Very Belated Harry Potter Treats

The night of the Midnight Harry Potter release this year, I made a variety of sweets treats to celebrate the occasion: white chocolate peppermint toads with green pepermint buttercream filling, pumpkin pasties and gingerbread newt cookies. The newts were sort of a flop because I ran out of time, although I had success with them many years ago when I spenmt hours shaping them and brought them to a slumber party with my friends ( :

Platform 9 3/4

Today, I went to see Platform 9 3/4! It was a little less exciting than I had anticipated, only because nothing magical happened. When I first spotted it, though, I have to admit that I screamed really loudly, "there it is!!" and identified myself immediately as one of those loud, American tourists. I got a couple pictures, which I'll post when I can.
The fact that I can not post pictures is pretty frustrating, but hopefully I'll be able to fix that sometime soon.
I also got some really great Italian food and started the quest for a guitar! (the hsop was closed, but now I know where it is)
Quite rainy today. School tomorrow. Still searching for: boots, and an umbrella and a few more sweaters, since it's much colder than I expected!
