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.

lecithin, and mono- and di-glycerides.

And those are what exactly? - Are they animal, vegetable or mineral?

You can't expect me to ignore Dwarf-moot AND a full moon in the same week.

Not to mention the full moon AT Dwarf-moot...

Maybe I could be a meteorologist.

Ministry keeps me a meteorologist in FR. I have enough debates when I'm off on the road in ministry. Here, with ya'll, I'm just allowing myself to stay out of confrontations as much as possible. Ya'll are my comfort friends.

Lecithin is a phospholipid, the glycerides are fatty acid esters.

I inhaled! I'm on a mint high.

I suppose I'll be busy mailing mint for the next week now! BTW, those packages I sent to you and Corin are about 3 times the amount of mint that I put in my small spot in the ground 15 months ago. Twice, I've had to cut it back to only the 3' x 3' bed. It will take off in the ground.... like your catnip.

Rosie, I think that given Ruthie circumstances right now she needs lots and lots of Sam's attention. He needs a new adventure. With Ruthie.

Are you speaking in tongues? I didn't know you were a Pentecostal.

I'm sure hopin' so. I put it around the side of the house that's mostly shaded and that doesn't have any grass. Of course I'll have to keep the leaves up.

What? I think they get the lecithin from soybeans and the glycerides from soybeans and animal (cow & hog is what the literature says.) You add it to the food so that the watery parts and the oily parts will stay mixed instead of trying to separate.

Did you say you were just waiting to turn the plumber on?












or have I been hanging out with Corin's reading too long?

Better make sure I haven't killed this yet.

Plus I have my spearmint that I set out in pots. At least I think I do.

Silly me forgot what is in each pot. I know where the marigolds are and they aren't coming up. I also know I planted lettuce, cilantro, dill, spearmint and (I think) basil. Two of those are not coming up. I probably planted them outside too soon and it turned cold.

My m-i-l is coming up this weekend. Hopefully she can help me identify stuff.

I know, I know, I should've kept a diagram, but I thought "hey, it's only 5 pots, I'll remember..."
