I don't mean to be a bother, but is there anyone here who is knowledgeable about domestic magic and might be able to advise me?

I need a spell to get ink stains out of clothing. I've been getting by with an all-purpose dirt repelling charm, but it's not designed for this sort of problem.

In a not entirely unrelated matter, does anyone have experience with raising magical children? If you do, and you're not the sort of person from the future who thinks it is good or natural for children to be rude and hate their elders, I would like to ask you a few questions in private.

	Freshly-baked bread is marvellous, and it is far too long since I had a decent stew. I cannot say that I'd care to try worms, though. I like meat pies, or plum pudding, or roast chicken. It must be horrid not to be able to join in with the feast. Do you at least save some of the best food for yourself? I suppose I am rather hungry. Talk of food will do that.

	gummy worms are not actual worms, they are what people here call candy and they are very sweet. and aye, the cook gets the best treats, as is only right. i have fresh bread and stew here if you would like some. i am astrid (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ah. In the way that sugar mice are not real mice?

Pleased to make your acquaintance, Miss Astrid. My name is Black. Your offer is very kind, but if I could presume upon your hospitality - might I bring a little boy along? He is my nephew, and he is only seven, so he won't eat a great deal, and if you haven't much left then I'd rather he was the one of us to have a good meal.

	If I ever find sugar mice here, I will share them with you! And yes, I can fly over. It should not be too difficult to find. I shall bring a gift for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
