Dear Liza,
This evening, Auntie Bridgett, Grandpa Nelson and I walked down to The Nerd Out, a fun, science fiction themed restaurant just down the block.
They were having a wonderful event called “Accio Books!”, which combines food, drink, trivia, and collecting books for schools. There was Butterbeer (both with and without alcohol) costumes, and lots of fun.
I dressed as Professor Trelawny because I have the round glasses and lots of scarves. We used the magic wands Auntie Christy made for us at Christmas. Auntie Bridgett dressed as a young Hogwarts’ student, and was adorable! Grandpa Nelson was a friendly Muggle.
There were to be two sets of trivia questions during the evening, NEWTS and OWLS. We played in the OWLS (Ordinary Wizarding Levels) and came in third! I would have liked to have won, of course, but it was fun. We enjoyed some roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon, and walked the block home.
Not bad for a Thursday!
Love,
Grandma Judy
