Chapter 2: Owls, O. W. L.'s and Olympia

Harry bustled about in the kitchen, adding eggs, chopping apples, dashing cinnamon, and doing everything else under the rainbow. Harry knew that the Dursleys would want their food quickly.

20 minutes later, Harry had produced baked pancakes, a specialty from the Atkins for Life dietary plan, since Dudley was still dieting.

Harry served the food to the Dursleys. Petunia and Vernon said nothing, while Dudley commented on how good it tasted. Harry knew that his aunt and uncle could find nothing wrong with it.

Just as Harry was finishing his baked pancake, an owl flew in through an open window.

It bore two letters. The first bore a seal that said Ordinary Wizarding Levels Committee of Education. Harry opened it
