Another riddle from a ~~hungry~~ former Ravenclaw:

What's soft but ~~crunchy~~ hard, cold but ~~spicy~~ hot? ~~I need a lot of it. Access to the common room if it's edible.~~

	...the first thing that comes to my mind is a taco, but that doesn't make sense. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Taco could work. I guess if you don't heat up the meat it could be cold. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Waffles? I mean...they make waffle cones for ice cream, so those are cold and crunchy, but they also aren't actually waffles, so... But they'd be considered more 'luke warm' or 'room temperature' than cold, until you add the ice cream I guess, so that might not work either. Hm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	~~Ohmygodwaffles~~ Ice cream with hot sauce could technically solve it. Spicy could mean hot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wait. Does this riddle actually have an answer, or are you making all of this up as you go? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I...may be concocting an experiment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If Rowena Ravenclaw had made the door to her tower 'concoct experiments' rather than tell riddles, I might have spent a lot less time standing around outside balancing a tower of books in my arms. Anything I can do to help with this experiment from across the pond? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well, you've already proved that a true blue Ravenclaw can't resist a riddle! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	violetto_phat 2011-08-05 12:04 am UTC (link)
	We're also gluttons for information, which is why I'm so damn interested in what this experiment is and why you had to use trickery in order for your fellow Ravenclaws to help you out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Do you promise not to say a word to anyone, even your wife, even if Anneliese threatens your life? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yes! Not what I came to New York for, but then again maybe it was and I didn't know it! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's-...wow! Congratulations! I hadn't even been aware you'd met a bloke and now I'm finding out you're expecting! How far along are you? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dedalus advancingly 2011-08-05 01:08 am UTC (link)
	I know! Thank you! I mean, it's not serious just yet---well, no now it's serious, but it hadn't been serious before this surprise. His name's John and he's an architect. I'm--seven weeks tomorrow! He's due late March. It feels good to say that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

That's brilliant, Em. I'm so happy for you.

He! It's a boy! That's amazing! I mean, not that boys are better than girls - can't say that, what with me expecting a little one in the fall who is undoubtedly going to be female, but it's going to be a completely different experience than it was with Eric. The whole situation is a complete 180 from what it was when we first found out we were expecting a son.

Thank Merlin for that.

How is it that you and Doge always get me to revert back to rambling?

	I am so excited to hear about your adventures with Little Girl Diggle! Because you become comfortable and relaxed when around childhood friends, and it's just in your natural state to ramble on and on for ages! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

We started working on her nursery. It's very...pink. Hopefully I won't feel like I'm going to break her when I first hold her. I've been pretty alright with Gabriella.

I think. Anneliese would let me know, right? I'd rather hear it from her than her husband.

I absolutely love the fact that you just gave me a logical, reasonable explanation. I've missed you more than I realized.

	You'll be perfect with her! It'll be when she gets to Hogwarts and other boys start noticing her that we'll have the problem. Dedalus! Don't make the overly hormonal woman cry! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toooooooooo soft! But that is getting warmer. Or colder? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hm... OH! That kind of ice cream that has a chocolate layer on the outside! That can have hot sauce in it. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Taco salad! Is there an excess of lettuce...? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	madley 2011-08-05 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	I think you make it how you like, but it can be cold and spicy but also comes in a crunchy bowl shell you eat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	advancingly 2011-08-05 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think I've ever seen one! But I have seen some crazy food stands over here, I'll now be on the lookout for a taco salad cart. (Reply to this)(Parent)
