Best HP gift

[Amanda Geist]

Okay, this was the best. The absolute best.

There was a package for me, a purple one, under our tree. Jan got his stuff
wrapped and under there last night, and I only saw it today as I was
refereeing the unwrapping melee. It was labeled "The Leaky Cauldron." Hm.

And when I got a turn to unwrap, I was handed this package. And I opened it.
To find an extra-deep, three-footed....


ready?



heavy-duty, stainless steel....





*COLANDER.*


Leaky cauldron indeed..! It *looks* like a cauldron, it really does, I have
no idea where he found it, and there I am absolutely *dying* on the couch,
and Jan over there with one of those rare little elfin smiles he gets.

I will never be able to look at this without laughing. And we *did* need
one, in fact, I'd been using one of my mother's that is, I think, older than
I am, missing one handle and the other very loose.

That may even beat the Knight Bus lego set that my daughter gave me.
