OK, the short story I'm thinking of has the 2 elderly witches, Granny Something and her more level-headed friend. It's time for the annual Witch Festival, and the local snooty witches tell Granny not to compete because she always wins. They also tell her not to be so mean all the time. Hilarity ensues.

Anybody know the name of this story? And it's Pratchett, right? I actually have this still in paperback in some anthology or another on the shelf.

Hugs & Kisses to All!
It is "The Sea and Little Fishes" and can be found in Once More * With Footnotes but was originally published in Legends edited by Robert Silverberg.
