The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

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.

OK - now that I've caught up on the thread.

Corin - Welcome back, Master Dwarf. A very nice entrance and an even nicer snaig! *wink* Oh, and yes, my house is the one with the mold problem which should be resolved very soon, thank goodness. The case is in final arbitration.

Ramius - thanks for checking in and letting me know you made it back safe and sound. That pic was taken at the very beginning of the evening, so no one but yellow face is to blame for those red cheeks! *grin* It was a great time, wasn't it?

Sam Cree - I wish you could have mooted for your birthday, but it sounds like you had fun without us! LOL! And as far as our real life personalities differ from our HHD ones, you may be a bit quieter in RL, but you still are funny! Remember, it was you that spotted the lurkers at the other moot!! :)

Deb - So nice to see you! Thanks for helping ease my ROTK worries. *SMILE*

ksen - mold and mildew are easily controlled with household bleach, but it does depend on how far it has spread. If you can't make direct contact with it, the bleach fumes alone aren't enough to kill it.

SuziQ - the descriptions of the Flat Frodo pics sound so cool! I've never been to NYC, so it's double the treat for me to see those pics. Sounds like your birthday was an excellent time!

Becky - prayers for Devon's quick recovery and permanent healing. He's my nephew's age, so I can only imagine what his parents must be going through. *sigh* I also took your advice about leaving Alyson naked by taking her outside in the sun a bit. She enjoyed it and now I am worried I may have tapped into her inner streaker! YIKES! I also read about you being chased by the car thieves. SCARY!

JenB - I'm so sorry to hear about your job (and Dad's). I know that almost eveyrone goes through it at least once in their life, but the good thing is that it usually leads to a big improvement. I know it worked that way for me because if I had stayed with that job, I wouldn't be happily typing away here today!

carton253 - I will now suffer terrible flashbacks from algebra class. I see "X"s where numbers should be!! AAARRRGGGHHH!! *wink*

Wneighbor - thinking of you.

Isn't 27 awfully young for an elf?

Speaking of elf-ages...

A favorite line from The Santa Clause..."I've got pointy shoes older than you..."

Hmmm...maybe lactose intolerant? If so, you wouldn't want to give the yogurt, but you could still get the things that are in the yogurt...the acidophylus and such...at the healthfood store. They could help you find what you need and you could just sprinkle it on her bananas...

If she needs it...if she has a skin yeast infection...

If if if...

I don't know Ruthy...the answer is out there.

Sigh...

No one like her, is there?

I have that CD. And a few others. So sad that she died so young.

Is she really? I thought she was turning 26. Wasn't she born in '77?

Yeah, there's no one like Patsy. I actually have that album (from the pic I posted) on cassette. But I'm listening to "The Ultimate Collection" CD.

She's definitely lactose intolerant to an extent because I had to put her on soy formula at 2 months. My mistake was listening to my mom and trying to mix in regular whole milk instead of soy milk to begin with. *sigh*

But even after switching to soy milk and then back to straight formula, she hasn't improved. It's terrible!!

I've got "I Fall to Pieces" playing in my head now.

Think I'll locate that CD when I get home tonight. Haven't listened to it for a few months.

Here's a soy yogurt.

Whenever my kids had loose stools, yogurt was the first thing I'd try. They were never lactose intolerant though...

As a matter of fact, it reminded me that I had a whole sack of little Brown Cow yogurts...the boys are eating chocolate and I'm eating creamy coffee!

If she had lived, Princess Diana would have been 42. I adored her. I wouldn't want her life, but I would have taken her wardrobe, her skin, and her hair.
