Ever had a relationship you wish you could just delete from your memory? Wouldn’t it be amazing to skip the breakup blues and fast-forward straight to the “Who? Never heard of him” phase when people ask?
Ever Wish You Could Forget Your Ex? Same!
This is like the Carly Simon song – You’re So Vain – this sentiment I have otwards ex’s, doesn’t actually apply to one particular individual but a combination of all of them!
- The ex who thought “Netflix and chill” meant I cook and clean while he scrolled social media and pointed out hot chicks to me, disguised as outfit ideas for improving my wardrobe
- The ex who borrowed my car and returned it on empty. Every. Single. Time.
- The ex who gave me workout equipment for Valentine’s Day. (Nothing says romance like unsolicited dumbbells.)
- The ex who thought “quality time” meant me watching him play video games for six hours
- The ex who wore socks to bed and still somehow managed to get cold feet about commitment
That’s exactly where The Witch Wears Prada was born. Sakara is a witch done wrong by her ex and she doesn’t want to waste one more second thinking about him. Unfortunately, for Sakara, her forgetting potion works a little too well and she forgets everything, including the fact that she’s a witch. So when she wakes up and her cat is talking to her, she’s not sure if she’s going crazy or hit her head on something!
Of course, because this is Clover Creek and it’s Halloween, forgetting your powers isn’t just inconvenient, it’s dangerous. There’s a murder to stop, a would-be assassin to dodge, and only the world’s sassiest talking cat (plus one cousin and some very skeptical cops) to help.
So yes, The Witch Wears Prada is about witches, small-town murder, and spooky Halloween vibes but at its heart, it’s about that universal fantasy: wouldn’t it be nice to forget the people who weren’t worth your time in the first place?
The Breakup Cure No One Tells You About (Until Now)
Here’s the exact recipe that Sakara uses to forget her ex!
Ingredients for Root Beer Float Forgetting Potion
• 2 heaping scoops of French Vanilla Ice Cream
• Root Beer
• 4 Maraschino Cherries
• Frozen glass mug
Directions
1. Scoop ice cream into frozen mug
2. Pour in root beer

Incantation
Make sure to repeat this twice: once before drinking and again right after drinking your potion and then close your eyes and count backwards in multiples of 3 from 100 down to one. By the time you’re done, you’ll have forgotten all about what troubles you.
Memories that trouble me
Trouble me no more
Be gone
Float away
Far, far away
To a place where you can bother me no more
