Alas, earwax.


Feast your eyes on these my muggle chums, Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans! When my best friend Lauren presented me with these as a gift from Florida, I very nearly weed myself in excitement. I am both a Harry Potter, and a jelly bean enthusist, so this was the perfect present for me. Here's a photo of me trying to convey my excitement:

You can really sense my psychotic excitement can't you? :') As I was saying, my bestie chum Lauren has just returned from Florida, I can't even explain how much I missed her, it literally felt like half of me was missing, that's how important she is to me. After not seeing each other for two weeks, (and barely seeing each other for about 4 weeks before that!) it was rather an emotional affair, me, my boyfriend and our other friend Jonathan surprised her by coming over to her family party (it was her 18th yesterday, she flew back from Florida that night!), and as soon as she saw me she cried, which made me cry, which made everyone laugh at us! For her birthday, I bought her a teacup Pandora charm (which made her cry, then pnce she got over that, my card made me cry!)which fitted in very nicely with her other present off her sister, a gorgeous Alice in Wonderland tea set.

Anyway, back to the beans! I've only just cracked them open, and had 4 so far, I want to save them as much as possible! I've had what I can assume to be Cinnamon Pie, Lemon Drop, Chocolate Pudding and Bubblegum flavoured beans so far, no vomit or earwax flavoured ones so far! There are no flavours on the back like Jelly Belly beans, so you really have got no clue what you're getting and have to rely on your taste buds to tell you, I'm dreading getting a pepper or sardine flavoured ones like Harry and Ron did once!

Speaking of Harry Potter, have you all seen the new trailer? I'M SOO EXCITED! I can already tell they've made some mistakes and done scenes differently, but I'm still excited. I can't wait to see how they bring Sirius, Lily and James back to accompany Harry on his way to be killed by Voldemort (in case you haven't read it, he doesn't die for realz), I hope it's as beautiful as the way it's written in the book, but I doubt it will be, I'm also interested to see how the Battle of Hogwarts and breaking into Gringotts will be done.

Yes, that was an entire post about jelly beans. Thanks for reading till the end if you do haha!
Lots of love, Lottie xxx
P.S just had what I believe to be a custard flavoured bean!
