The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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!

I'm making cupcakes in my new microwave. They turn out just fine, except they aren't browned on top...which isn't a problem because these are cinnamon crumb cakes and have a brown crumb topping!

They take 2 minutes to bake! And the kitchen doesn't heat up!

Well, I bought one of those Anchor Hocking Microware cupcake pans at the thrift store a long time ago. It didn't even fit in my little microwave!

They don't look as nice as oven-baked, not as tall and not brown. But the texture is just about the same and I suspect if I didn't say anything and just frosted them, no one could tell the difference.

And my jedis don't care what they look like anyways. Ha ha!!

Well, it's based on a true story. Wife and I talked about writing this years ago. Not sure I can say too much online 'cause there ~might~ be freepers who would recognize the story. I need to think it thru to make sure it's different enough.

Are we gonna have another chat option during this thing? I could share the plot then.
