Welcome to another fantastic term in The Den!
Classes and advanced studies are only part of the fun at Hogwarts. As a proud member of Hufflepuff House, you are invited to join in the following extracurricular activities.
Fall into Hufflecleaning 2012
For motivation on cleaning/decluttering/organizing goals of any size, check in with the Hufflecleaners for ideas and encouragement. Chellbelle has given us a list of helpful links at the top of the thread, too, including a Declutter Calendar. Check out the first post for badge options!
The Huffletheatre
Theresmiling is our movie hostess and she's selected Midnight in Paris for the first movie weekend, September 7-9. Check it out on imdb.com and see if you can locate a copy in time to chat about it next weekend. Please feel free to talk about whatever else you're watching, movies or TV, anytime.
HuffleLibrary
Whether you like your books with paper pages, backlit on computer devices, or read to you by someone with a lovely voice, we would love to hear from you in the Library. This term our "read-along" is focusing on the Harry Potter series so pick up the volume of your choice -- or the audiobooks -- and let's talk! We'll be doing a special craft-along during the term in cooperation with the Hufflepuff HECK thread, so stay tuned for more about that.
Spin a Yarn / Tangled Webs We Weave
Spinners and weavers are invited to pull up a chair in this thread and chat about latest projects, resources, goals, etc. All levels of experience are welcome! We love pretty pictures of fiber, spindles, wheels, spun yarn, looms, projects made out of handspun, so don't hesitate to show off your stuff. Kazpatch and yours truly, Marushka, provide virtual hand-holding and applause, as needed.
Hufflepuff Health & Fitness
You don't have to be a jock to hang out with us in the Hufflepuff Gym! If you’re looking to set goals -- and get support & encouragement --
related to health, fitness, nutrition, etc., this is the
place. Let us know if you want to get the weekly earburn reminder (on Sundays) to check in on your progress and/or to set a goal for the week ahead.
Give and Take
This is our wish list and giveaway thread. Clean out the unloved or unused supplies or tools from your craft area and post them here -- for a little postage, you'll make someone's day. Last term we had services as well as supplies being offered and accepted, including handmade socks and custom spinning. We haven't opened the Fall thread yet, but I'll let you know when we do.
Hufflepuff Games
Stay tuned for a shiny new games thread for the Fall term.

Activities Update: end of Summer.
Hi gang!
Your friendly Activities Hostess is moving on to bigger and brighter things (well, at least different things) so this will be my last HuffleBlog post for a while! I'm leaving you all in the capable hands of Marushka!
Term is over, but there are still a few more days to earn points in Quidditch!
Most of the Activity threads are still open, so feel free to stop in and chat about Books in the Library, Movies in the Theater, Spinning, Socking or Cleaning. The Gamers just started a photo scavenger hunt, so don't forget them! And there's a new thread for August to talk about Non-Ravelry Crafts!
Signing off,
