One of my first exchanges was the Harry Potter exchange a few years ago. It remained one of only a few exchanges that I was forgotten about and ended up with no gift at all. Needless to say, I was really nervous when it came back around. I’m a huge Harry Potter nerd and love pretty much anything to do with the Wizarding World so I can escape my boring Muggle lifestyle. So I was hoping I might have something to show for this exchange when it was all said and done, and my Potter Santa didn’t let me down!!!!

Not only did I get an actual gift this time, my presents came from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter itself! Straight from Hogwarts to me I received my very own Marauder’s Map jigsaw puzzle! I love puzzles so this was perfect. In fact, this may be one of the only puzzles I actually finish… all so I can hang it proudly in my home and show everyone what an awesome person my HP Santa is, along with showing off my own inner Hogwarts nerd! Ok, ok, yes it’s not really an “inner nerd” when you flaunt it, but my Santa’s gift definitely deserves to be flaunted every chance I get!!! On top of the hours of entertainment my Santa provided, I also received a fabulous Gryffindor bookmark! Now I can read all about Potter and his wacky friends, and when the Muggle world starts to harsh my mellow I can deal with reality and still pick right back up where I left off on the shenanigans of Harry and the gang (not to mention the twins!).

I love, love, love my presents Santa! Thank you so much for being awesome and not only feeding my nerddom, but sending me presents straight from Hogwarts itself! You rock, and I hope you have an epic Karmic return!!
