After that, you need food.
Hello?
Um. I, um. Well, okay. I sorta borrowed the 5 first books of the Harry Potter series from my (9-year-old) little sister.
The first four was devoured in three days. Then I got stuck with number five, probably because I'd just seen the movie.
But then, um. The 6th. was available from the library. And. Um. The last one was in the shops again.
So - ah. The last two days, I've been cooped up in the chair in the corner of our living room, only breaking loose when making tea (they have an awful lot of tea in those books, don't they?) and changing the candles and turning on lights.
And now. I read them. All of them.
Forgive me. But. Um. Does anyone around here carry wands?
No?
Any snakes? Scars? Robes?
Okey-dokey.
Just checking if I really AM back in the real world...
I'm hungry.
Don't you just love vacations?
Promise, I will be back - with food - soon!;-)

Would you believe I found a recipe for butter beer on the net?!
It's my first time here.I am not a big fan of Harry Potter though my hubby is absolutley crazy and just can't get enough! We were at Barnes & Noble the other day to pick up a few books when he came across a copy of the latest Harry Potter.He just sat down & read the entire thing. We were there for almost 5 hours and ended up spending more money in the Starbucks cafe there than we would have if we'd just bought the book in the first place!
you sound like you have had a great holiday reading,perfect!!
I have added you to my blogroll at pennypincherpanty.wordpress.com. in the uk. I have just started my food blog and have got great inspiration from yours :)
Wendy - I never thought I'd read them, either, like, "they're childrens books", but somehow, they grabbed me. And I'm glad it didn't happen until now, 'cause I would have hated to have had to wait for the next one, and the next one, and...
Jennie - LOL! Butter beer? I'm sorry, but even though the Danish translation is ingefærøl, I think I'd like that better...
Pragyan - thank you! I did enjoy it!
TBC - well, you can't sit around the bookstore reading like that around here, but I can definitely relate to the feeling of not. being. able. to. put. book. down. I love that feeling!
Anon - Thank you! I can't seem to make your link work, though - could you try putting it up again?
