package

I am not sure if Wisty received my package, there has been nothing posted.
It might have been lost in the pre-holiday shuffle the muggle post goes through. You would think they would have figured out a better system by now.

This term has flown by so fast and I feel as if I have not done any group activities this term.

I am going to guess that the cup is in Hogsmeade hanging from the raffters where all of the cool mugs are.

last clue

Where in the World is Winnie #8

Stolen Quiditch World Cup Trophy

The term is over, a few bruises and a fractured forearm to show for it. WHAT FUN!!!
I go back home for the Holiday Season, we are suppose to be moving and Mom says the house is a mess with boxes piled everywhere.

Plus we also have a new kitten name Marmalade.
Isis seems to like him just fine.

i am off

taking the floo to florida today.

warm weather here i come

i have been spoiled once again!!

technology is great and it is also frustrating when pictures will not upload.
go to my flickr account to see the good-good-goodies from Miss Fleur.

She even included a gift for my K-9's which they love.

Right now I am wrapped up in the scarf which is tightly knitted. WOW!!!!!! Perfect tension on a scarf that is 6' long! The hat is supremely knitted as well and kept me warm today on this balmy winter day. I am not sure what fabric softener she uses but it smells nice.

Now, all I need to do is hook up with Neila to give her the kit or mail it off to her since we are having a hard time meshing schedules.

i can not believe that i forgot to blog last week. Then again nothing interesting happened last week.

my arm is still a bit sore from last weeks game even though Madame Pomfrey took care of it after the game. i did not think i would have so much fun as a beater since i am a rather passive person. it works wonders for frustrations.

I was sent an Owl yesterday to let me know there is something coming my way, I can not wait. I love getting gifts and presents. These are the kind of surprises one should have every day. Not the kind of surprise that makes you hate getting out of bed....

WOW

DID this week pass by quickly. Between practice, schoolwork and creating a potion that smells like fall, I almost forgot to post.

Our Headmistress was in Giza to visit the pyramids and maybe in Dubi? Not so sure....

Winnie

Our World Traveling Headmistress is in Mexico. Where they celebrate the Day of the Dead. It is one of the biggest religious outings the country celebrates. I would go just for the food!

This weeks weather has been great for practice and the air is smelling of Fall that I sometimes wish it was Fall all year round. Or maybe get it in a Parfume... Wonder if I could make something in Potions...

Off to go try.

its movie night

Winnie is currently waiting to speak to Cyprian Youdle a ghost that was cursed during a quidditch match in 1857. I think her current location is Appleby, North Lincolnshire, England. If not there, then she is somewhere in the Deep South, in a Dry County talking to Elvis...who is also known as Bubba.

I had no idea that popcorn and rootbeer soda could make be burp!!
Nightmare on Elm Street is by far my favorite

Pre-Winter

It has rained the entire week. I am glad the weekend of the Bon-Fire was nice. Although a bit more of the fall warm weather would have been ideal for the beginning of Quidditch. Even with all of the rain we have been practicing, I am so glad that we have warm towels waiting for us when we are done. That and a super long bath make all of the hurts so worth it.

Today we do not have class so I am snuggled inside next to the fireplace with some tasty hot chocolate and some tasty cookies. I am almost done with my knitting for Wisteria's kit. I hope she likes them because I have to be honest and say the colours are making my eyes twitch.

Waverly still has yet to call me about going on a short trip on Saturday so I am going to think of something to do just incase I do not hear from her. I have a muggle series called True Blood on DVD I could watch them. I have read all of the books so we shall see if muggles bugger up book to series as much as we do. Creative license and all that crap.

Another series I have been enjoying is call Blood in the Wire. I think the lead male is sort of cute in that idiot savant sort of way. Dean laughs at me, but hey...sometimes cute is just cute....

I miss Violent, I wish she would have come back to so I could have someone to create new potions with...I miss her swearing in French.

Bon-Fire

Rumor has it Headmistress was in London last week and is in Quebec, Montreal. She is in the search of Maple Syrup. Has anyone pointed out to her that Fall is not the season for tapping the Sugar Maple trees? Although, I am certain she will find some wonderful syrups in the shops.

Bonfire on Saturday was grand fun. I have lost my voice from all of the singing the we did. Cassandra Crimsonchin must be a walking jukbox!! She knows alot of songs.

Wisteria makes some good s'mores. I ate so many of them I could have pucked.

Hermione and I danced and danced and danced. Waverly showed us a few of the dancers that are native her people.

Good times I hope were had by all. Can not wait to read what others had to say about the Bon-Fire

School work --

#1--Antonio dela Weasley
#2--Hermione Bagnold & Celeena Cree
#3--Eugene Nigeno
#4--Sarai Swiftrunner
#5--Cassandra Crimsonchin
#6--Wisteria-I have gone shopping with her so I know just what hints at her stash.
#7--Rowan Dragonsinger
#8--Olive Bumblebirch and Minerva Lovegood- both mention BURNT ORANGE and orange is my favorite colour.

