Harry Potter

One of my coworkers is planning a Harry Potter party for his girlfriend's birthday. And I'm not talking about a simple 'let's wear a Gryffindor scarf and play a Harry Potter drinking game' kind of party. Not that those parties are necessarily bad... But he is planning a full on HP party.  

They're making chocolate frogs and butterbeer from scratch (thank you Pinterest for your wealth of knowledge on magical food by the way).  They ordered house banners from Amazon (only Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff were available. Shocking right?  My coworker [lets call him Ron for the rest of the blog shall we?] Ron was displeased with those choices for banners because he believes them to be the lesser of the houses. Never the less... Those were the banners he got.  Oh the sacrifices we will make for our loved ones... Like compromising on Hogwarts house banners.)

Anywho, that was an extremely long inner monologue on my part. Sorry. Back to the story. So they got banners and Ron scoured the online kingdom for a complete Harry Potter scene it that wasn't going to cost him $90. (They're discontinued so finding them cheap is not simple). He found one! And at this point that is all I know of their Harry Potter festivities but to say I'm jealous would be an understatement. I mean... That is just plain awesome. It does not matter that we are all adults and have full time jobs and have to pay bills and do other boring monotonous things. Harry Potter is for all ages! I told him to take so enough pictures that he could fill three scrapbooks with.

One day I will throw an epic party like this. It could have been my wedding... But alas we went with a different kind of magical theme. I think our choice will go over better with the grandparents. 

That is all for now! Have a magical Thursday!
