Happy Birthday, Harry Potter, you amazing and wonderful wizard.
You have taught all of us how to embrace our inner wizard and to avoid being a silly muggle.
Today is July 31st….AND IT’S A TUESDAY!
Why is that important?
Well, J.K. Rowling told her loyal fans that Harry’s birthday is the 31st, which is also her birthday. But, new the beginning of Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, it was said,
“…tomorrow, Tuesday, was Harry’s eleventh birthday”
This day is rare….and so special. SO YOU HAD BETTER PARTY LIKE YOU-KNOW-WHO IS DEAD!
The fact that it’s the birthday of The Boy Who Lives is the perfect excuse to get some amazing book-ish merch!

Happy birthday Harry Potter and JK Rowling! I have a plain black heat changing mug that when I add hot water shows the marauders map and the espresso Partronum mug. They are great.
Right?! I loveeeeeeeee Harry Potter merch! It’s so much fun!
Oooh, I love novelty coffee mugs! They’re so much fun.
I agree! I literally have so many mugs because of that xD
I cannot wrap my head around Harry being 31… In some ways, he’ll always be that little guy shopping for his first wand
Honestly, I know…..it’s so shocking that he’s so old. It makes me feel old too…
Guess what I bought today?! The paperback box set! B&N in honor of HP’s bday discounted all HP stuff 25%, plus you can still use an online coupon code (20%) – it was a no brainer!
Oh good. I’m glad you found a set you like!
OMG YES! I love it!
Yay more Harry Potter celebration! I don’t know about you, but I’m planning on eating cake tonight. 😊
Haha I had something like a cake. I may make a cake today now that I found a decent recipe 😀
I love those mugs!!
Thank you so much!!
Nope. He’s not 31. Not. At. All. Holy freaking cow.
Oh my gosh I know. It’s so painful!
I can’t believe that Harry is nearly as old as me – Apparently he was born on 31st July 1980 – So he’ll be 38 – WOW
Really? I did not actually know that he was born then! Fun facts!
