The Hobbit Hole XVII - A new road or a secret gate...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 11/03/2004 6:16:42 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

A new road or a secret gate...

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!

By order of the Better Looking Dwarf, all talk of dieting is hereby suspended until the Christmas season is officially over.

And that would be January 6.

Carry on.

~sigh~

Just this morning I had all the "powers that be" sign off on a document before I sent it out for final Bored approval.

I just go an email saying "if this is okay with the head troll, Corin should send this to the Bored."

It's a different version...

idjits. all of 'em

Good Lord.

Well, your day is almost over with, right? Mondays after a holiday are always a bummer.

Yeah, day's almost over. Today's been bad because Rasputin is back from vacation. Not that he ever really "left" I got emails from him all last week.

We're almost done too...Joshua is already done, Matthew is taking a break before doing his spelling, he likes to watch Arthur. He'll be done after spelling.

But I have to lose a little before Christmas, or the holiday pounds will make me go up a size, and I can't have that...

Natural peanut butter in small doses works for me! I'll eat some off a spoon sometimes as a snack...not a lot, but it doesn't take a lot.

Heh...forgot to tell y'all what Luke said the other day.

He's been asking lots of questions about Papa and other folks we've talked about "where's your grandpa?" "where's your daddy?" etc.

He doesn't like where his car seat is in the truck 'cause he has to climb over the seat to get there, so the other day he said.

"When Jr. goes to heaven, move my car seat over here..."

Yes sir!

Seriesly, though...I'm going to try to be strict for about three weeks before Christmas. But then...I don't have a single party to go to, so it's probably different for me than for most folks.

I'm partly just worried already about the wedding. It ain't until April, but...I have a dress I gotta fit into, and that means losing two or three pounds or in any case not gaining.

And that's all I'll say on the subject! I'll be good from now on...

I'm sorry, you may lose, but not talk about it.

If you break the rules again, we'll send you off to Took's Corner with a plate of fudge.

Do they ad oil to it or just the peanut oil? The almond paste I make is too thick so I add the canola. Canola and olive oils actually boost your good cholesterol. Vegetable, soybean and other oils help lower your bad cholesterol, but also lower your good.

I love talking about fats! Imagine my relief when I found out there was a fat I COULD eat!

The natural stuff just has peanut oil - when you get it it's separated on the top and you have to stir it in. After it's stirred in good I refrigerate the peanut butter so it doesn't separate again. It's really good!

Oh no!!! ROFLOL!!

Joshua always is asking me these hypothetical questions and saying "Who knows? I don't know...only God knows." He says it just like that every time. It's a hoot.

AAACK!!

I just had to field a call from the head troll's boss.

No one was here that could give a real answer...so I made one up.
