Roger,
I'm back in town. The museum looks fantastic. Thanks for finishing the floors while I was gone. I brought something back with me for you (and Jack). This is tequila -- not sure if you've ever heard of it before, but I wanted to get you something that was uniquely from the Americas. This is a liquor made, of all things, from a cactus. You get it in Mexico (well the best tequila comes from there). Yes, that IS a worm in the bottom. Yes, it IS supposed to be there. Really. Just trust me on that. 100% blue agave silver tequila. You'll need two other things to drink this properly. A lime and a salt shaker. Cut the lime into wedges, pour yourself a shot of the tequila, put some salt on the back of your thumb. Lick the salt, drink the tequila shot (in one go), then eat the lime. Do NOT mix this with anything. It's far too good for mixed drinks. ;>
Er ... don't eat the worm, 'kay? Also be careful. Tequila is pretty smooth, and it's easy to get dead drunk before you know you are.
Cheers,
Ced
Dear Katie,
I hope this finds you well. I'm back from Canada, and the museum appears to be ready to go finally, all but the paint. Much of that owes to you. May I take you to dinner (assuming George won't mind)?
Sincerely,
Cedric
Dear Blaise,
I have returned from my perambulations in the New World, and have a present for you. Given your recent interest in Muggle history, I picked up a few books about "explorers" while in the States. If you ever have an interest in exploring the Americas, let me know.
Sincerely,
Cedric

Lee,
I have returned! I wanted to bring you something, but had not a bloody clue what to get you, honestly. So I found something completely odd. Ha. This is a book about a MODERN illuminated version of the Bible -- the first one in ... damn, I don't know. You probably do. The Making of the St. John's Bible. I actually saw an art exhibit with this, a few years back now. It was ... amazing, the artwork. I also got you a print of the front piece to the Book of Pslams, just because I liked it.
Sincerely,
Cedric
Dear Ernie,
I'm back and I'm ready to meet with your boss at your convenience, about the museum. I'm also including a copy of a mini about the origin of the most famous Canadian Superhero of all time -- Wolverine, of course. Yeah, yeah, he's not DC.

Dear Maire,
You will find attached one Canadian moose.
Sincerely,
Cedric Diggory
(All are personally signed and addressed and have some variation on...)
I'm back in town. I hope your new year is well-begun. I'm including a little medicine wheel that was made by a friend of mine. There are protection charms on it.
With fondness,
Ced
