Divination LBOE

This is a "granny square" cozy for my Tarot cards... perhaps now I can keep track of them and they won't disappear.

Valentines Day nummies

These are pictures of the goodies I made for this year's Valentine's Day...

Awesome RAOK

Today I got a great RAOK from a very generous Ravenclaw - Selina Starfire

I got a lovely Knitter's magazine with some fantastic and inspiring patterns, a Dixie coffee cup with the fixings for a homemade mocha late- and seen on that cup is a cute cup cozy (and the opposite side has skull fabric-- too cool ;) lol), some vampirey hearts, a lovely postcard from Selina, and super squishy skeins of some lovely yarn fit for a Slytherin ^_^   

Thank you so very much! I love it all and the candy and late is already gone :D

Colin Creevey Challenge

1) my boggart - that previously appeared as a dementor... now a harmless statue ;)

2) Lupin's full moon wolfsbane potion

3) Harry's unsigned Hogsmede permission slip

4) The missing fat lady's portrait... she is still missing since he painting has yet to be repaired

5) The Marauder's Map

The Trophy

I give up... I have no idea. Clues point both to Diagon Alley in London and Hogsmeade Village. I am going to have to go with the latter since the items included could be purchased but the Hogs Head is just too much of a clue.

So... I vote to look in Hogsmeade.

OWL POST!!! SQUEE :D

I was out of town when an adorable owl showed up at home. Thank goodness my mom was nice enough to take him in and look after him while he warmed up before making his way back to Agatha. I am so happy that the little owl missed out on our horrible snowfall that started last night. :( We really don't need more snow.


What I unpacked from the adorable box :)

As I began to rip off carefully remove the tissue paper look at what I found...



Two nummy pumpkin pie candles. Mmmmm my favorite :) Two adorable post it pads of paper. And look at the lovely Wanderer earrings!!! I love them and am wearing the round pair right now :D


An absolutely adorable bag! I love the way it looks and it really is so very roomy; perfect for toting my other kit and knitting items.

Nummy nummy nummies :) Snickers, Ferrero (squee) and nutella :) Nuts galore! Unfortunately the Ferrero is already gone but they were just so good ;)

Rounding out my kit is... some lovely red and black Galway worsted wool. Hat and fingerless mittens patterns from my Ravelry favorites. And a Brittany hook!!! SQUEE :) oh how I love them so much!

Thank you, thank you, thank you so very much Agatha! I love everything so much :)
I think I am going to get cracking on those patterns soon because it is getting quite cold and very snowy here.

You are totally awesome and thank you again!!!

To Do: Jose Cuervo Cookies

1 cup of water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp salt
1 cup or brown sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup nuts
2 cups of dried fruit
1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequila

Sample the Cuervo to check quality. Take a large bowl,
check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality,
pour one level cup and drink.

Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter
in a large fluffy bowl.

Add one peastoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point
it's best to make sure the Cuervo is still ok, try another
cup just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy.

Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup
of dried fruit.

Pick the frigging fruit off the floor.

Mix on the turner.

If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaters just pry
it loose with a drewscriver.

Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity.

Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who geeves
a sheet. Check the Jose Cuervo. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts.

Add one table.

Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can
find.

Greash the oven.

Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall
over.

Don't forget to beat off the turner.

Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the
Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the wishdasher.

Cherry Mistmas !
