Not official merchandise, but I still consider it part of my Harry Potter 
stuff:

1. Stick that I refer to as my wand;
2. 3 owls (2 enamel and silver and one blown glass) whom I have named Hedwig 
(the glass one) and Erroll and Pigwidgeon (the silver and enamel ones) who 
live on a silver plate I call my owlry.

I gave my boss a quill pen for Christmas, and now I am envious of him.  I 
believe I will have to acquire one myself.

On a somewhat (but not totally) different note -- 

I visited my sister in Connecticut this Christmas (Jim - she works on Wall 
Street *and* lives in Greenwich and she is the most Slytherinish Slytherin 
I've ever met!!).  On Christmas Eve we took the train into NYC to see the 
tree at Rockefeller Center, etc.  The highlight of our trip, for me at least, 
was a visit to the Warner Bros. store.  There were huge HP banners on the 
upper stories of the building and a wonderful window display on the street 
level.  I picked up my photos of them this afternoon and they turned out 
beautifully!  I am one very happy camper right now!

I bought my Gryffindor t-shirt and large mug while we were there (at the WB 
store).  My sister bought a Nimbus 2000 t-shirt, a quidditch cap and the 
trivia game.  Next morning I had a package from Santa -- guess what it was?!  
;)

Having a Slytherin sister is *not* a bad thing! 

Love & Light,
*Elizabeth*
