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!

My mother had good luck with a system called "Make-a-Mix cookery." She had mixes for everything stashed everywhere in the kithcen. I don't know if the title is still in print, though.

The easiest way is to freeze them individually by putting them on a cookie sheet for a while in the freezer, then breaking them into individual chops and sticking them in a bag (I use an old bread bag) then storing them that way in the freezer. Then you just take out an individual chop and cook it, I use my little George Foreman grill...I just stick it solid frozen on the grill and cook it till it's done (the sizzling stops being so loud.)

Yup, still in print. It's a classic: Make-a-mix

Hey - you did that...

If you listened to me, you wouldn't even know any of those poster's names, 'cept maybe ksen.

Would it help if I forbid you from doing it again?

Hehehe....they had croissants.

Had to scope a seat in the front of the room 'cuz the manager set up in the back. *Sigh*

Then the person who was supposed to take the minutes was out sick and I had to do it....so much for sleeping through the thing.

I shoulda come and taken minutes. This cataract surgery did not go as well as the first one. When the fake lens was implanted it tore the membrane in the eye, not sure what happened after that, they gave me another shot of medication. I came home and did some googling, didn't like what I was reading. Will have to wait until tonight for the "great unveiling". Think I'll go take a nap.

Prayers for a swift and full recovery.

OT--yeah :-(

HOTD--Thanks! I really am going to take a nap now. Can't do anything about the Shuma situation. It is just so "un-midwestern" it has really struck a nerve. Best thing would be to put the dog in a room with both sets of owners and see who she goes to.
