It's been a strange week here at the burrow. Things are hectic, but I did manage to find a few minutes to catch up with The Raven's Nest. That's when I saw it...I WON, WON. I NEVER WIN! Yippee for me! Can't wait to see what my prize is. Thanks so much! (doing happy dance).

Since we didn't have a Scavenger Hunt this round we decided it would be a good idea to post a picture of our favorite character. I actually have two -

Ron Weasley and Snape.




We also were asked about our favorite magical creatures. Well, this one is a little harder for me because I haven't become really attached to any of the creatures in the books. I do have an unbelieveable attachment to this fellow though.



That's Max the Dog in his Halloween costume a few years ago.

And just a quick update, the dinner party was a HUGE success. I put my guests in to a food coma! That cheesecake gets 'em every time!
