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.

Welcome to the Hobbit Hole! Make sure and be here early in the morning so you can beat the dwarves to the bacon when breakfast comes.

I think some of them get a head start. No Fair!

Nice to meet you, Eternal Hope.

I thoroughly enjoyed "That Hideous Strength" when I read it some years ago.

Maybe we should buy porkbelly contracts. Wonder if we have enough freezer/refrigerator space.

Hello, EternalHope, and welcome to the Hobbit Hole! We're a pretty easy going bunch...so long as you don't start a discussion on the true nature of lembas...

Thanks for the welcome.

And, ahem, not to spoil my welcome, but anyone who thinks lembas are a form of lutefisk... Well, their love of the halflings leaf has clearly clouded their brain!

Great Legolas pic. BTW. I'm sending it to the Legolas fans. I don't recall seeing that one before.

Is it true that there ARE no dwarf women, and dwarves simply spring up out of the ground?

That is most assuredly NOT true.

Ah. I suspect I have met a dwarf...

I think it's a mischievous Elvish plot. They're all talking up Lembas like it's some baked delicacy. I bet when the hobbits unwrapped their mallorn leaf wrappings they had a big ol' piece of lutefish staring them in the face.

I am pretty amazed that anyone even knows what lutefisk even is. I never heard of it before getting on this thread.

Lembas is *not* mutton and fish!

Isn't it a ground and baked product of some kind of mystical elf corn?

Me neither. We don't eat stuff like that around these parts. :)

ksen is the main expert on lemba recipes. Even though Ruthy is correct that they are pastelitos.
