I read in the HP Lexicon website about how Arabella
Figg might be responsible for watching over Harry
while he's at the Dursley's, and there was evidence
given for her being a witch, rather than a Muggle.
Something else I noticed about her is her association
with cabbage: we're told her house smells of cabbage
whenever Harry stays there. Cabbage seems to be
associated with the magic world. The Polyjuice Potion
tastes of over-cooked cabbage, and IIRC, Snape's
dungeon smells like cabbage, too. Is this more
evidence that Mrs. Figg is no ordinary Muggle. Forgive
me if this has been brought up before. I did search
the archive and didn't see this mentioned.
