Also, when riding in a muggle friend's auto, their air conditioning blows directly on my arms which causes discomfort and chills (thank Merlin we have climate spells to control room temperatures!)

To keep my arms warm, I crocheted these [Josephine Gauntlets](pattern)

HPKCHC Potions Assignment July 2009

Salazar Slytherin's Locket was originally owned by Salazar Slytherin and became an heirloom of his family. It was a locket of heavy gold with a serpentine S in glittery green stone inlay on the front.

In 1997, Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter ventured to the seaside cave where Voldemort had hidden his locket. They were fairly certain that a Horcrux was hidden in the cave. Through great personal injury, Dumbledore successfully retrieved the fake locket Black and Kreacher had
left.
