Guess what? I got some "wizard" elastics. They have an awesome picture of a merlin-type wizard on them. Powerful little things.

No, they are all that boring color that you see on the picture of the package I posted earlier (That little O shaped thing is one of the elastics).

You could eat something purple though, they stain easily :wink:
