The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

Rosie, you won't owe me a thing!

It was very serendipitous, I was looking for good KC blogs and found a link to a KC Siamese Rescue organization on one of the blogs, which got me thinking about your cats.
I do hope you are able to find good homes for them.

Evening Ruthie. LSA took Gypsygirl to the vets today for her shots.

Gypsygirl was a good patient. She got a bit of BBQ tonight and is now sleeping blissfully.

"If everybody's naked for dinner, who needs South Beach?"

As I posted on the thread, that's enough to put anyone off their dinner.

Looks pretty simple, especially with my Kitchen Aid mixer doing all the kneading! ;o)

Don't be ridiculous! I'm surprised you have any wattage left after being so sick!

Corin - When did you start referring to the War of Northern Aggression as the civilwar?

We spent some time on vacation in Savannah as well as Charleston some years back.. we enjoyed both cities quite a bit.

In any case, I think it's the most positive lead I've gotten yet!

The thread is up to 41 views now...no more responses yet, but maybe soon...

And I'll likely put them in that newsletter, too.

I'm really hoping this at least works for Cleo. I'm still almost hoping something will enable me to bring Halvah, though I got the lecture of a lifetime when I hinted that to family. They don't get it. Mom did...she was constantly sneaking kittens into the house. ;-) But the rest of 'em just don't.

I don't mind the kneading as much as the rolling out! Being as it's regular dough and very elastic, it takes a lot of work to get it to flatten out nicely.

But I'm pleased at how they turned out! I'll likely do those more often now that I know how.
