be very very quiet...I am hunting for horcruxes..

I love the theme of this term at hogwarts. We are sending horcrux kits! I have so many fun ideas, and some rather creepy ones! I need to get some measurements from Cassandra and start working on the handmade item. It is very ambitious and I hope I can get it to turn out right. I am rather nervous after my last homemade item disaster (which I still have to finish the replacement for). So much to do, I think I need to see if I can get a time turner.

Let the games begin!!!

I got my super excellent kit yesterday when I came home from work for my dinner break. What a fabulous games kit. The first thing I saw when I opened the box was the cutest little crochet fox, made to look like my patronus.Battleship was a favorite game of mine as a kid and we will definately play it in the car this weekend when we go over the (Delaware)River and through the woods to granma's house. My son can't wait to play go fish and crazy eights and his old bedroom was decorated with Cars, so good call. The mini playing card set is sooo cute and they will fit nicely in my purse :) The yarn, THE YARN is so beatiful. I have the hardest time finding good purple sock yarn and this is self striping too, my favorite. My husband keeps laughing at me everytime I pass the yarn I have to pet it. There are no pictures of the coffee or the dove chocolates. I have already started drinking the organic coffee (which is yummy) and my husband took the chocolates with him to work. My son immediately went to work on the bertie bots but he stopped after he hit a cheese flavored bean!
Now I know the stickers were meant for scrapbooking, but I found a much better use for them, and this way I can see them everyday. I put them on the dashboard of my Beetle. The pictures are below but please ignore how badly my car needs to be cleaned!

Thank You Poppy so much for this really awsome games kit!!!!



by the way...ewww I just had a pizza flavored jelly bean. Ick

ooops behind on posting

Things have been busy over here. The ministry has switched me over to 2nd shift and my days and nights are all confused. The blocking stage of my handmade project did not come out as I had hoped and some of the felting was also not as desired. I am not trying to fix and redesign in order to get my owl out the door with the kit tomorrow. I have the whole day to work on it, I just hope I can get it to something I am happy with giving to Poppy. I think this project might have been a bit over ambitious for a 5 week swap, but then that is how I roll :)

yippeee!!!

My super secret mission has been a success. I have aquired the item in question that I was so worried I couldn't find. This should help make Poppy's kit extra special. I am having so much fun at summer camp. These kits are so much fun.

The Kit is in the works

I am definately feeling the pressure of a shorter timeling for this summer camp, however I have so many ideas for Poppy's kit. I think I have all the handmade items planned out. I need to go shopping and see what I can find in hogsmeade for the rest. There is one item I know I am going to need, but I think it is going to be difficult. Luckily I enjoy a challenge and it will be my mission to try and procure this item! I won't tell you what it is, but I will update you on my progress.

My biggest worry about summer camp is that HSKS 12 will need to be a weight loss camp after all the s'mores and butter beers :) Life is good in the bungalow.

Summer fun

I just signed up for Hogwarts summer camp. I had so much fun last term I just couldn't help myself. I have settled into the Black Lake Bungalow and have been haveing a great time drinking butterbeers and watching my bungelow mates play scrabble. The official start of camp is next week and I am looking forward to finding out who my spoilee is. My last spoiler showed me how fabulous a kit could be, so I definately need to step up my game.
