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'm going with paper and pen next time to write down names/battles I want to learn more about.

If you joined us for dwarf-moot you could see some of the actual battlefields...

Yeah, Fredericksburg and Manassas are fairly close to Quantico, I believe.

Do you think folks are beginning to suspect I'm projecting when I talk about Jr's troubles?

ksen is the main expert on lemba recipes.

Yes, I am expert at avoiding these particular strains of conversation in our otherwise lovely little hole in the ground. ;^)

Both are nearby. Of course I'm here in Richmond and close to Petersburg. We also have the Museum of the Confederacy here in Richmond.

Naw, not at all! Besides, have Dwarves ever cared for the opinion of others? *grin* You crack me up!

See #19873, ksen. A popular Cuban pastry. IMO they are for breakfast, but Ruthy can say if that's correct or not.

See post 19873. They're pastries that are crispy on the inside and a bit chewy on the inside and are filled with different types of fruit or meat.

I'm bringing a bunch to Entmoot!

Any time is pastelito time, IMHO!! LOL!!

Most folks grab one or two for breakfast though.

Thank you Suzi! Please pass it around!

Also, I know it really annoys people to see advertizing on a personal website, and yes, it is in hopes of generating some money, but I really have no problem becoming an online shop...the Sponsors section is where I have links to various outlets where if you purchase something from them through my page's link I get a small percentage.

I really don't look to get a whole lot of money from it, but I thought I'd try it to see what happens. I get the commissions through Commission Junction.
