The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Growing up we rarely had sugary cereals. Grandma brought them when she visiting once every LONG while...mostly I remember her bringing Golden Grahams.

I got to the point where I'd refuse to eat oatmeal. Mom used to make it kinda thin, and it'd be slimy. Ick.

But I like oatmeal now!

Give me brown sugar-cinnamon pop tarts!!!

I actually used to like those...also back in my days in Germany. We had no chow hall and no kitchens, so I learned to like a lot of things you could do in the microwave. Those qualified. Cook 'em until they're a little crisp.

But I like real food better! I'm VERY happy to have a kitchen!

Okay ... was talking to a customer today who's located in Seattle. Told him I would be up there in a couple of days, and mentioned Gig Harbor.

I've been pronouncing it "Gig" --- as in, "buggy," as in the first sylabble of "giggle." But my customer pronounced it "Jig" --- as in "dance," as in "jiggle."

So which is it?

gaaak!...

He was prolly one of those kids who'd put sugar on corn flakes and Cheerios.

I had a friend who did that...I found it shocking! We just didn't DO stuff like that.

Yer customer ain't from 'round here.

It's Gig, like you said it, as is giggle. A "gig" is a type of boat, from whence came the name.

It's Gig! like the music job "got a gig"... Or a small rowboat called a "gig".

Your silly customer should get out of the city more... Bet they pronounce Puyallup wrong too.
