Holiday Bookmark Exchange

On Saturday I was visited by an owl all the way from California, braving the Winter cold of Western New York to deliver a package from Bevin Rae Mooney. It was my Holiday Bookmark Exchange package! Bevin's owl rested for a bit before taking off, it was a good thing he didn't linger as we were hit with a Lake Effect Storm on Sunday. The muggles closed down their airport and highway due to the storm.

Bevin sent me 2 linen bookmarks which she designed, along with some yummy chocolates!

She even made some personalized note cards for Uncle Vincenzio. He sends his thanks to Bevin as well.

Thanks again and I hope everyone has a very happy holiday.

R.A.O.K.! Random Act Of Kaae

This past week I received an owl all the way from Denmark. I had thought I was receiving my Hufflepuff Cracker Exchange very early, but when I opened it I saw a R.A.O.K. from our favorite Hufflepuff Dane, Kaae.

Inside was a skein of Opal sock yarn, a bag of sweets, a Badger coin purse and her very own design... the Mr. Weasley's Knotty Tie. Thanks again Kaae, it's all pretty awesome.

I'll be passing on a R.A.O.K. of my own, which I've decided to keep in house. So a certain Puff will be getting something once Artimus returns from his delivery to Electra the Enchanting. I wonder who it will be???? Don't you???? ::grins::

Hufflepuff Quiz #7

Better late than never I always say...

Working with Uncle Vincenzio, part 2

Thursday evening I went with uncle Vincenzio to the monthly Knitters Guild meeting. They were holding their annual Vendor's Night and Potluck Supper, so his shoppe was invited there as a vendor. We brought all the color transfigured sock yarn that we have been working on. My work was very well received and many of the ladies purchased transfigured sock wool from me.

Uncle Vincenzio and I will be teaching a class on Color Transfiguration in December, so the ladies who have registered for the class were very excited to see what they will be learning. The class is already filled and we will probably be teaching a 2nd class some time in February. Another shoppe owner, who has her shoppe in Hogsmeade, asked if we would come teach our Color Transfiguration class at her shoppe next summer. So we will be looking into doing that.

Not only did we do well in sales, but the dinner was awesome. There was so much food you would think the Hogwarts kitchen elves were there. Uncle Vincenzio joked that the ladies of the guild all bring enough food to each feed an army! I was stuffed! But everything was SO good!

Humperdink Has Landed!

I was helping out at Uncle Vincenzio's shoppe this afternoon when a grande old owl named Humperdink arrived bearing a package for yours truly from Fiera Firenze. Once I had removed the package that was tied to his legs, Humperdink was smothered with attention by Grammie Weasley. She made sure he was well fed and rested after his long journey. He and my owl Artimus seemed to get on famously. But now for my package!!!!

All the bits and bobs for magical fiber transfiguration. I've never had my hand at the Harmony wands, so I'm looking forward to that. Grammie says you can never have enough magic measuring sticks, she believes that evil fiber faeries disapparate them while we sleep.

Some Hufflepuff pride for my dorm room. And a fibery friend for my owl Artimus.

An awesome collections a Fiber Spells all in one book! No more assortment of parchment scraps to shift through.

A couple of Owl Dish cloths. The yellow and black is Shadow Knitting, which the muggle ladies at Uncle Vincenzio's shoppe call "magical." LOL! You ca nsee it better in the sideways picture.

I'm not real big on the dangly markers and such. So Fiera found some fun buttons and stickers.

I think cousin Ron will be amused by these.

Last, and certainly not least... a magical mug that reveals a secret message when a hot beverage is poured into it.
Many thanks to my spoiler Fiera Firenze for a great kit!

Hufflepuff Quiz #4 - Part 2

Professor Remus Lupin was having a terrible morning, and it wasn't even breakfast yet. Someone broke into the Muggle Studies classroom the night before, hid a Boggart in the closet, and set loose 613 doxies. How did he know there were 613 doxies? Because each one took a bite out of his elbow as he tried to capture it, and Madame Pomfrey had to sleep each wound separately. And comment annoyingly about how Professor Horace Slughorn would've had the room cleared out with 2 waves of a wand.

