Oh the irony of them needing to remember how to make a Forgetfulness potion. lol
I can definitely understand why Harry is so frustrated with them not realizing that You-Know-Who is trying to come back. They've lived their lives either not knowing about him (Hermione) or believing he's dead (Ron).
I still don't quite get the riddle... lol
"Books! And cleverness! There are more important things -- friendship and bravery and -- oh Harry -- be careful!"

I didn't get the riddle either. So I had to look it up!

Oh, I did a presentation on the Discworld, the HP series and ASoIaF for English class last year and there was a quiz at the end to see who's been paying attention and Snape's puzzle was the last part of the quiz. I handed out sheets of paper with the puzzle itself and the last slide of the presentation was an image of the bottles. It was very HP-themed, 'cause I'd "sorted" the class into the four Houses by drawing names from the "Sorting hat". And, of course, the House which got the most points in the quiz got the House cup, which was basically a tall glass full of candy :D I'm so proud of that presentation. It was about an hour and a half long but everyone was paying attention 'cause of the quiz and... yeah, not to brag, but I've earned myself the reputation of someone who makes really cool presentations :D Needless to say, it took hours and hours of preparation and I was panicking I won't make it at the end. Totally worth it.
Wow wonderful idea Ria...I have to do this with my students.They will love it! And you should definitely brag...that was excellent! Well done!
