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.

OT it sounds lovely! Very haunting and soft! Lovely!

I finished Hair's cookies. I've got them on the cooling rack...32 in all. They are made with regular oats, not instant, which makes them very chewy and hearty. I should get them in the mail tomorrow.

I've got to get some more pecans for OT's chocolate chip cookies. Rosie, chocolate chip with pecans ok with you too?

I was sort of ambivalent about Haldir in FoTR. But Myranda was gaga. The one thing I noticed about Haldir dying is.... HE DIDN'T SCREAM LIKE A WOMAN!

And I guess that sums up his character somewhat? Boromir, we can say, died bravely! Haldir...well, he didn't "scream like a woman". Woo-hoo! Way to go, Haldir!

He did look surprised, though. Kind of like that squirrel when I pushed him off a 3rd storey balcony.

Oh, now... Haldir died bravely too... if clumsily.
