"What on earth is that monstrosity?" Draco asked.

"It's a Yule log," answered Hermione, looking a little hurt. Ron darted Draco a scathing look.

"What the hell is a Yule log?" he continued.

"It's a log cake," Harry explained impatiently, but much more nicely that Ron would have, he was sure.

"Who would want to eat a log?" Draco asked incredulously.

"Er ..." Harry suppressed his laughter. "It's actually just cake in the shape of a log, which is traditional to serve at Christmas."

"It's covered in whipped cream," Draco observed and winked at Harry. "Where can we get one?"

I loved the last line. Thanks!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

I'm a whipped cream-aholic, so any time I can get that in there ... heh. ;)

[lire-casander.livejournal.com]

LOL at your last line!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! Whipped cream is my biggest weakness. Yum!

[inamac.livejournal.com]

I like the way Draco's thinking!

That was whipped cream and chocolate butter icing, wasn't it? With a robin on top?

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee!

Nope, just pure whipped cream! I just saw one in the store the other day, and drool threatened to run down my face! I'm such a sucker for whipped cream!

Poor Draco, having to deal with Half-Bloods and Muggles...

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*giggles*

[felaine.livejournal.com]

See, Draco can adapt to new customs when properly motivated.

Favorite line:
"Who would want to eat a log?" Draco asked incredulously.

Good work.

And what better motivation is there besides whipped cream?

[kaykayen.livejournal.com]

Draco can't ever resist whipped cream!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! Neither can I! ;)

[gurliemoviegeek.livejournal.com]

Draco, Draco, Draco...
You know I love you for the way your mind works, right?
Well, that's one of the reasons...

Thanks for the giggles this morning, you whipped-cream-aholic!

:D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! Definitely only one of the reasons we love him.

You're welcome. I just had the last of our whipped cream in my coffee last night. *pouts* Whatever shall I do??? ;)

[accioscar.livejournal.com]

*giggles at Draco* (shhh! Don't tell him I laughed at him)

Great drabble hon! :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

I won't say a word. And thanks. :D

[winter-june.livejournal.com]

And the greatest thing about whipped cream: it goes with everything *ponders if Draco is following this line of thought, too*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Yup, he's thinking the same thing. *nods*

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

What?! We don't have Yule Logs here in Australia! *weeps*

(I've never actually heard of it either. :/)

From Draco's questions, it sounds huge too. No fair, I want one... *pouts*

Heheh, cute drabble though, Draco being confused is adorable. :D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Truth be told, I wasn't sure what it was either, though I thought about it being a 'log cake' ... then I saw one in the store absolutely coated in whipped cream, all fluffy and wild to look like snow. *was quite excited*

They aren't that big, really, but I suppose they could come in a variety of sizes. The 'log' just refers to the shape.

Thanks ♥

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

Oh, really - mountains of whipped cream snow? *is also excited*

...

Canada, here I come. Log cakes, quake in fear!!

;D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'd send you one, but I suspect the whipped cream (really, the only reason for having it) wouldn't make the trip very well.

When I looked up yule log cakes on Google, they're all decorated to look like ... well, logs (I suppose that's the traditional way). Stupid if you ask me. I like the one in my local store, all slathered in whipped cream. Mmmmm.

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

Awwww... that's sweet of you. *cuddles*

Actually, you've given me the idea of googling "yule log" to see what they looked like - it came up with a bunch of, well, actual logs. :/

But "yule log cake whipped cream" worked well. :D

And they look so yummy! ^_^ Eat a slice for me, yeah? *g*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

I've never had one before, but I'm all about getting one this year! And yeah ... I might even have more than one slice for you.

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

Hee, yay! ^_^ Eat, my little monkey. :D

Seriously though, you enjoy it now. *cuddles*

[enchanted-jae.livejournal.com]

Draco is always thinking. Heh.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Mmm ... especially when whipped cream is involved. ;)

[svgurl.livejournal.com]

That's brilliant! I love love love the last line. Whipped cream is so yummy! :)

Draco's adorable ... thinking they were going to eat a log. LOL! I love him.

Thanks so much for writing and sharing. This totally brightened my night!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thanks.

[thrnbrooke.livejournal.com]

I sooo agree!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*grins* Whipped cream = ♥

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! He's channelling my obsession. ;) I mean, really ... is there anything better? Well, to eat anyway. Er ... well ... whatever. You get what I mean. *g*

[sassy-cissa.livejournal.com]

Leave it to Draco to think that! Very cute!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thanks.
