:) Thank you for writing this.

I've missed reading any Harry/Ginny. And your characterization of Ron was perfect.

Oh, please check back in the Drabble community for a new challenge in February.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I've been trying to force myself to write for 15 minutes/day, in the hopes of staving off the 2013-slump.

Oh, this just made me feel all warm and fuzzy! :) I ADORE the sweet proposal at the end. Great job!

[dukebrymin]

That's the part my wife giggled at the most too, thanks!

Lovely!
(although what we call stockings here in the US are called 'tights' over there /end nitpicky quibble)

[dukebrymin]

Thanks!

I expected to get twitted about cookies/biscuits, but no, you went for the less-well-known tights/stockings/nylons debate. Which, I confess, I did not know. Of course, even if I had, I probably wouldn't have done it differently, since that'd lose the Stockings correspondence I was going for.

Aww, that's darling. Well done!

I particularly like helpful!Molly, since so often in fanfic she's made out as the exact opposite.

[dukebrymin]

While I enjoy harridan!Molly sometimes, I do think she's done that way much too often. And I'm not sure I could write her like that, I've always liked her too much.

Quite an enjoyable story. I did like Harry's clever proposal there at the end.

[dukebrymin]

I was happy for a little bit of Harry-ingenuity there--it needed a good kick to end it.
