hu, roast turkeys; mountains of roast aoes;
platters of chipolatas; tureens of buttered peas, silver boats
of thick, rich gravy and berry saud stacks of wizard
crackers every few feet alohese fantastic party
fav like the feeble muggle ohe dursleys usually
bought, with their little plastid their flimsy paper hats
inside. harry pulled a wizard cracker with fred and it didnt just
ba off with a blast like a d ehem all
in a oke, while from the inside exploded a rear
admirals hat and several live, white mice. up at the high table,
dumbledore had sed his pointed wizards hat for a flowered
bo, and was g merrily at a joke professor flitwick had
just read him.
flaming christmas puddings followed the turkey. perearly
broke his teeth on a silver sickle embedded in his slice. harry
watched hagrid getting redder ahe face as he called
for more wine, finally kissing prall on the cheek,
who, to harrys amazement, giggled aop hat lopsided.
when harry fiable, he was laden down with a stack
of things out of the crag a paexplodable,
luminous balloons, a groarts kit, and his oizard
chess set. the white mice had disappeared and harry had a nasty
feeling they were going to end up as mrs. norriss christmas dinner.
harry and the ent a happy afternoon having a furious
snowball fight on the grounds. then, cold, ing for
breath, they returhe fire in the gryffindor ,
where harry broke in his by losiacularly to
roed he wouldnt have lost so badly if pert
tried to help him so much.
after a meal of turkey sandwiches, crumpets, trifle, and
christmas cake, everyooo full ao do much
before bed except sit and ercy chase fred and gee all
ryffindor tower because theyd stole badge.
it had been harrys best christmas day ever. yet something had
been nagging at the baind all day. not until he climbed
into bed was he free to think about it: the invisibility d
whoever had sent it.
