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.

What part of the state? I'm moving to Winston-Salem.

RTP area

And I'm not happy to see your FR nic "overtaxed". You want to warn me about anything?

They don't call our governor "Tax Hike Mike" for nothing.

Oh my goodness, they turned out GREAT!!!

A friend made these for me when I first had MATTHEW almost 8 years ago and I've kept the recipe and never got around to making them. I knew they were good when she made them, but I think mine actually taste better! Maybe just because they are hot from the oven...

Mine only took about 15 minutes to cook, but I have a very hot oven...

I was reading Ray Bradbury 'The Machineries of Joy' last night. He is the best, or one of them.