Silly, I have spent three/four terms with Hermione and today I noticed that our birthdates are close to one anothers. PARTY THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!

Here I am again

Wisty sent me an Owl stating that I would look good as a Wigtown Wanderer. She said it was the axe that would be spectacular on my robe.

Rather gruesome if you think about it but on the same token, rather fitting. It is always the shy quiet ones you have to watch out for. So, my team mates have welcomed me back with open arms since I did not join them for Summer Camp.

I do need to get a new broom something a bit lighter and a tad bit faster.


I am off to go shopping before practice starts and I have no free time.

life on the road

Antonio and Uncle Vincent made some pretty yarn for me which came via Floo network cause we have started our family vacation muggle style.

So we have been listening to their music and it is not all that bad. Not too sure about most of it we saw this guy pass us on the ?interstate? keith urban
Mom says he needs a hair cut and a shave. I am wondering if we could get him as our DADA Professor.

my brother and i both like this music by metallica. Mom thinks we need to get our ears cleaned out. huh?!

dad likes and mom likes


more pictures to come when i find something interesting to see.
missing Hogwarts

COOLNESS

Look at what I won!!!

So, blogger is taking it's sweet time in uploading pictures...and so is flickr.

why do these two sites dislike me?

A wet soggy week

Which is fine for me since I have to pack everything from the last four terms this week. I will not be doing Summer Camp and I am not sure which house I am going to be in next term. Maybe the Hat will put me back in RavenClaw or maybe I will transfer abroad and learn in the States.

This term has flown by so fast that I am not sure it even happened. Except that I have pictures and stuff.

Did I mention that I was spoiled TWICE this term by HRM Frysia? She hates charts and I love them so I wrote a pattern out for her and she sent me CHOCOLATE-DARK CHOCOLATE. and some yummmmmmmy lace in a spring green.










is this not THE most prettiest green?
i do need a pattern for it so perhaps
you could suggest one for me?


here is Isis-she is practicing singing WELCOME HOME-to me.

school term is almost done, sigh....

the past few weeks i have been busy knitting on projects this is one i finished and putting into the mail for a wedding gift.

the pattern is the flared lace smoke ring cowl

wow so like the week has flown by.
violent and i went down to Hogsmeade last weekend cause she needed to do some shopping for someone in Slytherin House.

I asked my mother if i can go to summer camp this year and she said no. I guess we are doing so sort of family vacation and seeing the sites of the US. Not sure if I can stand to be in an automobile with my smelly brother for an extended period of time.

I have made a few more bags after making Cass's and I have figured out the secret to making the handle better than the instructions. Mom is sending me some of her quilting fabric that she thinks will work for handbags. Good thing she has a stash of fabric.

cooking on saturday

I can not believe the week has passed so quickly and I have not done much to report.
My roommate Chrysta had to leave and go home to help stop flooding. It appears that magic can not stop floods. What a shame.

My kit for my spoilee is done and I think I will send it out next week. She has so much stuff in her kit I am guessing it will take my grey heron to carry it instead of my cute little owl.

My Malabrigo star capelet #6 is coming along swimmingly and I might just try to do a more complex lace shawl over the summer break or just do back to my love of socks.

This morning for a dorm treat I made Scotch eggs. What you do is boil eggs, peel them, roll the sausage around the egg (i use jimmy dean), then for an added flavor roll them in mustard, then into a bread crumb mixture. Mine is Panko crumbs, corn meal and bread crumbs. Bake at 350 degrees for an hour.

It does help to have an extra pair of hands to help with the rolling. So when one is forming the sausage around the egg one can roll the sausaged egg in the mustard and then into the crumb mix.

uppermidwest meet-n-greet

neila is in blue,
i am in the middled
vanessa is in purple(waverly)


We hit three stores, had a late lunch at Brit's Pub, stopped at MOA and was back at Neila's house by 6pm where here hubby took this picture of us via my cellphone.

It was a great day and we did not hit three that were on my list of stores. That I guess will be for another day as well as dyeing of the yarn.
As soon as the weather here warms up a bit, I am going to have an afternoon get together, nothing is better than knitting in a park like setting with good friends and good food.

My-o-my

This week has blown by in a hurry. I missed playing quidditch this week. I was rather busy with homework, visiting my Uncle and Dean came to visit. i have not seen much of him this term his work has been keeping him busy.

I guess someone let out a sticky ball during quidditch and things became a mess. But that is nothing new, it seems at least once a term someone lets an experiment fly and things go wonky. I truely believe it is the free house elves that are doing it.

Violent is depressed because her Ravenclaw dumped her to date a Slytherin girl. Which is rather silly of him because she is/was Slytherin last term and changed houses because of him. I zapped him with a week long colour spell(yes, i have been working on this one). I would feel sorry for him changing to all of the colours of the houses when he talks to a girl but really why?

b. No

4. Why did the Dumbledore's move to Godric's Hollow?

Poor Violent has been stuck doing the worst job in the world scrubbing the bathrooms through out Hogwarts from being caught sneaking back in on Friday.