It took forever to get out of the infirmary, and by then Professor Remus Lupin was in a foul mood. Luckily, he knew how to improve it: by finding the culprits and making him, her or them pay. Remus Lupin had overheard some students giggling in the hallways the other day about Antonio dela Weasley's stash of doxy eggs, so he had a good idea of who to interrogate first. Unfortunately for him, but rather fortunately for Antonio dela Weasley, the common room password had recently been changed to Chudley Cannons, so Remus Lupin couldn't enter. The Pink Lady looked up from her portrait and laughed at the cursing, frustrated Professor.

The old Professor Remus Lupin would have thrown a hissy fit at being taunted by a mere portrait, and blasted the thing all the way into the 6th floor girl's bathroom. The new Professor Remus Lupin went to 14 weeks of Anger Management classes, punched a lot of pillows, and took up Basket Weaving. And started subscribing to the Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes catalogue.

Professor Remus Lupin's first class of the day was Muggle Studies with the 3rd year Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws. It took them 2 hours to clean up after the entire carton of Portable Swamps that went off and clung to their robes, schoolbooks, and any exposed flesh. The students all knew that Antonio dela Weasley was planning to do something in Muggle Studies to get Professor Remus Lupin, so everyone blamed him for the prank and gave him the cold shoulder for 17 days, until Ursula Longbottom blew up the Flying classroom with a misplaced charm and became the new pariah-of-the-hour.

New Professor????

This past weekend I was helping Uncle Vincenzio in his shoppe on Diagon Alley and there were rumours that a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor had already been hired to teach next term at Hogwarts. While this isn't all that surprising, given that there has been a new instructor every term, it seems that the thing that everyone was talking about was "who" was hired.

From what the ladies in the knitting circle had heard, the new D.A.D.A. professor will be the younger sister of a former D.A.D.A. professor Dolores Umbridge. Up to now she had been living quietly in the colonies. Now she had returned to Britain and seems even more bent on achieving power and control than her older sister had. It seems that everyone is concerned with what will happen with Sarah Umbridge in a position of authority.

Hufflepuff Quiz #2

1 Which is your favorite book in the series (and why)?
The Half Blood Prince; of course because of Dumbledore's claim of loving knitting patterns, Harry's private lessons and learning more about Tom Riddle, Fred and George being successful, proving that there was more to them than just a couple of jokesters, students learning more complicated magic (non-verbal spells).

2 If you were taking Owls, which class would you get an E in? Would you get any Ts?
Potions and Charms, I think I would do well in both of those. History of Magic, not so good. History has never been my strong suit.

3 Who is your favorite character (or characters) in the Harry Potter series?
The Weasley brothers: Ron because I relate to being the side-kick, Fred and George because they would always be a good time

4 If you had to pick 1 character for a roommate, who would you pick and why? Who'd be your least-favorite to have as a roommate?
Ron Weasley, he's a loyal friend. Least favorite would be Draco Malfoy, he seems like the spoiled rich kid who thinks he's better than everyone else.

5 Hufflepuffs are a hardworking bunch, but also a bit mischevious. Which Hogwarts professor would you most like to prank, and how would you do it?
Professor Snape, because I think he was very cruel to his students. I would put a charm on the class room that would cause the song "Disco Inferno" to be played every time someone light a fire under their cauldron.

6 Favorite DADA professor? (from the books, Lucius does NOT count :)
Professor Lupin, he really taught defensive magic.

7 Favorite magical creatures? (Also, if for example you like a certain creature in general, but not how they are represented in the HP canon, feel free to elaborate :)
I don't have a particular favorite magical creature. but I do like how they weren't protrayed as cute and cuddly because they were magic creatures. Many were dangerous, yet beautiful and yet there were fearsome creatures that could be tame and helpful.

8 What is your favorite food in the HP universe? Which food or foods would you like to try in real life? Do you have any recipes to share with us ;)?
chocolate frogs, because I love chocolate and it would be cool for a chocolate to leap like a frog before you could eat it. I used to collect bubblegum cards when I was younger too.

9 Broom, floo powder, portkey, or magic carpet?
While riding a broom would be cool, what do you do with it once you get there? Carry it over your shoulder. A portkey could be any small object that would instantly transport you. I could be something that you keep in your pocket.

10 Since we're Hufflepuffs... Yellow or Black?
I like the combination of the colors, plus variants of them as well such as gold, mustard and grey. Doesn't have to just be Canary Yellow and Coal Black.

