deathly hallows

How do you manage to do it? Once again, the latest Harry Potter will be released DURING baitcon (July 21). =)

Well, originally we'd planned for the last weekend of July, but then FRFF announced *their* schedule and people asked us to consider shifting. JB is probably happier - if I had a copy during Baitcon, I'd probably sit right down to read it and leave all my work undone. :)

I think we should have a Harry Potter party on Saturday night complete with cauldron cakes and pumpkin juice and ice creams flavored after various Bertie Botts beans. ;> Or least play some quidditch ...

Worked great for me last time. I bought one of the (read only once) books on the spot market right there. (and apparently ppl were reading it while I was sleeping later on) :3

Yup, and the latest movie is being release that week too. Is there a nearby theater? If the weather is bad we can all converge on the theater on Saturday night or something! Can you see their faces if 100+ people showed up that all know each other!

Hogwarts House Ice Cream Flavors?

Gabriel is in a state of distress over this but we told him to just deal. Maybe Baitcon needs to have special Hogwarts house ice cream flavors this year. I wonder what they would be. Suggestions?

"Oh dear, Earwax" came to mind.

Sulphur, maybe with a hint of lemon.

Pumpkin of course.

A salty ice cream labeled "Fluffy's drool"

Since there's been chicken Liver, an ice cream made from pureed snake would work thematically. A Snake Pate ice cream would be better than chunks.

I remember an interview with the Jelly Belly people where the CEO said they invented the Bertie's "Vomit" flavor by using a failed Pizza flavor with some added citric acid.

We could go a bit more conservative and make a "Philosopher's Stone" ice cream, made from a decent vanilla containing some of those chocolate candies made to look like little rocks.

Wasn't Unicorn blood supposed to be silver in color?

We could also take a nice, golden Lemon and label it "Luck Ice Cream"

Whatever happened to the idea that you came up with (that I'm thinking you might be holding back as an ace in the hole since you didn't mention it)?

Not sure which idea you're referring to.

Right, that idea. Oh yes indeed.
