Greetings, my fellow students. I would apologize for the recent absence of journal entries on my part but I don't presume anyone actually ever wants to hear any of my garrulous ramblings, and it seems likely that my notorious loquacity of late in your comments more than makes up for the lack of posts

That Does Appear To Be A Very
Um
Interesting Cake
Can You Perhaps Describe It In A More Detailed Manner So We Can Fully Grasp The Extent Of Your Mothers Baking Skills

[grimdarklight]

There isn't really much to describe, other than a several-tiered cake with the marzipan sculpture of a princess with tentacle arms and squid head.

She tends to buy pre-mixed potioning ingredients and customizes them as her baking skills are in actuality sub-par. I believe she is often far too intoxicated to know what she's really doing.

I See
Am I Correct To Assume That The Marzipan Sculpture Was Very Detailed And Somewhat Aesthetically Pleasing Or Would I Be Wrong For Thinking Such A Thing

How Unfortunate
Your Mothers Frequent Intoxication I Mean Not Her Apparent Lack Of Baking Skills

Indeed, it was expensive and well-crafted; I suspect she commissioned it from a well-known wizarding pastry chef, as she was capable of dancing on the cake's tiers before the spell wore off.

I got used to the intoxication, to be honest. It seems to be her default state and she functions in society regardless. I'm not sure if that's down to her skill or the general eccentricity of our community.

That Sounds Both Entertaining And Amusing To Watch
Did You Take Any Photographs Of It

Perhaps Both
Have You Considered Exchanging All Of Her Alcoholic Beverages For Non Alcoholic Beverages To Teach Her A Lesson Of Sorts Or Just To Demonstrate How Much Her Constant Inebriation Displeases You

If I were to dig very deep into my files I may be able to uncover some previous documentation - I don't tend to keep many mementos of my mother's ploys, unless they can be used against her.

Yes, it seemed like a good idea at the time but it resulted in the terrifying discovery that her sober disposition is far worse. I don't think I'll be making that mistake again.
