Today is the birthday of a very special friend of mine!
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
mmadfanintroduced me to AD/MM, and basically, to the fandom. Resolving a Misunderstanding is my favorite story by her and was one of the first fanfics I ever read. It is the epic tale of how Albus and Minerva realized their love for one another, and it will forever remain in my heart as one of the best pieces of fanfiction I have ever read. Also, when I wanted to get posted to a validated site, she held my hand and never led me astray. To her, I am eternally grateful, and I hope she has a wonderful birthday and a fabulous year. I am including a video I made for one of my stories that she likes, and if she would like to leave me a prompt, I would love to write her a drabble/one-shot for her birthday. (Though that may take me a bit.)
Happy Birthday, dear, and many happy returns!!! :::Hugs::: ~~Stef =o)

At times it seems like yesterday. It is so hard to believe it was eight years ago that events, thought to tear our country apart, brought our nation together. I am saddened that so many people lost their lives that day, and my heart goes out to their families and loved ones. God bless all those who protect us everyday: from the fire department, the police department, and EMS, to the armed forces both at home and abroad, I thank you. I remember.

No, no! I said put the candles on the cake! ::face palm:: Well, I suppose that is what you get when you don't actually own a house elf. Sigh. Happy Birthday, anyway!

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me. My choice. For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
- What I create will be just for you.
- It'll be done this year.
- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be wood. Or a craft. Perhaps a picture. Something written. Or, I may bake something and mail it to you. With the included recipe of course. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure.
- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you have to put this in your journal as well. We all can make stuff!

Recently, I have done a few drabbles and posted a songfic on the CR board. It can be found here: Something the Prince Never Knew. This site is dedicated to Filius Flitwick and Pomona Sprout. There, we have also done a gift exchange, and this is one of my contributions to my lovely Secret Santa. Merry Christmas, Sprinks!!

After a little tweaking and worrying, A Tango for his Heart is up on TPP. You can be transported there by clicking the banner above. I do hope you like it. And yes, I know I goofed a little on the banner. Oh, well, it is late, and now it is time for bed.
I hope everyone is having a great evening, and perhaps enjoying an extra hour of sleep, like me. I am also anxiously awating the results of the voting on TPP. Good luck to everyone who entered. I know I enjoyed quite a few of the entries when I had time to look and/or read them.
Cheers,
Stef =o)

Well, after a little bit of a wait, I have a new Halloween fic up on TPP. It is very light-hearted and fun. It has the AD/MM pairing, but it is light. The story centers on Albus' desire to have the entire school involved in a pumpkin-carving contest, among other things, and doing it the Muggle way. To be taken to the story, just click the banner above. Quite a few characters are involved as well as a trip to a spirit store.