We have been working on breaking the spell Dumbledore put on her. She can only answer questions that are asked by Professors. It takes a long time for her to write out her answers long hand. She is very wordy.

I was in the infirmary on Monday. I had to leave class early because I have been struck down with the flu. It was nice that I had a private room since the flu can hit a body in many different places at once. Today I was sent back to my dorm room, I am not feeling 100% but I have been told it will take a few days to feel 'right as rain.' Whatever that means. Rain is cold and wet and I do not like being cold nor wet.

Time to take a nap, this headache is draining me.

Catch up...

Holy Cow has the time flown by this term. The first quidditch match has come and gone we tried hard to find the snitch but we did not get it. THIS TIME.

I was busted sneaking back into the dorm on Friday night and was not suppose to go to town with the rest of the girls but go to detention instead. Since Violent and I were not going to be allowed in the same room together, I decided I was going to try my astral project. Low and behold it worked. It felt great being able to fool Trewlaney but it does not take much.

Spent the rest of the afternoon teaching some of the first term students some of the drinking games we play when I go back and hang out the muggles. It was fun but Petunia was not there to do karaoke with me so I did not do any singing or howling as most people call it.

Antonio came up with a great homework project for us to do last week. I do not think I can top it even if I tried. I am going to have Violent come up with one too, makes my life a bit easier. :)

All in all things have been quiet here in Hufflepuff dorms. Kind of nice.

a. To Godric’s Hollow
b. To the Forbidden Forest
c. Back to the Burrow
d. To the site of the Quidditch World Cup

And so the term has begun and my roommates are settling in nicely. It is nice that we have roomed before so, we know each others quirks and know how to work around them.

We have a section of the room parted off for our dyeing stuff. It is close to the windows so we are not knee deep in stink. I have not created anything as of yet. I need to get some skeins put together and see if my Muse will come for a visit. It is the wrong time of year for her to come out but I am starting to feel the drain in the creativity department.


The three of us are in transfiguration together and have the luck of sitting at the same table. This should be interesting to see what happens in this class. I was suppose to take Divination again but I put my foot down and told my Uncle there was no way I was going to waste my time with tea leaves and glass balls. I would rather clean out stalls...and so, that is what I am doing. Which is fine with me. Isis did not come with me this term, she missed Bo too much. So, I am getting my animal fix this way.
Besides, I get to play with the babies...

Time to go and check on the 1st years and see what they are doing. They are rather loud.

can you believe it?!?

So, I had the pleasure of escorting Miss Waverly home today. She had forgotten her cauldron and some other supplies which one needs in order to excel at Hogwarts. While we were out and about I realized we had time to hit a few of the muggle shops.

I do love the floo network. Silly muggles, they never understand how we 'appear'.

I did find the most wonderful fabric for Cass's bag and some other bits too. THere is a ton of pressure to get this right otherwise I will be put on the Crucio list, which is not a right and proper place to be.

There are three people that know what the fabric looks like so I am safe with the fact that she will pester the two that are in her own house to find out the information.

Crap, I have to go. My pots are boiling over and I promised Chrysta I would not stink us out this weekend.

the kit.

i have started purchasing items for me kit. it is only one item but it is a start.

SWEEEET!!!!!!!

SWEET!!!!!!


two perfect gifts in one shopping trip!!

WoW

Man, has time flown by and I think I am just about settled into the new dorm as I can possibly be.

I did have to remove a wall for my extra stuff that came with me from Slytherin, like, well never mind. Dean came by to bring me a new scarf, have I mentioned how cute he is. He also said things are getting busy on his end so he might not be able to visit as much this term but is planning on being here for Valentines day and St. Patrick's day.

Chrysta has most of her stuff moved over from Birdland and Violent has not shown up yet from France. This has me concerned a bit but not too much. I sent Sam, Dean's brother to find her. He is better than a hounddog in the fall at finding people.

I have been slacking in getting this terms homework planned. I do have one student making a sock pattern and having it test knitted as her project for term. She needs to have weekly postings and pictures. I wish her all the luck. It is something that I have yet to tackle. I just can not find the time nor the energy to do so.

I had better get to making the assignments or I will be winging it...which might not be such a bad idea.

Monday

I am trying to clean up my room as best as I can knowing I am going to have two roommates this term.

Chrysta the Curse, as she says, It is a name, not a lifestyle. And Violette Black. This should be an interesting term because we all like to dye yarn and both of them are spinners.

Our room is going to smell like a wet dog that has been shaved badly, I can just see it now. Then again, I did see it when I was in RavenClaw two terms ago.

My how school has flown by.

Well off to find some moss for Chrysta as a room warming gift for her and then off to the green house for some daffodils for Violent.

Moving Sale

It looks like I am moving once again for the third time. I am off to HufflePuff this term, it appears that Lavender Ackerly disappeared just before term and can not be found.

My Uncle asked me if I would mind going there to help out and try to keep them in line. I do not think I will have as much work to do with HP as with S. Even as Prefect last term, it was alot of work. But they are a great group of girls and I will miss them.

So, now I am off to meet some new students and get to know the familiar faces better.
