You've heard of Glenda, the good witch, right! Well, meet Lenda, the Late Witch! Poor Lenda is late wherever she goes. This year she missed Halloween completely and didn't take flight until the snow started to fly. And ... well ... you can see where she ended up! Head first in a snowbank! Poor, Lenda! The only treats she collected this year were ... snow cones! LOL!!!
