out within minutes. The quality of the props was also subpar, with flimsy cards and cheap plastic wands that were easily breakable. I expected more from a magic set that claims to be perfect for beginners and professionals alike. Overall, it was a waste of money and I would not recommend it.
2. Sarah - 2/5
I bought the Compact Tikes Magic Set for my son's birthday, thinking it would be a fun and educational toy. However, I was let down by the lack of clear instructions and the complexity of some of the tricks. Even as an adult, I found it difficult to understand how to perform certain illusions. The set also did not come with a DVD or any online tutorials, which would have been helpful for beginners like us. Additionally, the included props seemed flimsy and easily breakable, making it hard to demonstrate the tricks properly. Overall, I was not impressed with the Compact Tikes Magic Set and would not recommend it for young children or beginners.

My daughter was excited to receive the Compact Tikes Magic Set, but her enthusiasm quickly faded after we opened it. The tricks in the set were overly complicated, and the instructions provided were confusing and difficult to follow. The props also seemed poorly made, with cards that bent easily and a wand that broke within a few uses. It's a shame because my daughter had been looking forward to learning magic tricks, but this set was a letdown. I would advise anyone considering this set to look for a different option that offers clearer instructions and better quality props.
