My third Hug in Bat Cave, NC was quite a whimsical encounter. This Hug was of a smaller tree (possibly a dogwood) that has quite a long and bumpy nose. I knew when we met this tree was a cousin to Albus Dumbledore with his thin-frame, long face and crooked nose.
Thus, I began helping this tree show his fanciful self in an outwardly fashion. To accomplish this, I did the following:
· Eyes: peanut butter, pineapple rings, white icing, chestnuts and dogwood berries
· Nose: peanut butter and candy corn
· Facial hair: peanut butter and popcorn
· Mouth: strawberry icing
· Arms: strawberry icing and marshmallows
· Hat: peanut butter and green leaves
Now, looking at him, I really do think this is a relative to a wizard who has transfigured himself into a vegetative state. He makes me tickled inside since he is not conforming to just having an expression, but showing it proudly. I also think it is appropriate to have a wizard-like figure in this forested area. It gives the entire grove a mystical feeling as if I am in Narnia or waiting for fairy nymphs to appear.
