Next Steps.. Professor Lafay told them what to do next and of course, Beatrice jotted it down on her parchment.
' Add the 10 drops Murtlap Essence' Beezus read silently as her hands started to grab the ingredient that was mentioned.
"Murtlap Essence.." she said aloud as she read the label on the small bottle that she was holding. After confirming that it was indeed the needed ingredient, she propped the dropper into the bottle. Afterwards, she squeezed the dropper and counted that 10 drops would be added to the mixture. Getting her wooden stirrer, she then stirred the mixture eight times in a counter-clockwise direction.
Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir.
When that was done, the eaglette referred to her parchment once again for the next step which was to add the two sprigs of Parsley. She took one sprig first and held it above her cauldron and loosely she crushed it. Beezus did the same with the second sprig.
