Just look forward to tonight then.
We had a lot of rain as well, so we broke out the wintery food already

I just had some noodles with sprinkle cheese and a peanut butter sandwich. Really hit the spot.

Oh I imagine wintery food in the Netherlands consists of edible Tulips grown in Windmill-powered greenhouses coupled with Brown, sugary waffles that contain hints of Hashish all mixed in a sweetsour sause brought directly from the Dutch East India Company in Indonesia!!

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

As someone who is ethnically mostly Irish American, married into a Dutch American family I find this hilarious.
Actually the Dutch like lots of chocolate too and even eat shaved chocolate on toast for breakfast.

Coffeehouse, don't lecture me, boy. My personal copy of LOTR is older than you are.

From the point of view of a hobbit Bilbo and Frodo lived in a comfortable house in town. It was not a 'pocket". It was not an "outpost".It had "bedrooms, bathrooms, cellars pantries" and "whole rooms devoted to clothes.". They had "lived in the neighborhood of The Hill for time out of mind." and it was "the most luxurious hobbit hole that was to be found..."

On that basis, making it sound like this : is just wrong.

They ate tulipbulbs in the winter of '45. My grandfather was stuck in the city in the hungerwinter. He said they taste real bad.

We ate a potatostew with Kale (see 'culinairy uses' for a description of what we call it)
It is very good

Yeah, my oma had tulip bulb soup during the war as well, and she concurs with your grandfather.

But it wasn't a "house", Sis... it was a hole in the ground... a (albeit very large) "pocket in the ground..."

I always assumed Bag End to mean the end of a bag... I'm not sure how that makes any coherent sense other than "Bag End" = "end of bag"...

Mari's here! *snuggle* It's so cold and rainy and miserable today, and now I have this freak headache too. But I'm home for the night though, curled up in bed with kitty and some hot chocolate. And LotR. I don't have the energy to read though, I actually have some homework to get out the way before I do anything else.

Sis... was that... was that Polly Pocket??

Katya... homework is never more important than hot chocolate, kitties, and LotR

Yeah, good point. Homework can wait, I suppose.

I'm looking at the Dutch food thing now, Mari. It makes me hungry.
