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!

Puffy's goose is cooked. So to speak.

She's a brute! I've had it with her. The other three get along just fine, but she just will not let Isabelle be! Poor Issy can't even go into the nestbox to lay an egg without Puffy running her out!

I've got her off feed...

I just can't get a break. Turns out the letter was sent out erroneously - there isn't an open position at this time. It was a computer glitch, more or less.

Probably will do a crock pot dish out of her. She's a menace and has been for a long time.

I'm too hungry to keep a chicken around that isn't a pet and isn't laying.

Heh.

I have her elevated on the picnic table benches confined to a cage. No feed only water.

we're going to call it...Microwaved Rubbish Rice Pudding.

LOL, I love it. You and your boys are just precious. Did I ever tell you how well my sourdough turned out? I percolated up a starter to take on the camping trip. We had sourdough biscuits and pancakes. Yumm yumm. Shame it's so fattening for me.

Have you got a license to shoot a fricasseeing chicken? Do yo know what the penalty is for shooting a fricasseeing chicken without a fricasseeing chicken license?

I know...I can't eat too much of it either and I can't keep it around or Steve will just gorge on it. So I only make it occasionally.

Funny think about this rice pudding is that it turned out to be nothing more than vanilla sweetened scrambled eggs with rice in it...Matthew, who won't touch a scrambled egg for nothin', just scarfed it down! LOL!

Ok!

I know some folks who would practically starve before they'd give up cable.

Er, that would be my sports-fanatic husband.