An Angel Named Penelope

During HSKS5 I turned out to have the dreaded "Missing In Action" Owl. My spoiler had dutifully sent her package by Priority Owl, but it never arrived at the destination. I suspect the poor owl had been cunfunded as the Owl Post Information Center reported that owl could not deliver nor return the package. It sounds suspiciously like the work of dark wizards.

When it appeared that it was unlikely that this owl would ever turn up, Deputy Headmistress Wisteria Lovegood made sure that I would receive an Angel Package. Thanks to the lovely Penelope of Flitwick, from the Gryffindor house, I received my package today.

AND LOOK AT ALL I GOT!!!!!!


I see a big yellow satchel!


I'll have to keep my room-mates Draco and Rufus away from all those sweets

The Hufflepuff boy's dormitory will be smelling pretty sweet with the Lavender Reed Diffuser and the Aromatherapy Foam Bath Gels. There's also a set of KnitPicks Harmony DPNs and 2 skeins of Wildefoote sock yarn. I'm going to try out the Fred & George Not-So-Identical sock pattern with that!

Thanks again to Penelope and Wisteria for making sure I was not left out of HSKS5.

Hat Dueling - Round 1

It was a close battle, but in the end my dueling partner Arriana Stylos came out ahead. Both of our owls delivered today, but according to the Owl Post confirmation her package arrived 1 1/2 hours earlier than mine. We each got a hat that we love and she will be advancing to the next round. I'll be cheering her on, until she faces a fellow Hufflepuff that is.

This is the hat that I made for Arrianna

Close up of the stitches

Like several duelers, my first hat came out too small. I always go down a needle size when working with worsted weight. This came out small enough for a child's hat. It will go to the Knitting Guild's Charity Knitting

Both hats... see the size difference...

The hat I received from Arriana

Uncle Vincenzio Ricardo thinks he looks devilishly handsome in my new hat!

This turned out to be perfect timing as I traveled with Uncle Vincenzio this weekend to the states, New Hampshire to be exact, for the wedding of Fiona and Mijan Fawkes.

Dumbledore's Army!

I received my badge for the Dumbledore's Army part of Hogwarts Sock Kit Swap 5. I am considered an Outstanding swapper!

Thanks for all the compliments on the Hufflepuff socks. Haven't worn them yet, it's too hot for wool socks right now. I will wear them to the wedding I'm attending in September for 2 friends who are in the HP fandom. I wound up with about 38 gms of leftover sock yarn. I really think I could have made both socks with just the hand-painted yarn and been able to complete both. I use what is left on another pair of socks.

Lunch With the Ackerly's

Yesterday afternoon I had the chance to meet my spoilee Agatha Ackerly for lunch. She was traveling with her mum, Kataleena Ackerly and Agatha's young cousin Lucifer Scrimshaw. We had planned to meet at a pizzeria chain, which was a favorite of Lucifer's, but it was closed due to the Annual Independence Celebration of the Colonies. Fortunately there was a hoagie shoppe nearby that was open, although these American's refer to them as "subs."

Agatha's mum did some shopping with uncle Vincenzio in the muggle plaza while the 3 of us had lunch. We talked about our year at Hogwarts and our swapping experiences, although I couldn't tell her much about this one or it would ruin her surprise! I was also able to show Agatha some of the knitting techniques I've learned from the muggle ladies who visit uncle Vincenzio's shoppe. We both were quite amused that they call something "magic-loop" but it has no magic involved. LOL!

Agatha's cousin Lucifer is a brilliant young bloke who is fascinated by muggle gadgetry. Unlike most wizards though, he understands and can use it all! While Agatha and I were knitting he sat by the windows using his muggle "laptop computer." Before we all left he used what he called a "digital camera" to take a photo of Agatha and I. Agatha sent it to me by electronic owl.

I don't quite understand all this muggle "technology" myself, but it doesn't seem to have worked correctly. Young Lucifer only took a picture of Agatha and I, yet the picture is of Agatha's mum and my uncle Vincenzio. Something is not quite right with that. I'll have to ask the Muggle Studies instructor about this in our next class.

We are hoping to meet up again the next time Agatha comes to town.

Hufflepuff Socks Update

Just thought I would post an update on the Hufflepuff socks that I'm making with the sock yarn I received from HSKS4. As you can see, the first sock is completed.
I always make sure to cast on the second sock as soon as I finish the first one. It helps insure that a second sock is made.
I just finished the heel of the second sock and have started the gusset. I can't wait to have a finished pair so I can wear them!
