The Hobbit Hole XVIII - Though we pass them by today...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Though we pass them by today...
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! |

It's been froggy here for the past few weeks. Maybe I should get a sun lamp.
To: Overtaxed
Cool post#. I thought about getting one this year, but got sidetracked. Definately for next year.

Shipley's donuts are really good! Got one of those in my hometown; been there for a while. Krispy Kremes are too greasy for me. I like Dunkin Donuts, WAY too much! ;o)

Good morning!
Supposed to be ridiculously warm here - in the fifties! I'm wavering between being happy for the heat and depressed 'cause we've not had a real winter.
Because the office is a work in progress at home, my computer is disconnected. I may get it set up in the kitchen tonight...or may just leave it off for now so I don't have any excuses to distract me from decrapping / scrubbing. The kids got most of the old wall paper off yesterday! There are still a few patches, and then everything needs to be washed down and a lot of places need spackle, and then we can finally paint that room. Excellent!
Got around to watching more special features last night, since I was computerless...I'm once again amazed at all the dedication to detail that went into everything, even stuff we didn't necessarily see or notice. It's just amazing! Last night I watched the part about designing the sets.

But, if you haven't had them fresh and hot from the store, you haven't really had Krispy Kremes.When I was in college, I worked at Burger King, on the LATE shift. I was the only girl in the place who didn't have curfew cause I lived at home, not on campus. So there were weekend nights that I didn't get off until 3am. WHen I got off, I'd roll by the Old Tyme Donuts place down the highway to see if they had their donuts ready. Mmmm. NUTHIN like a fresh donut hot out of the grease! ;o) I'd usually get a dozen and bring them home for the family. They was pleased.

Rosie, I got a donut pan from the King Arthur Flour store! You mix them up and bake them, so they're not greasy at all! I've made Buttermilk and Blueberry ones. I'd like to try to make some Apple Cider Donuts.

Beignets are delicious, but are a pain to make! That's why I was thrilled when I found this donut pan so you can BAKE them instead of having to fry them.
Of course, nothing beats beignets and coffee at the Cafe du Monde in the French Quarter in New Orleans. ;o)

baked? That is crazy! Bearsign needs hot boiling oil. My favorite donuts are the family recipe but I have not had them in years. They take a bit of effort to make what with the big huge pot of hot boiling liquid and all.
To: SuziQ
Makes it simpler, anyway.
And the cats have now discovered they can get out all their toys again without fear of dogs taking 'em. They were going nuts last night!

I thought maybe you'd gone graphic designer on us, and were including some sort of slick folding brochure about the HH troop support effort. LOL
