ANT made the session memorable by trying her first ever
mince pie! It took much persuasion but she did take the leap of faith
eventually, trusting our very high opinion of this Christmas food classic...
sadly she was disappointed. Personally, I think it was a mistake admitting to
her that they contain raisins but at least she tried *sigh*!
After everyone else had finished their mince pies (someone
else finished ANT’s) I took the opportunity to make Raven claws out of the
casings. This was very entertaining for a while but they were a little
impractical. No one could complain though because they served their purpose in
keeping me occupied.
DisneyLoverMolly and Master were very nearly absent from
this final meeting but we couldn’t have been more thrilled when they said they
could stay. DisneyLoverMolly made us all laugh by trying to get noticed as she
walked to and from CWC in the hat from my Christmas cracker. Nobody commented
on it, or laughed, or even gave her a funny look. This left her concluding that
everyone (even the people who don’t know her) expects crazy behaviour from her!
Don’t worry though DisneyLoverMolly, we all love your quirky little ways :)
So to end the Christmas term, I have two Christmas-based
quotes for you all to enjoy. The first is inevitably from Harry Potter (and the
Order of the Phoenix)
to remind everyone what joy books can bring at Christmas – although Dumbledore
prefers socks:
Hermione: “‘Thanks for the book, Harry,’ she said happily.
‘I’ve been waiting for New Theory of Numerology for ages!’”
And the second is a Charles Dickens quote from ‘A Christmas
Carol’ which I think is a really interesting take on Christmas. Enjoy.
“For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better
than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child Himself.”
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
