The Perfect Christmas by Afifa

Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: 'Christmas is forever, not for just one day, for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf. The good you do for others is good you do yourself...'
~Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas," 1976

A James/Lily one shot in which we meet a few children from a neighbouring orphanage, the Marauders, and, a special gift.

Written for the SPEW swap IV.

Great story! It is really a very nice idea.
However, for your readers' eyes sake, you should skip some lines between your story notes and the beginning of the story. It would make the beginning of the story more obvious.
Unless of course it is a problem due to the new layout... then i guess there's nothing you can do about it.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the nice review! And that's a good suggestion, although I suspect it is more due to the new layout. I thought there used to be a line separating the two, and there is in the Simplicity layout, so I'll add some breaks myself and be sure to pass on your suggestion to the mods! Thanks again for reading and leaving a review, I really appreciate it! ~Gina :)

Of Stilettos and Sporks by Sainyn Swiftfoot

Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: Rich, beautiful, and effective-- three words that describe Miss Zabini perfectly.

Or at least, that's what she'd tell you!

In her defence, she has planned hundreds of parties and dinners professionally, and they've all gone off without a hitch.

That is, until she had to plan that fateful Ministry dinner!

I looooooved it, I don't think I've ever laughed sooo much!!!!!
One thing that made me laugh, though sardonically I admit, was that after all these years you still think Blaise is a girl! Hahahahaha- sorry about that, must control myself... Did you even read HBP? I will say no more than chapter 7...

No, but seriously this is hilarious, I'm favoriting just to be able to read it again on days when I feel blue !!!

Author's Response: Wow, I'm glad you liked it, but I DO know that Zabini is male... This is supposed to be his mum. Which is why she strokes Kingsley's hand and things, to keep in with her personality of maniser (like womaniser... but only for men).

Thanks for the favouriting, and thanks for the review! I'm really glad you found it that funny. :D

But- I'm British! by Trivia Camlee

Rated: 1st-2nd Years •
Summary: A normal afternoon turns into a odd one for the Trio when a random boy shows up, a character who is convinced he is an authentic British lad. He is sadly mistaken.

Very funny!

Author's Response: Glad to hear it :)

How the Prince Stole Christmas by L A Moody

Rated: 1st-2nd Years •
Summary: Long before there was Severus Snape, children the world over enjoyed the antics of a different, green-faced sourpuss. In parody and tribute, a melding of the two just in time for the holidays. Wishing all the participants at Mugglenet a very merry Christmas.

SPOILER ALERT for anyone who is not aware of the true identity of the Half-Blood Prince.

~~Nominated for 2011 Quicksilver Quills, Best Humor Story~~

AMAZING!!!
Wow, I'm really impressed with the rhyme, and the story is quite funny too :)

Author's Response: I had great fun with this one, but it was challenging in a totally different way. Not to mention that the lame online rhyming dictionaries only compare spelling, not rhymes that are created by pronunciation. Had to do it the hard way from the get-go. Your recognition makes it all worthwhile!
