Hello!
As I promised in my last post I took a couple of photographs while at my Harry Potter weekend this weekend. If you cant tell from the picture I went as Nymphadora Tonks.

Someone else came dressed as Professor McGonagall, which looked fantastic, there was a Draco Malfoy and of course I had my Lupin with me.
We spent the night feasting on butterbeer, cauldron cakes, acid pops, chocolate frogs and Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans. The trip to the supermarket for some of the ingredients was interesting, we kept our costumes on and ended up being followed around by small children and getting strange looks from their parents. Muggles are adorable.
I have posted by recipe for butterbeer here but if you want any recipes for the other snacks feel free to leave me a comment telling me which one you want me to post for you. I will happily do so.
