The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I shoulda kept my mouth shut... ;-)

Corin, no one reads the manual. Well of course they don't. The manual is for trouble-shooting. If he gives me anymore trouble...
He figured out the basics on his own. But when he wants a special effect or he gets a trouble signal, he needs to look it up, 'cause I don't know what to tell him.

Why does it seem that the quest for discovering the true nature of
lembas will never be fulfilled?
*sigh*
Let's talk about shubbery again. It's definitely more fun! :)

On the other hand, it might be like a thick lefse...
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
Not crisp enough.
To: Corin Stormhands
Have you read the manual for Junior? ;~D
To: RosieCotton
I don't think lembas is crisp, witnessing the way they bite into it in the movie. Didn't make a crunchy sound....
To: RosieCotton; rightwingreligiousfanatic
Lefse is crisp if you leave it out. like Krumkake.
To: RosieCotton
Not crisp enough. How do you bake a crisp cake without burning it?
To: Overtaxed
OT! Is that you whipping up your umpteenth experimental batch of lembas?
What conclusions are you coming to?
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
I don't think lembas is crisp, witnessing the way they bite into it in the movie. Didn't make a crunchy sound....Well it was crisp in the book, at least on the edges. Gimli bit off a "crisp corner".
To: HairOfTheDog
Mmmmmmmmmmmm! Krumkake!
To: RosieCotton
It was just stale.
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
I don't think lembas is crisp, witnessing the way they bite into it in the movie.According to the book it's crisp....at least at the corners.
To: RosieCotton
OK, so the corners get crisp after traveling a while. But the body must be more chewy....
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
What conclusions are you coming to?Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside.....fried Twinkies?
To: Overtaxed
Thin cornbread is crisp at the corners.
To: Overtaxed
How do you bake a crisp cake without burning it?I think this has something to do with the definition of the word "cake". It doesn't have to mean what we usually mean here in the states when we hear the word.

We went with this one:
Jr. was once referred to as "The Strong-Willed Poster Child"
To: HairOfTheDog
Lembas is like a thin corn bread.But crispy on the outside...like a stale donut.
