[livejournal.com profile] bowdlerized sent me tasty cookies! And the recipe! And Bazooka gum with labels in Hebrew! And wee origami stars! Such happiness.

First, I have to show you guys this, from the card:



Which will be added to my growing collection of cards with Scabbers drawings. You'd almost think I'd developed some sort of reputation... And:



This is very cool, but alas, I cannot read it. Anyone care to help?

Bow is my hero. What did I do to deserve such friends? *hugs fandom*


Also, GIP. My newest fad. The art is by the talented [livejournal.com profile] appleviking, used with permission. The much cooler original is here.

It is my conversations with [livejournal.com profile] chresimos that have made me increasingly aware of the excellence of Barty. He's the only reason I'm managing to get through GoF.

Man, don't be all down on GoF! Sure it doesn't make sense, but think of it this way.... It's like a bunch of random episodes of the TV show that is Harry Potter. All the little chapters and plotlines don't really have anything to do with anything else, but they're fun, they're entertaining, and they just provide more detail about the world and the characters Rowling deals with.

Again with the essay - it made me think of GoF in terms of themes. Especially the theme of volition - the Crouches, the house elves, the Unforgiveables... Veritaserum. .....mmMMmmm veritaserum.... The nightgown scene.

Right. What was I saying? >:}

Ahhh, Gof... So bloody random.

Really, GoF is all about two words:

Pyjama. Party.

That's all I can say.
