Sometimes, I worry for the education of little witches and wizards everywhere. Muggles have their primary schools where their little children can learn important skills such as reading, writing, and arithmatic. Wizarding children, however, are left to the devices of their parents, be it homeschooling, joint homeschooling with another wizarding family or two (or ten), or outsourcing the education process to tutors and nannies (and maybe the stray house-elf, which may or may not be a good idea depending on how the family has treated the elf). Perhaps if we had a better means of education for young witches and wizards they'd grow up to understand the meaning of "unspeakable." They might even understand the meaining of unspeakable in various contexts. I swear, they think it means "challenge my ability to keep a secret and keep testing my patience to see if I'll hex you or not."

They might also learn how to make correct change. Next time that twat dolt imbecile bloke is working the till at the market, I'll just make do with takeaway for the weekend.

In other news, I think these kittens are defective.

On a slightly related note, I'm excited to try a new recipe.
