The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

Heh!! I wish I could send everyone a pumpkin bread...I used to send cookies, you know.

Sigh...

Someday I'll have more money!

I feel bad for him.

Eh - She probably smelled like wet dog all the time :~D

And maybe he's no picnic either :~D

But I'm sure he'll appreciate the bread. :~D

That's okay. The trainer wouldn't let me eat it anyway.

That said, he told me I didn't have to write down my foods for Thanksgiving Day. I got a lotta time to make up.

We'll be at my mom's. Thanksgiving Dinner will include (but not be limited to) mashed potatoes, sweet potato souffle, macaroni and cheese and corn. That ~almost~ covers her starch requirements.

They were offered. You rejected them on principle. :~D

I remember getting cookies from you.... they looked pretty but when I tried to eat them they left shards of silvery plastic in my mouth. ;-)

I'm so confused. I thought 2J had a different cookie recipe. Oh well, I did come rather late to the party...

(we had cookies at dwarf-moot, g'nad's got no principles)

You're right...I did send cookies to some of the girls. Both kinds, I believe!

I sent the edible kind to Hair, OT and Rosie.

This is where people who only lurk casually are totally lost.

I've been here three years and feel that way on many occasions.
